Assigned seating is the best thing that could have ever happened to movie theaters!
It rewards the people who are on the ball and buy their tickets ASAP and enables the ushers to kick out the assholes (teenagers, mostly) who try to sit whereever they want. Win-win.
it changes the classic theater going experience. if a movie isn’t a blockbuster. people just won’t go to a showing if they can’t get good seats. and how does it let them kick disruptive people out? I think I’ve been to the theater three times since covid and every single time it had disruptive people in it.
and, they never seem to be quite right about which seats are and aren’t taken, cuz no matter how much you try to choose a seat that’s away from anybody in a theater that’s not crowded, you always end up with some asshole buying tickets in the seat right next to you.
You couldn’t be more wrong.
