Well, having worked in plenty of movie theatres, the kid who is not stopping you is wondering if you are to knife him or deck him if he says anything to you. People always bitch about how the ushers never throw out the talkers in the theatres, but look at them. They are bar bouncers. They are teenagers that you basically bully into seeing free movies.
Oh and yes, downloading pirated movies is stealing. I don’t do it. Not everyone does it.
Oh my god that is absurd. No one has ever thought I was going to knife them. I couldn’t look less like a bully.
My, how lady-like. In any case, lobstermobster at least has her youthful inexperience as a possible explanation, what’s your excuse?
Question: Where do you suppose the money comes from to make (and distribute) those movies in the first place? How do you expect everyone involved to get compensated, if nobody pays to see the movie?
I’ve never downloaded a movie. Or music (other than iTunes). You seem to have sunk to your own level regarding friends.
Ha, I just got a free pass for tomorrow night to…wait for it…
The IMAX I Am Legend, with the 6-minute preview of The Dark Knight in front of it. 
So, what I was hoping I was going to see the other night, I actually will be seeing. I’m happy now.
Btw, saw Juno last night with a free pass. It’s a very very sweet movie. Funny, with a heart. I’ll go back and pay to see it again. Look for Ellen Page to be nominated for Best Actress at the Oscars (or at the very least, the Golden Globes, whose nominations come out Thursday).
Your laughing made me laugh too. Please accept my apology for calling you a dick.
So, how do you get all of these free passes?

No biggie. One good thing about this place is that we can vent here and then go to Cafe Society and giggle together about how dumb reality TV contestants are. 
Several ways. I haunt web sites like Film Metro and Wild About Movies, forums like FatWallet.com’s Free Stuff and Awards Daily, I check papers like the Red Eye here in Chicago, plus I’m on a Facebook group for Chicago Free Movie Screenings, and I’m on a private mailing list of Chicago people who find out about screenings and other free stuff and pass the word along (this one helps when a store you never go to has passes, but once you find out they have passes, then you can go there to get them, but that can be dangerous because the last store I went to that had passes I found out about via this group turned out to be a book store I’d never been to and, well, let’s just say, money was spent, which of course, is why stores like to give away passes, to get people into their store and hopefully spend money). I’m always looking for new ways to find passes. When I was a member of the Chicago International Film Festival, I got a LOT of passes from them, mailed to me even, but I haven’t been able to afford a membership for a few years.
Have you ever worked in a movie theatre?
You clearly have a ‘strong’ presonality. Just because you are not a big muscled, mouth breathing, buzz-cutted, boy, does not mean you are not bullying your way into the theatres.
You seem to be saying that the staff sees you and they don’t do/say anything, or perhaps they don’t notice, since you’re so sneaky. Trust me, they probably notice you. If you’ve done it multiple times, they probably remember you. I doubt that they just you’re such a groovy chick that they just want to lose their jobs over you, but rather, that it they don’t get paid enough to take the risk of dealing with someone who clearly thinks she is above the rules.
Let’s not forget that one’s online persona can differ greatly from one’s real-life presentation.
For example, it might surprise some to know that in the real world, I am devoutly religious, unfailingly polite, and highly intelligent, and that I neither speak nor understand English. I am actually a turnip made of vinyl, however.
Come on, we saw that picture of you. Your hands are the size of a small, cigarette-hating chld.
