What are some cool ideas you would like to see for a movie theater? Have you ever gone to a theater and thought "it would be such a good idea for them to have ....."? What are the things you like the most about going to a theater to watch a movie ? What don't you like?
For example: What about something similar to a corking fee where you could bring your own food and drink but be charged a fee per person?
Just any cool ideas yall have.
I've always thought Theaters could use better seats.
I dont feel comfortable when the theater is super packed with all those people bunched up ontop of one another.
Maybe make sections, if you have to pay abit more for the seats than do it. I'd pay to have a VIP type experience.
Cool, so maybe smaller theaters (number of seats) with a little more room in between.
What about a reserved seat(s) system? So instead of having to rush or wait in line, when you purchase your tickets you get to reserve the seat/row you want when you purchase and the seats are numbered and easy to find - kind of like an airline? Or even maybe the Southwest Airlines model where when you purchase a ticket you get a group number so even if you show up last minute (as long as it is before the movie is seated) you get put in to the group (for example: group 1-30, 31-60...)
Yeah that's another good idea.
It'd be cool to pick your smartphone, buy your ticket through whatever movie app and be assigned to whatever section of the theater. No line or whatever.
It helps speed up the process.
Ya plus you don't have to get there really early to get a great seat. All you have to do is purchase your ticket early enough to get a good seat.
Good prices
You think 12 or 13 bucks is too much?
So what do you think is fair prices? What about the places that serve full restaurants/bar?
Also, besides price, what are the features/value things you would like to see?
Well I'm happy to pay like $10 for a film if I really like it but the local cinema that has $6 tickets is what I usually pick. I have trouble paying big money to see a film that will make a lot of money. I'm a poor student
Seats with built in toilets
I always pee right before watching a movie to make sure I don't have to step out during a screening, and if I bring a bottle of water or soda, I only take 2 or 3 small sips
And of course air freshener, potpourri, etc
For sure - price is definitely a big deal - especially for something you don't need and is a luxury. Do your theaters not have student discount?Well I'm happy to pay like $10 for a film if I really like it but the local cinema that has $6 tickets is what I usually pick.

Allowed to punch people who talk and answer phones
Well, that isn't legal, so I don't think that would happen.
It's a pity, nothing more annoying that loud people in cinema
I thought they already had that...
when I left L.A. in 2005 there was a theater that had wide plush leather seats and served food, wine,etc...I'm sure there are others all over by now.
I kind of feel the opposite...I don't go much to the theater anymore because the home systems are getting ridiculously good...my big screen and decent sound system are actually not far from the theater experience. A blu ray movie on a nice screen and sound system aren't bad at all when you consider the fact that you can watch in the comfort of your own home.
All movie theaters should be required to have stadium seating so you don't have to worry about people with in' big heads. Babies and little pecker kids should not be allowed to view movies that are rated PG-13 or R even if they have a parent. No one wants to hear a baby in cry while they are watching a movie especially if it's an R rated movie. Heavy breathing should be banned too. Breath through your damn nose.
Sodas and food should be available at your seat somehow. There should be a slot for you to enter paper money or a credit card and food and drink can pop up on top of the arm rest or the side of the seat.
The only commercials you should have to watch are trailers for movies. That means you shouldn't have to sit and watch something about ty TNT shows like the Closer and Rizzoli and Isle or some redneck show on Discovery or History.
I don't want to see a behind the scenes look at a commercial for Storage Wars right before I'm going to see the Amazing Spiderman in 3D.
Oh how could I forget, ads before films can go up to 30 minutes. OFF
So in the event of an assigned seat, you wouldn't have to worry about that, correct?
I haven't been to the movies in quite some time.
Last movie I went to see was Avater. lol
Do they really show tv ads now? That's ridiculous.
Trailers are bad enough to be honest.
The commercials before the movie trailers are usually ty but there were some memorable ones. I remember the ones where it was about talking during the movie and it had directors Martin Scorsese and Sydney Pollack directing people that were talking to someone on their phones. Those were funny.
I haven't been to a local theater in 10 years. I go when I am out of town and there's nothing else to do, but I have a good home theater, don't need to go out. Some say "you have to see this on the big screen". No you don't. It looks better (to me) on my flat panel and can control everything. Sure you have to wait, but that normally only bothers people who watch movies every night and are "caught up".
I mainly go to the movies as an escape from reality. When you go see a movie in a movie theater, you're focused on the movie and don't give a about your own personal problems and drama.
Until someone comes through the back door and shoots you in the head.
I know done in bad taste but still
