    I occasionally take a bottle of tap water with me if I think it's going to be hot, but otherwise I don't take anything with me or buy anything there - I've never really seen the attraction of munching your way through a film.

    I always have a bottle of water with me but never take nor buy food. I don't understand why people feel the need to stuff their faces and annoy everyone else with smelly food and rustling packets all through the film!

    I usually bring a packed lunch...
    Feudal Britain needs land reform. 70% of the land is "owned" by 1 % of the population and at least 50% is unregistered (inherited by landed gentry). Thats why your slave box costs so much..

    If going to the cinema with my husband I don't bother with food or drink. If going with my child I normally take something. Either homemade popcorn, or sweets taken out of bag and put into a quieter bag.

  • Have frequently brought drinks with me. Can generally go 2-3 hours without food though so dont bother with that.
  • Yes, always. Going to the cinema is very rare now, perhaps once or twice a year. I go to the early performances where there are usually only one or two other people, so I don't disturb anyone by eating. I heard that some cinemas are banning the bringing in of food from outside, in which case I won't go. I refuse to buy over priced rubbish.

    I haven't been in years but when I did go with my daughter, I always took our own sweets & drink, much cheaper than buying in the cinema.

    Yes - always. A drink is better than coughing!

    Food/drink always used to be banned, but cineworld now state that only hot food can't be brought in from outside.
