He’s right about the popcorn being so so. I worked there as an usher. It came pre-popped in hefty sized plastic bags that were stored in the supply room with a mouse problem. It was common to find bags with the corner chewed open. It was put in a ‘popcorn machine’ that was just a glass box with a heat lamp to warm it up.The ‘butter’ came in gallon jugs.
Nobody who worked there actually ate the popcorn unless they had a mental disorder.
The soda was always watery because no one knew what they were doing behind that concession stand.They barely knew how to count correct change.
There is also no mention that,as early as 81,they would occasionally have a porno for a week or so. At the age of 16 I got to watch movies like ‘Fire Down Below’ and the various ‘Emmanuel does..’
Most memorable moment: The guy who came out to the lobby in the middle of ‘Maniac’,threw up and then fainted,landing on one of the poles holding the velvet ropes and cracking a tooth.‘Tsk tsk tsk…blood in your hair.What will we do.What will people say’ (line from Maniac for the uninitiated)
