Cinema - Walking into another movie after yours has finished.

Does anyone regularly do this? Ever gotten caught?

For anybody working in cinemas, do you catch people doing this regularly?

Saila · 02-08-2011 12:38AM

so you want to steal everyones ideas and put them on tipsbymark and pass them off as your own :mad:

joshrogan · 02-08-2011 12:38AM

No, my video camera only has enough memory for one movie so I have to leave everytime it is full.

bonerm · 02-08-2011 12:40AM

Yeah I did it once recently. Got caught too. It was sooo embarrasing. They just stood over me with this look of disgust on their faces and then asked what was I doing wasting my time at a Captain America screening?

LighterGuy · 02-08-2011 12:43AM

I did it once in Cineworld. Wouldnt recommend it. They're watching like hawks. Then you got that awkward moment where you pretend to have tickets but lost them blah blah.

Aoifey! · 02-08-2011 12:45AM

I've done it a few times, works best if there's an upstairs in the cinema as there aren't generally many workers around. I used to hide in the bathroom til all the people from the first had left and then walk into the next one as the crowd was coming.

That makes me sound like such a scabby bastard

Did it when I was a teenager,think I saw Ocean's 12 and then snuck into Meet The Focker's for some reason.

It was during the day in Liffey Valley so was fairly easy.

I got into Avatar for free but I had to go out and pay then because I didn't have the bloody glasses. It was so simple, I literally walked straight by the workers.

I hadn't seen any other film before going in though.

GaryMunster · 02-08-2011 01:13AM

I worked in omniplex for 3 years. You always see people doing it and the guilt on some peoples faces is hilarious, might kick normal people out depending on my mood but I ALWAYS kicked knackers out.

Frank Black · 02-08-2011 01:15AM

I don't think I've the required ass stamina to watch 2 movies in a row.

sock puppet · 02-08-2011 01:22AM

No way I'd spend that much time in a cinema! I'd have gotten rickets by the time I came out.

There isn't even a cinema in my county...

MrStuffins · 02-08-2011 02:50AM

Did it once years ago. Went to see that DREADFUL Guy Ritchie movie Revolver. It was so bad we felt cheated so we decided we'd sneak into another movie about to start.

We sat down, pleased as punch we hadn't been caught.

It was Revolver again. Ball*cks!

What exactly does the necessary size of a town to become a city have to do with cinemas? There's a 9 screen cinema here in Arklow ffs, so wherever yer man is from must be pretty bloody rural to only have a lone screen.

Da Shins Kelly · 02-08-2011 03:05AM

I've always wanted to try this, but my friends are such bloody do-gooders that I don't think they'd do it with me, and I wouldn't have the balls to do it on my own (although I'd probably be less likely to get caught if I was on my own, but who wants to go to a film on their own?).

mgmt · 02-08-2011 03:31AM

I do it lots of times with my gf. Easy to do in the Savoy upstairs and UGC in Dublin.

I spend 20 hours a day on the internet so I probably could, except I never leave the house.
