DVD is not my favorite way to see a movie. I do prefer a movie theatre. However there is so many things that bother me when I go to the movies.
1) The lines! With multiplex's taking over the movie business the public now gets stuck
in huge lines. Even if the movie they want to see is not the big movie of the weekend.
In most cities now there is one line to buy tickets. There is 400 people in line and one
cashier to handle the sales! There should always be 4 people selling tickets!
The line moves also moves SLOW because of the following:
A) Lots of customers are stupid! When Superman Returns was playing it was showing
on 4 screens! The showtime's were 11:00 11:30 12:00 12:30 2:00 2:30 3:00
3:30 5:00 5:30 6:00 7:00 7:30 8:00 10:00
I was seeing the 1:00 showing! The time was 12:30
The customer & Box office had this conversation
Cust "2 for Superman"
Box Office What showtime?
Cust: "what'
Box Office "The 12:30 or 1:00" or later
After an endless conversation the customer finally figured out the movie was longer than 30
minutes.
B) Customers Wait in line and then figure out what movie their going to see right when they
reach the box office.
c) Teenage girls in packs are the worse. 3 of them will form a semi -circle around a
the box office window! They ask the same questions and each pays one at a time!
They never seem to ever herd of a single file line!
D) Credit cards! Why?? This slows down the line! Cash Only!
E) Customers do not have their money ready! They have been waiting in line for 20 min
then after the tickets get rang up they get their money out!
The SNACK BAR LINE MOVES AS SLOW AS THE LINE AT THE DMV
After you bought your movie ticket your hungry! You want your popcorn and coke. Now after the 20 minute line at the box office your now subject to the SNACK BAR LINE.
PROBLEMS
1) The snack bar where I go have go to get rid of the different sizes!
Solution There should be only 2 sizes you can buy of popcorn or coke! They have 4!
Problem 2) Credit cards slow down the line.
Solution Cash only.
Problem 3) Customers do not have there money ready.
Solution Have signs they say "For customer courtesy please have payment method ready".
Problem 4) The same teenage girls are now doing the semi circle at the snack bar. Each
asking the same question. They all talk about what there getting and so on.
Solution: Have a rope system at the Snack Bar and a sign that says "Single File Lines Only!
Problem 5) I am sick of pennies. The line would move faster is the snack bar did not charge
charge sales tax! The snack bar should sell everything rounded to a quarter. This
would eliminate the need for nickles dimes and pennies at the Snack Bar! The
line would move faster.
Problem 6) Not enough workers!
Solution Hire more people!
The Movie Auditorium
Stop showing us adds! Were getting away from TV.
Problem
Cellphones! People think they are important when there cells go off! Please if your not a doctor you don't need it!
Solution
There should be a cellphone jammer. Customers should only be allowed to use their phone outside.
Problem
Cellophane on candy boxes! It seems like to me that people wait to open that in the middle of the movie!
Solution
The Snack Bar should only sell items that do not require cellophane.
Problem
Late comers! Customers come in after your all settled. You have to get up to let them in!
Solution
Tickets should stop being sold 5 minutes before the movie starts!
Problem
A crying Baby and young children
Solution
Children under 5 are not permitted in to see any movie that is PG-13 or R. Children under 16 must also be accompanied by a parent or guardian for an evening showing!
