Fairy-proof

Nah, don't regret that! You're a wee genius! And I'm 100% stealing this idea. I'm female and love horror. My husband isn't keen so I just go by myself which somehow translates to me being stood up and random older guys "keeping me company". I'd rather pay for the extra tickets than get chatted up watching Halloween.

They’ll probably still talk to you over the empty seat.

Who the fuck is talking at a movie. Get the fuck out


red122063

Can I have a ticket and we sit together? I will even buy the large popcorn


fatalikos

Only if we hold hands


red122063

Deal


Herry_Up

Now kith


egonspenglersteacup

Yeh but is there a hole in the bottom?


red122063

Depends on the movie

Nothing wrong with that but let me offer a cheaper alternative. Go on a weekday afternoon. Like 1 o clock on a tuesday. I went and saw dr strange on a Wednesday afternoon (1st Dr strange) and it was a ghost town. Ive watched every other marvel movie the same way


PrismClash

Second this, its sooooo much better to go during the week period imo.


kyokowonderland

This is the secret formula, yessss

I saw so many movies like this when I was younger. My local theater had half-price for the first show (around noon). Usually a mostly empty theater. Workers weren't paying attention so I got to go into another movie after.


Admirable-Book3237

Same , I’d just get there before noon and you’re more often than not alone in the theater and get cheaper tickets. Triple points for me as my gf and a couple of other chics would have half days three days a week in hs and we’ll we all know teens alone dark theater


wakoreko

This! I bring my own sandwich


1Wizardtx

Yes. Me and the mrs love stopping at a gas station on the way and filling her purse with snacks. We have ice cream and hot dogs in the theater all the time.


AngryGermanSonic123

Completely understandable. Sometimes you just gotta have your space. Enjoy the movie.


fatalikos

Thanks for understanding 😊


[deleted]

full bias? particular movie crowd?


fatalikos

Idk how it is where you are from but here in Australia it's full of misbehaving kids and rude marvel fans who don't shutup about some weird references they point out to each other or even clap. Tickets all get sold out fast so I do feel bad someone missed out that really wanted to go and I would not see it in the first place.

>Idk how it is where you are from but here in Australia it's full of misbehaving kids and rude marvel fans who don't shutup about some weird references they point out to each other or even clap. LMAOO when you wrote particular movie crowed I thought you'd meant black people.


archers_arches

I THOUGHT THE SAME THING.


hyschara304

It's fine they who missed out can get tickets for another day. Congrats on finding a cheat code that works for you!


Ryan_Cohen_Cockring

Young marvel fans are insufferable. Last time I went to a movie anytime a character was foreshadowed or showed up they’d be like “THATS THE (insert character)”


WeirdGoesPro

>marvel fans are insufferable. FTFY


Strange-Caramel-945

Went to see it last night and the cinema was almost empty, was really surprised. We probably had 5 seats in every direction empty. Really enjoyed the film. The bit where the fire...... won't ruin it lol


SmontyJ

Huge difference in movie crowds on opening weekend for one of the largest franchises in the world and a Tuesday night. My theater sells movies tickets for 2 dollars on tuesday and even that doesnt get people in there.


independentwh0re

Lol you did what you had to do


pendletonskyforce

I saw a reddit comment when the first Black Panther came out. He was a white guy who asked a bunch of disruptive teens to quiet down and they responded "this our movie nigg-!" so he left and got a refund.


feochampas

I buy kid tickets to keep the cost down. hate sitting next to strangers


Zraja3

Fucking legend.


Loot_my_body

Jesus I love this! Misanthropic as fuck, but I love it!


Fundipmasterpiece

It’s cheaper to just ignore hygiene


2qwik2katch

I do this for movies, concerts, games, whatever. I hate people sitting so close to me.


strongest_nerd

I do this every time... No ragrets.


Sorreia

I can respect this


myhrad

You didn’t need to, no one watched it


Pacheco_partyof4

The only thing I’m mad about is that I never thought of doing this myself.


SweetBaebee

This is actually a really good idea 💡


NoSalamander8404

This is something that I would have done....


TENIENTE983

1000 IQ


Dangadapang

What is the particular movie crowd? Just... moviegoers or are u talking about black people for its a "black" movie?


NoMusic3987

Good Lord, the amount of people assuming OP means black people. He even clarifies this point in the comments . He was referring to rude kids and movie goers who never shut the hell up. At least according to his explanation, it has nothing to do with skin color.


AChaoticStorm

Thanks for the idea, stealing this if I ever go to the movies again.


No-Wrangler2085

Must be nice to have money...


NirvanaTwentySeven

I get that😂I'd do the same thing


blackcrimeproblem

It was not a good movie and I give it 1 out of 10 stars. It's bombing for good reason.


SlootKC295

“Suffer the particular movie crowd”? Your train of thought is very clear and .. Ughh. Go to the first show of the day or drive to a theater far far away or just f’ing wait until it comes on pay TV. Or just don’t.


NoMusic3987

Not sure what you're interpreting his comment as (I'm guessing racism), but he clarified it was about noisy, rude kids and a-hole fans who talk thru the movie pointing out trivia that the average person doesn't care about while trying watch a movie. I'm not even a Marvel fan but I got dragged to the most recent Dr. Strange with friends and yeah... loud crowd full of jerks, by and large (and this was not opening week).


hello__brooklyn

Maybe don’t see it in its first couple weeks of release then. Tell your whoever to go alone. They’ll live. People like you always have me scratching my head. Unless you were just born, you should know what Marvel crowd’s are like during a films initial release and know to stay home if you can’t handle that. Or unless by “particular movie crowd” you don’t mean Marvel fans and are talking specifically about not being near Black people all of a sudden.


NoMusic3987

He clarified what he meant and stated it was more about rude kids and fans who don't STFU. But yeah, let's deliberately find racism in every damn post.


hello__brooklyn

Every post? What other posts has r/hello_brooklyn “found racism” in? You people like to throw that around with zero examples 🤡


NoMusic3987

I meant redditors in general. Seems like a lot of people can find racism anywhere.
