NEW YORK, NY — With new theaters offering fulls meals in the New York, Gawker investigates a new trend that may help turn the theater business around.
Soon gone will be the days of stale popcorn with chemical butter sauce and watery Diet Coke. Instead we’ll be feasting upon croquettes and deviled eggs. Movie theaters are getting fancy.

With the declining attendance in many cinemas, this CT member feels that the current recession is a major factor, closely followed by grossly over priced admissions and the children-of-all-ages who are utterly obsessed with their cell phones and ipods during the the program. If EVERY theater owner/manager displayed zero tolerance with these constant offenders, by ejecting them without a refund, then more of us would return to buy tickets to an interference free show!!!
Did not know the industry needed saving.
