The movie theaters be doing too much now
Summary
Movie theaters have gone overboard with their premium amenities, and this rider has strong opinions about where to draw the line. He's fine with reclined seats and even Thai chili wings, but all-day brunch service with waiters interrupting the film? That's too much. The problem isn't just the food, it's that you can't even sneak in your own snacks anymore when there's constant table service. He's willing to drop $100 at the theater like it's an amusement park, but he'd rather watch the movie than stare at the menu. Kareem points out that plenty of theaters offer recliners without the full restaurant experience. The rider also vents about his $11 Americano that arrived in a bag, which apparently ruined his whole morning.

So, what's your take? The movie theaters be doing too much now. 100% disagree with the lie back seats. I went to the movie theaters and they were doing all day brunch. I love all day brunch. They were doing all day brunch. They had Thai chili wings. That's great. My chicken tenders had three different sauces. You don't want to be able to eat chicken wings with Thai chili sauce in the movie. You need to have like limits on this because it's not okay. It's like you got three people in the front. Some somebody's eating crab legs. People got like French toast and then you have a waiter coming through the whole movie. Excuse me. Sorry. Excuse me. Sorry. Excuse me. Sorry.
So, you don't like the food? You don't like when the seats move? I like it, but there there needs to be a limit. I think the sky is the limit. Popcorn drink. Nachos, maybe. Seat with a slight in recline. Hot dogs. Hot dogs are cool. Cotton candy? No. Big diet coke? Yes. Beef jerky? Yes. Corn on the cob? No.
You don't want to have corn on the cob? No. It's it smells crazy in here.
Hey, to each their own. When I go to the movie theater, I'm literally willing to spend $100. It's like an amusement park. There's just too much going on. I'm like looking at the food the whole time the movie. You can't sneak stuff in anymore cuz there's like a waiter all the time.
No, you can sneak stuff in. I'm having trouble. You just got to get the same stuff that's on the menu. So, I got to get all day brunch. I got to sneak in the brunch. Sneak in with a with scrambled eggs. That's crazy.
Also, here's the deal. There are other movie theaters that don't have those accuchants. I want a reclined seat. I don't want a waiter. There are theaters with reclined seats and no waiters. Well, send me in that direction.
What else has got? What else is on your mind? This is upsetting to me. I got this this morning.
What is that? It's an Americana and they put it in a in bag.
An Americana in a bag? How much was that?
This was $11. That's way too much. They put in a bag and you shouldn't be able to do this. You ruined my whole morning. They're serving coffee out of a damn bag. Well, I'll see you at the movies.
All right.
