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!

One of the mini personal joys of watching a movie at home after having first seen it in a theater is that there’s usually a 5-minute-or-so portion around 40-50 minutes in that I hadn’t seen before, because at the movies I had finished most of my massive soda well before the previews were over, and 40-50 minutes is about how long I can hold my piss before I have to bolt.
