Is there still a thought that the next movie isn’t being made?

New to this thread, great seeing the honesty, tips and experiences. I’m on my first 30 days of Wolverine and when I needed my second vial, my doctor called it into a local compounding pharmacy, where I went and picked it up. I assumed everyone does this; until I got inundated with social media ads from labs in China, etc. So I’m just curious: how many of you go to a compounding pharmacy versus ordering online from random sellers?

AMC experience vs. Alamo Drafthouse: two movies within 24 hours

I’ve been an AMC A-List member for at least five years now. Shout out to the family here, because I actually do love seeing what all of you post.

Some of my friends have Alamo Drafthouse’s version of A-List, so as fate would have it, I ended up seeing movies at both within about 24 hours.

One night, I went to the AMC in Century City, California. For those of you who aren’t familiar, that’s one of the bigger AMC locations, and the ticket prices are usually over $20, so it’s definitely on the pricier side.

I saw The Tuner, which is very much a movie for adults. I liked the movie. I thought the lead actor did a great job, and it was an interesting spin on a heist movie.

But in terms of the actual theater experience: 1. The seats didn’t recline, which genuinely shocked me for the price. 2. The people sitting behind me were four girls/women who looked like they were probably in their late teens or early twenties. They had their phones on, were talking, commenting, giggling, and kicking my seat multiple times.

I turned around and looked at them, and they just kept doing it. Rather than suffer through it or go complain, I moved to an empty seat. When I got up to move, they started clapping.

Now contrast that with Alamo Drafthouse in downtown Los Angeles, which is a similar price point. The seats were vinyl, reclined, and looked newly redone, with no cracks or anything like that. And the audience behavior was, wait for it, people sitting there watching the movie. And eating, obviously, because it’s Alamo.

So I couldn’t help but wonder: does AMC just attract a lower level of moviegoer with worse manners?

Both theaters were in Los Angeles. Both were evening showings. Neither movie was for kids or families. And shout out to the person who previously said to try going during the daytime or working hours to avoid some of the riffraff, but that didn’t really apply here.

What do you think? Is this just a one-off, or does AMC attract a different type of moviegoer compared with places like Alamo? Like, is it basically the movie theater version of Walmart versus Target?
