I usually get popcorn (with extra butter-type sauce), and, of course, a soda. (I am after all the Soda Tyrant. :mrgreen: )

The best thing is that my local theater has Barq's Root Beer! Yays!

Soda 'n' candy. YAAAAAAAY!

Since you didn't mention that, Other.

That's probably because you're getting soda with caffeine in it. Caffiene's a diuretic. Try something like Sprite. Or, Mountain Dew (if you live in Canada, anyway, since it doesn't have any caffeine there).

You know where I live, silly. :P But soda's a liquid anyway, and ALL liquids do that.

However, I DID buy ice cream when I went to go see Pirates just the other day. Actually, that was a pretty good Move. No crunching and extra-tasty! But still way expensive... though I've never had cotton candy ice cream anywhere else. Mmm.

I usually get a popcorn, and since I don't drink my calories, I get one of the big bottled waters.

Every once in a while I get nachos as well, or if I'm really starved, I get a hot dog.

Most (or probably all) movie theaters in Hawaii also have mochi crunch, so sometimes I get that to pour in my popcorn. Mmmm...

I get a frozen coke. Or a slushy. Or a squishy. Or whatever you want to call it. Basically it's coke or pepsi or something gone slushy and cold. They're at all our cinemas.

Candy and Soda, or sometimes Candy and an Icee.

Soda makes me have to pee during the show, and popcorn makes me have to drink which makes me have to pee during the show.

I tend to avoid both. :cheatgrin:

Haven't you ever heard of sneaking food into a movie? Everyone does it.

Since when? How would they get much into the movies. I can see maybe a really small bag of peanuts in your pocket, but nothing bigger. Plus, what about drinks.

Dude, I managed to bring a whole cheesesteak sub and a large Coke into my movie theater. It's not that hard. All you need is some large pockets and you're good to go.

As far as buying food goes, I always get "the classic". Popcorn and soda.

I'll get whatever. Popcorn with the flavour sprinkles, Twizzlers/Nibs, Glossettes, Skittles... usually snuck in...

Fun times:
Buy popcorn and sour Skittles.
Remove yellow Skittles from bag.
Insert into popcorn bag and shake.
Share with a loved one.
This made Matrix 3 a lot more fun for me and Susan.

Nachos, which I usually eat about seven of and then eat all the cheese out. =D If I have more money, I might buy an unhealthily large icee anda pack of nibs or something.

Nachos are pretty tasty, but I always miss with the cheese. I can't get nachos without getting the cheese all over...

Every time I go, I sneak in Mr. Pibb and Red Vines.

Sorry, I couldn't help myself.

Sno-Caps. They've become a movie requirement for me.

Usually I'll get a small popcorn and sneak a bottle of soda in, too.

Crazy delicious.

(Fun fact: You can't get Mr. Pibb in Hawaii. I haven't had it in ages. I'd probably break my no-soda rule just for Mr. Pibb.)

You can use all of them, but then you can see them against the popcorn and what fun is that?

You could chew with your mouth closed, you know. And as for the peeing thing, there's a bathroom outside the theater for a reason. ;)

It doesn't help. You still have to leave the theater, and you can hear yourself crucnhing INSIDE your head.

Besides, I try to avoid eating necessary junk food.
