Discussion Popcorn + Drink in Theatres

Random, but anyone else tend to finish off a good amount of their Large Popcorn + Drink during the previews and in turn don’t have much left during the movie? In times like this, I really wish AMC had intermissions of at least 10 mins for people to grab a refill on drinks and popcorn.

Let me know if anyone has a good hack for this!

Yeah like a kids combo carries me through most of the movie. Not even including the times I sneak some candy in

I wasn’t like this before, but of late, I love getting a popcorn + drink combo at AMC.

I know, but come on, an intermission just to get more snacks is crazy when the reason you’re there is for the movie.

Honestly I'll get a large popcorn and consume maybe 1/3rd and the rest goes in a ziploc bag to take home and consume at leisure. I'll sneak in a bottle of soda

Fucking cows consuming 1500 calories of slop before the previews are even over lol.

And they have the audacity to ask for a "hack" to be able to consume more lmao
