Ticket Dealer: [to manager, referring to Homer] That overweight guy wants to see the movie.
Manager: I’m terribly sorry, sir, but I’m afraid our facilities are not equipped to meet your needs.
Homer Simpson: What are you talking about?
Manager: What I’m saying, sir, is that a man of your carriage couldn’t possibly fit in our seats.
Homer Simpson: I can sit in the aisle.
Manager: I’m afraid that would violate the fire code.
Bystander: Hey, Fatty! I’ve got a movie for ya: A Fridge Too Far!
While we’re on the topic of sweet junk…
Popcorn, raisinets, ju ju bes, twizzlers, sour patch kids…
How do you roll when you go to the movies?
I like to strap a feedbag on and eat popcorn like that. Sometimes, I’ll have something chocolate cause I’m a surf n turf kind of guy.
I share a popcorn with the missus, but I have my own little bag of peanut M&Ms to go with it. Grab a couple M&Ms, reach into the popcorn, and down the hatch. Got to be such a habit that popcorn alone doesn't do it anymore.
Yeah - I was once the poor slob who accidentally dumped his peanut M&Ms on the floor and the whole theater could hear them rolling up front. A real shame that was.
Dude, what's up with snowcaps? They seem so wack.
Popcorn is a must, but depending on my mental state then I might add some reese's pieces too.
I worked at a multiplex when I was in HS; the first three days I gorged on free popcorn, then never touched the stuff again for the duration. The soda I didn't get tired of, even though I saw firsthand what it was made of. The untouchable stuff (stuff we couldn't have for free) were the candy and ice cream; that became a real bargaining chip wiith friends and particularly with the ladies... Nowadays, I'll indulge in one popcorn of indeterminate size and one drink if I don't bring my own. The few times I go to the theater, I'm more wrapped up in the picture than I am snacking, but I will have something to drink.
I got my sons all psyched to go see Toy Story 3 this weekend, promised them popcorn. Then I read that popcorn is like this ridiculously dangerous choking hazard and the movie is in 3D so I have to figure out a way to get them to manage the glasses.
Popcorn all the way, in the biggest receptacle my wife will let me get away with. No "butter," though. And Ellen DeGeneres demonstrates the proper technique at 1:05 here:

the food order never changes: me and my three boys split a big popcorn, light on the butter, and Twizzlers. Medium Coke for me, Sprites for the kids.
Approximately the nutritional equivalent of literally eating $25 dollars.
My wife hates wasting money on movie snacks, and kids movies, so I'm the designated kid movie-taker. Good gig, but we only go a couple times a year.
Small popcorn, medium on the butter and a water.
Sometimes I get sour patch kids ... *never* sour jacks, which are an abomination.

[2] Snow caps - I don't know. What are those white things? I like the chocolate - love the dark chocolate - but the white things on top. They just crunch between your teeth. Not cool.
[10]
The "white things" are nonpareils ...

[11] I always thought "nonpareils" where the fancy name for sno-caps, lol. I always hated those tiny hard candy balls. Just nasty, especially on cookies. They get everywhere and crunch your teeth. I'll always go with the no-sprinkle, no-"tiny balls" options if available.
(listen to me - mister snooty candy chooser - as if)

And so quotable, too!
[2] [10] [11] I love those things! I didn't know they were also called "Sno-Caps" until my teens, so that means I must have had the generic ones as a kid, which are also called nonpareils. The small ones are a favorite movie snack, and so are cookie dough bites. So bad and yet so good.
