British Cinemas Are A Bit Shit

Despite all the following things, going to the cinema is still great. At least I tell myself it’s great…

When you get to the till (or the machine. Never forget the machines!) it dawns on you how expensive it is.


You have the tickets – and less money in your wallet – but you need some snacks as it’s impossible to go longer than 30 minutes without eating.


But the food is even more expensive than the tickets.


Broke but looking forward to your popcorn and soft drink combo you settle down in your seat.


Only to discover that it’s really uncomfortable, there’s not much leg room and the rubbish left over from the last film is still there. 


The film starts, oh wait, after 500 HOURS OF ADVERTS!


The curtains widen yet again and the film is finally under way.


But the uncomfortable chair is uncomfortable and you’re sitting near talkers and people on their iPhones.


You realise that popcorn is actually quite horrible and you’ve drunk your drink so fast that you’re constantly popping to the loos.


The film ends and you realise it didn’t live up to the hype.



No film ever does.
