just curious, recently was called a “pathetic dog” and cussed out by a rude couple because I asked if they could finish their starbucks coffee in the lobby due to our food and drink policy. 😭 so I wanted to know what’s the worst thing a guest has said to y’all or what was the worst interaction you’ve had with a guest? :D

Hi, I work at an Australian movie theatre! We are doing our annual awards night to say thank you to all the employees for their hard work this year. I’m wanting to create goodie bags for each person mind you there’s about 70 staff. I was wanting some ideas on what you would want to see I would also like some to be funny hopefully!

This might be self explanatory but i'm curious, do you guys just wait until your shift ends to catch the latest movie showing? How do you juggle your love of movies with your job?

I collect movie tickets and I noticed 90% of my tickets were all sold by the same guy. Let's call him Owen. I easily recognize Owen but I wonder if he recognizes me based on how often I watch movies? Especially because 50% of my movies, I watch solo, and I almost always watch films during opening night, last full show. Do you recognize the people you regularly sell tickets to or do all the faces blur together because of how many people you sell to?

We didn’t get it. I think the last GKids thing we got was Dandadan’s premiere event…

If I asked my local theater for some of their old posters would they provide them for me, could I take home old movie posters?

As I was leaving a showing of A Complete Unknown, the theater next door to me was handing out vouchers because someone had a medical emergency during One Of Them Days. Has any of you dealt with this in the past?

I used to work at an AMC and it's a super long story but I accidentally "no call, no show" my last two days of my two week notice? Is there any chance I'll be rehired or should I just move on?

Hi guys!

Really surprised we’re getting this one actually. Haven’t been hearing great stuff about it, and I’ve seen that infamous clip circulating online.

Are you guys getting it at your theaters as well, and what are your thoughts?

*in their theater

I quit amc yesterday after working for a year here's my opinion of what made my theater toxic and no longer fun to work at. My HR manager was very confrontational and would yell or get mad at you for the tiniest mistake. Verus the other managers would be on their phones and not working while I'm forced to pick up the pieces and try to make the place run. I was doing more than expected for too long without the correct compensation. But basically everyone's sick and tired of dealing with her.

My theater is needing to replace some acetate sheets that protect our 27x42 posters but we can no longer find a source to buy them from. Do any of you have a source or even a replacement option idea to fix it?

Former movie theater employee, still have friends in it, know more than I should with the goings on.

I was talking with my parents on Monday of this week about Better Man and how much I loved it (got it between Anora and The Substance at number 3 for 2024). They watched the full Rock DJ set piece that was put online and instantly were in to seeing it, but next week. I told them it might be gone by then as most theaters around here already had it to one showing a week. Then I checked AMC and I was STUNNED to see an AMC around here was showing it through next Thursday the 30th. It was even showing it 3 times a day. So I told them the show times and I’d join them if it lined up to a time I was off work.

Well, this was Monday when it was listed, then come Tuesday evening? Gone. All the last shows in the entire state were yesterday.

I saw a report that Paramount was going to stop releasing the box office numbers, but I’m curious if it was actually fully pulled. We have a few really large multiplexes around here I’d imagine would still have ONE showing, but nothing. I’m curious if anyone here works at a theater that still has it, or knows of one that does.

I’ve been hearing about how Better Man hasn’t been doing any good. But seeing this last week on a closing shift really shows how this movie ain’t doing good. Oh yeah and Babygirl only got 2 people that whole day.

It can be one you worked or one you haven’t! We spend all our time behind the counters making sure everyone else can see their movies, so I want to know what ones you like to watch for a change!

Personally, I love the BNHA Movies. But out of the ones I’ve worked, Mario and Ballad and Songbirds and Snakes have to be two of my favorites.

I tried getting the pop rocks to see if I got a cup again but it didn't happen like Last time

I want to get my first job at regal in orlando and I don't know how early I can apply

I'm a crew lead and no amcs near me are hiring supervisors. I feel I would like to move up in the company but Im not sure how. Do I have a shot if I apply to be a manager?

Hiii!

How are you guys feeling about the Brutalist? The length and intermission is definitely going to be interesting.

Because my theater did.

Hello!

I was wondering if anybody had some movie-related Spanish phrases that they use to help Spanish-speaking customers. Specifically as a movie theater employee!

I know some words, like palomitas and entradas (o boletos?). But I’m nowhere near fluent, and I would love to have some more helpful Spanish phrases under my belt.

Thank you!
