Valentines Day. A day to express love.

As a Cinema Worker, I find it ironic that I have a lot if hatred for it.

Cos visitors have the love of leaving tons of rubbish after watching their film. 😡

Been away for too long. SO much to put up with. Speaking of which:

Valentine's here. So many couples (or multiples (iykyk)) coming to my cinema to watch their chosen films like Wuthering Heights. But if I may:

Did you know you can go on dates any time and not on Valentines? 😒

Two months since I last posted. Too much cleaning to put up with. 😓

- How To Train Your Dragon
- Lilo And Stitch
- Elio
- Sinners
- Jurassic World

😮‍💨

And why are people putting in peanut shells, popcorn pieces and tiny sweets (Like Nerds) inside cup holders? They're a nightmare to clean out!

Why are people constantly using their phones inside auditoriums while the film is playing?

You've already booked tickets for it! You're wasting your money, ya 🍩!

I'll make you a deal, Nintendo.

Make your Switch 2 and games go down in prices and I'll consider buying.

Then the Academy should book appointments to make them watch those films before they're eligible to vote.
Some Oscar voters admit they just press play on the screeners app to meet viewing requirements — then mute the audio or switch tabs

“The app only needs to see that you watched it. It doesn’t know if you’re sitting there"

As a Cinema worker, I'll say this.

Hell no, they won't! We've been putting up with way too much of their 🐂💩!

Since #MinecraftMovie came out, kids (no matter what age) thought it'd be a good idea to:

- Scream and shout while throwing around massive amounts of food
- Thrown an actual chicken around
- Literally ripped the top part of the auditorium seats

#Minecraft As a Cinema Staff member, along with the workers, I have to put up with this. We had messy screens and troublemakers in the past but this is a real p🤬-take.
Police had to kick several kids out of the theater during a showing of #Minecraft

They were screaming and throwing popcorn during the ‘Chicken Jockey’ scene

So much rubbish to clean up after.

Damn you, #CaptainAmerica and #BridgetJones.

A true story to tell. One time, years ago:

A guy came into the cinema using his 'Cinema Points Card' and got himself a bunch of tickets out the building's ticket machine. Seeing this as not a big thing, I shrugged it off. (1/4)

Kids / And kids disguised as bigger kids: Yay! National Popcorn Day!

Me (And all the other cinema workers): Yay. Another really messy day. 🙄

As uplifting as that sounds, it does raise a question.

How did people like Starmer, Netanyahu and Trump make their careers? 🙄😒
January 10, 2025 at 11:30 PM
People have been saying to me, 'Happy New Year'.

While I say the same three words back to customers, I would reply to my colleagues 'Same 💩 different day'. 😑

Don't worry. They know me. 👍

Greetings, movie watchers, and other people. I’m a grumpy cinema bloke who comments on not only films, but things happening outside those as well, such as politics and leave tips on how not to be a git when you visit cinemas like mine or whatever.
