Anyone been to those VIP theaters?
They serve you food and alcohol while seated in a couch like chair?
Just went last night. Took the g-unit out on a rare date (no time these days).
Two tickets $50 two drink $20$ One food item $10 -------------------- Total $80 approx
..... What's your thoughts on this?
THe food prices were not bad. IT was bar food prices. Drinks were inflated a bit, a pint of steamwhistle was 7$.

I've been a few times. It's worth it every once in a while because..dude you can drink a beer while watching a movie! I wouldn't do it every time.
Also, the arms between some of the seats fold up and are especially useful in the back row.

I've never been, it was my first time.
The food item was pulled pork poutine, it was ok. Not a large portion at all. Not worth the $$.
Got a mixed drink (g-unit) and beer (for me).
i ONLY see movies in VIP now. it's more civilized, but when i saw Avengers at Yonge Dundas VIP, a few couples were getting wasted and talked through most of the movie.
i don't do the food but the ability to have booze, bigger seats, somewhere to put your shit and reserved seating, i'm all for it.
I dont understand how you can get wasted at the theater? They order more than one drink? or pre-drink? or drink at the bar in the theater before entering? This would make it an expensive night.

Damn!
That's insane. Did they use the washroom a lot?
I only had one pint and watched Jurassic World, i was already stressing about using the washroom. Had to nurse the beer.
