    Speaking as a former movie theater employee, I didn’t care when people brought in food, drinks, etc of their own. The thing that bugged me about it was when they left the trash from their own food behind. Show some respect and clean up after yourself.

      Patrick Chubey I’m not exactly sure but my best guess is all hallways, I doubt they’re allowed in the theatre because that could copyright the movie but it’s possible they’re in the back and pointed down away from the screen, other than that they’re in all the hallways, the lobby, behind the stand and the entrance

  • @tmccalmont
    @tmccalmont 6 лет назад +123

    As a movie theater owner, I can tell you the very first "fact" they list is wrong, After two months, the film companies still take some of the profits. While most film rentals decrease quite a bit after two months, some films remain at the same percentage, say 65%, for the entire run of the film. Most films aren't making much after 8 weeks, but the film companies are typically still taking about 35%, or so. For older films that are no longer in regular release, the distributors at least charge a minimum, even if it's $250. In over 20 years of theater ownership, I've never had a film company let us take 100% of the profits. Ever.
    Also, not EVERY theater has cameras on you as you watch the movie. We don't. We do have employees walk the theaters to check for issues, but we're not watching your every move. Not only would that be kind of creepy, it's dark. It would be pretty expensive to equip several auditoriums with numerous cameras that are capable of producing a decent image in dark conditions.

    @mckenna8663 6 лет назад +558

    Truth - those seats, railings, armrests...are NEVER cleaned. I worked at a major theater franchise. We had a corporate manager coming in to check out the theater. So all of us had to work overnight one night to clean up the theaters. Even then, we weren't cleaning the seats. We were using black Sharpies to fill in any divots in railings and armrests. We were making sure that the walls weren't ripped. And looking out for any major problems. Now if that's the extent of what they're going to do when a corporate manager is coming by, do you think they're going to work as hard any specific day? Absolutely not. Yes we did have a cleaning crew come in overnights, but all they did was vacuum, clean the bathrooms, clean the concession area, wash the windows, and clean up any major spills in the theater aisles.
    So those seats you're sitting in and resting your head back in... Never been cleaned. It's enough to make you want to only watch Netflix and Redbox. After working in the theatre, that's what I do.

    The camera thing isn't true. I worked for Regal for years and yes, some very large, very busy theaters have them but it's not as common as this makes it sound. That's why you'll see employees walk the theater 2 or 3 times during the movie. Checking things out.

    • @717jeezy

      It's just an added expense for the theater to add on top of other expenses that could be done away with .. especially when you can just have your employees just check it out . Some theaters just have an attendant near the entrance in case you need them for whatever during large audience viewings.

  • @zackthefreeman
    @zackthefreeman 6 лет назад +35

    It’s worth mentioning that since they make all their money on concessions, theatres are very easily convinced to offer refunds. If you go to a theatre and something about your experience isn’t great, tell the staff. Or you can call and even sometimes email a representative that will offer movie passes to make up for the experience. Since the theatre doesn’t make much on the actual film, giving free passes will encourage people to come back and spend more money on concessions.

    • @jackpabich763

    We went to a Century Theatre, and had major laughs as the pre show touted the new state of the art theater. Unfortunately the projector bulb was out and we got 8 minutes of a blank screen. They finally put in a new light, and gave everyone a free pass to another movie in addition to showing the original film.

    I worked at 4 different movie theatres and none of them had cameras in the auditoriums. Occasionally we would step inside to make sure things were going okay or if we suspected there might be problems, but that's about it. Sometimes when a sneak preview would happen the security hired by the studios may watch you from the projection booth or stand in the auditorium wearing night vision goggles, but that's about it. There might be some theatres out there with cameras, but it's probably not as many as you think.
    They are right about the projectionists, I'd say the amount of time someone is up there is probably less than 16 hours a week and they aren't running the movies, they're scheduling or cleaning.

    Okay, let me clear some stuff up because I work at a movie theater, Cinemark at least. First, we do check where you’re going, you will get turned away if you’re underage. We don’t watch you while you’re watching the movie, we check in to see how many people are in a theater occasionally but we don’t watch anyone. Piracy rewards (500 dollars as he says) actually aren’t awarded anymore. We used to get 200 but now we get nothing for catching pirates. We don’t care if you have outside food, do what you want movie theater food is better. 3D glasses don’t actually cause motion sickness, it’s a placebo. There is no booth in the upper area for a projector, not just no one in there, no booth at all. Even on busy movie nights (I’ve cleaned up on Star Wars multiple times which are the busiest nights) we have time in between to clean, the schedule makes sure for that. Fights don’t barely ever occur, in my 2 years I’ve never see one fight happen or heard of any fights. Also, there’s no cameras in the theaters, they are entirely private.
    Stay informed!

      People used to ask me all the time if the popcorn was fresh, one particular day I had cleaned the popper myself and then started it the next morning. I almost bit the ladies head off because I personally threw out all the popcorn and started a new batch the next day. XD I was grumpy that morning we closed at midnight.

    • @tristanwilson7381
      @tristanwilson7381 5 лет назад +2

      Nah, we clean the popcorn poppers nightly and throw away leftover popcorn at the end of the night if none of the employees want it. Only time we've ever kept popcorn overnight was when a company bought out a couple of theaters and prepaid for 750 boxes of popcorn for their shows at 8am the next day.

      at the theatre I work at we bag up several large bags at the end of the night ( we offer free refills on large popcorn/drinks) so if anyone wants one on the way home it is ready. all other left overs are bagged in big yellow plastic bags and stored downstairs for about a week. A local pig farmer comes and picks it up once a week or so for his piggies - they love popcorn.

    The worst cinema experience I've ever had was in an IMAX theater. Back in Dec. 2016, we go and went to see Rogue One: A Star Wars Story on my local IMAX in 2D. So we got there and purchased two tickets (I'm with my mom) that says 3D on it, and some IMAX employee made an announcement that there will be a "reformat" to 2D. I was really confused because the website said 2D, and the ticket said 3D and that made sense. We went inside the theater, the IMAX intro played in 3D!!! Including the movie, I can't watch the entire movie in 3D without glasses. I went outside and told an employee (one of my embarrassing moments of my life) and I said to him that the movie played in 3D and maybe they are handing out glasses. I went inside the theater again, and saw the movie finally in 2D. I knew, an IMAX theater has a projectionist behind it. Now thank god that only the few seconds were in 3D, then a minute it became 2D. My knowledge that the employee told the projectionist that the movie is in 3D. If they can play 3D, why not make it 3D. The movie played in 2D by turning of the right projector (IMAX Digital). That is one of the worst moments of my life. And btw, we are allowed to bring any food inside the theater.

    I work at Cinemark so this is my opinion on the list.
    1. Yes that is obvious thought everyone knew that.
    2. Lol that hardly happens anymore. Yes some people are able to sneak in. But definitely not often.
    3. Yeah that happens too but most of the time it's obvious that they bought the ticket to sneak in and we grab them
    4. Never happened at my theater. I know it happens in the example you give, but that movie RAW shows someone eating human flesh so yeah.
    5. We have a bag policy that you can't bring in backpacks and stuff but we employees are chill about other stuff you have.
    6. Personally I don't like 3D films. That being said whenever I have watched a 3D movie I've never felt this way. More of a personal problem rather than a movie theater problem.
    7. While no there's no one up there we can change some things. But yes you have to come tell us
    8. We have enough time to clean up and when someone spilled something we can usually take care of it in the time allowed
    9. Lol never seen it happen yet in my theater, looking forward to it.
    10. We don't have cameras in our theater at all, anywhere. So no on that one. Can't say about the more expensive ones through. They probably do

    #6 is nonsense. "When you put the glasses on, your eyes are telling your brain, that you're moving." lol What? That happens in VR. Simple stereoscopic movies aren't immersive enough for that. In comparison, they are still kind of flat and you can still see the room around you, destroying any illusion of self-movement or being in the movie...
    The problem with 3D movies lies within our depth-perception. When we look at something, both eyes aim for that object and their gazes cross at the object in a certain angle, depending on the distance. The eyes then have to move their lenses, to focus the object, so we see a sharp image.
    Each of these two steps, independent of one another, allows the brain to estimate how far away the object is. And they give the same estimates. All your life, an object that was 10m away also looked like it was 10m away.
    Unless it's a 3D movie on a screen! Your eyes aim at objects of virtually varying distances (projected image), even though they focus these objects at a different physical distance (actual surface of the screen).
    This dissonance gives people a headache. All your life your brain was certain, that it was able to estimate the distance to an object just by looking at it. And suddenly things don't add up anymore. It's an optical illusion and your brains feels it.

    Just please don’t blame employees for pricing. Its all corporate decision, not even the general manager of the theater is aloud to do anything about it, nor the district managers. Pretty much the COO of a theater chain can really do anything with that. So go to corporate with price problems, not employees, they just work there and are trying to get home, and dont think they get paid so much because of how expensive everything is, its minimum wage, even for the managers for some chains, and managers have to deal with projection, customer service, safety, cleanliness, money, stock, and keeping employees under control. What ever you do, just be gentle with theater employees. They work there, their trying to pay bills, and its hard to listen to an outrageous customer when you’re having to deal with 1000 with a shift. Be gentle. And half of this video is false lol.

      @HolidayDecorator 6 лет назад +1

      +Justin Jaramillo, that's not entirely true either. Don't know where this person gets their info, but many times it is misinformation and not even close to accurate. There is a person there, they are now UNION CONTRACTED, if you don't belong to some kind of projectionists union, you can't even get a job in a movie theater running the projection equipment. I was a projectionist many years ago, no union, but with all the new techno stuff, well seems the rules have changed. But there is someone up there, it's just that they are operating every projector up there, so they may not be in the same theater when the projector has a breakdown, but they eventually get to it because there are alarms and idiot lights on them to alert them to issues. They are always in sight or hearing of these alarms. It just may take them a little time to get to the issue because of the number of projectors they're trying to keep up and running.
      In my day it was 2 projectors, now theaters can be as low as 6 viewing rooms up to 30 or more, can you imagine trying to keep up with a room of 20 or 30 projectors? I couldn't do it, not now. And many times they only have one, maybe 2 projectionists on duty to take care of issues.
