David,

Stand by your concession stand confection convictions!Don't be swayed by pessimistic popcorn protests! I think you should absolutely try it out on the 17th and see how it goes.

According to the previous post David was not going to sell POPCORN and blame folk here on this forum for NOT selling it.

Frankly I couldn't care less if you serve popcorn or fish and chips or whatever, but this is an internet site and folk can express there likes or dislikes on a particular subject....that's life.

Sadly I won't be able to go this year, knee problems no driving till mid December. [Mad] I needed to buy some projector lamps.

I would have bought a bag of Walkers EXTRA CRUNCHY crisps to take though. [Big Grin]

You should visit my local Videma where you can have a pint of beer while watching the film! And they still have the Intermission.

I love the smell of film in the morning.

They would need an intermission for the boozers to go to the toilet [Big Grin]

Certainly the cinema I last worked at had a "alcohol ban" we never sold it, or allowed anyone into the cinemas with it.

There were times when people did arrive with alcohol, sometimes hidden, they could leave it behind the counter and collect it when they leave, which most did without any problem.

The danger with allowing alcohol into the cinema, was some folk can become a problem fueled up with booze to deal with. Its just not worth the hassle.

Graham.
