Yeah, see, you should become an Athiest like me. Then you can sneak into a theater without the fear of going to hell for all eternity. Ah, life is good.
We are talking moral decision here – the fact that it is against the law is unquestionable, whether it’s wrong or not is another matter entirely. On the plus side It’s a victimless crime – if the theatre isn’t full then nobody is getting hurt. On the down side it’s a selfish act – if everyone did it all the time then cinemas would go down the tubes and movies would cease to be made.
The “I didn’t know the film would suck” is no excuse or rationalisation: you cant fault the cinema chain for your poor judgement or lack of taste – If your going to do it then at least have the balls to admit you’re being cheap.
As to the “I’m young & so cant afford it” excuse – without wishing to get into the irony of seeing Stormy use his age as an excuse for once – I say if you honestly can’t afford it and it’s the only way you can indulge your love of cinema – you go girl! more power to you.

I'll be teh first to admit that I'm cheap. But as I said, I still don't sneak into movies. I've done it once, and I don't plan on doing it again.
However, sometimes after vewing a really bad movie, like the ones I mentioned prior in this thread, I wish I had snuck in.

Why not? Having fun living off of ironic double standards, as Mr. Zero pointed out? Your parents ever wonder why it took 4 hours to see a 1 1/2 hour movie?
Im not a child.My parents know what I do and it doesnt bother them neither does being online my parents are pretty laid-back about things like that.
I try not to live double standards but I just really dont see anything really wrong about going to two movies.Im cheap heck I only make 20 bucks a week (allowance ) and I have about 2 dogs to support but I really dont want to get into that here.
You know, it sounds more like something *I* would do, fact of the matter is, I'd still respect the medium, and pay the $5.50 that I was smart enough to save and not blow on stupid ****ing "Johnson Family Vacation" aka "National Black-poons Family Vacation".
Fast forward 20 years...
I try not to live double standards, but I just don't see anything wrong about robbing two banks. Heck, I'm cheap, and the banks were right beside each other so I figured I'd save a little gas!
That's how it starts, man. Just see the movies you can afford. If you decide to keep cheating actors and their children out of a few pennies, atleast never gloat about your affliction in public again.
Not around me, anyway. I've already got more than enough reasons to dislike you, and I still find a way to tolerate you, for which you should be thankful.

I didnt pay money for that complinment of Blockbuster Rewards card and for future movies ill use my "Passion" card to rent the new flicks not spending any money at all
Ah, yes, I guess we're back working the KMC weekday 7 am shift after everyone else has turned in about 3 hours ago. I think I'm going to go cubicle hopping today since it's Friday. But of course I'll pay full price for each cubicle, literally, since each one I visit will probably give me a new assignment.
I will bet you can get your dogs into the movies at a discount. Then the three of you wouldn't have to keep running from theater to theater or pay such a high cost at the box office.
