    They agreed but the employee apparently insisted on sitting next to them to monitor the snack situation.

    Instead of… telling them to take the snacks back out to the car? There’s no situation where that isn’t weird to me. Were there no other theaters to be cleaned, patrons to be helped, tickets to be sold, anything else, they just have this extra guy with literally nothing else to do but watch this family not eat the food they brought in?

      Yep, seriously, is he thinking if he’s extra hard on these visitors then no one else will smuggle food in? Because they’re not earning any more money by disallowing this family to eat their snacks.

      And they’re hopefully losing customers over this shitshow, too.

        Pathetic, small men who relish in wielding any power they have to fuck over normal people make my blood boil. From the lowly movie theater grunt in NZ to the plethora of elected officials in the US, they all need to get knocked down a peg. Let people live their lives for Christs sake.

          Yea seriously. The LAST type of person that deserves it is the dipshit that will flex it.

      Where I live in you can bring stuff in but you can’t snack it during the viewing. Also, did we know that they came in with a car?
