It is kind of gross, but I am not going to pay $6 for popcorn
You love popcorn that much?? 
Seriously? What is wrong with you?
You know another way you could avoid paying $6 for popcorn? Don’t eat popcorn.
Seriously, just no, dude. No.
It’s stealing. The refill(s) is offered on the premise you buy the first tub.
Do you dumpster dive as well? There are probably some half eaten burgers behind McDs.
Not as bad as finding out that your coworkers are taking the soda cups and popcorn containers from the empty theatre and rinsing them out and RESELLING THEM and pocketing the cash.
How many of your coworkers?
ALL OF THEM.
You can’t enjoy a movie without popcorn. What am I supposed to do with my hands for 2 hours?
$6 for popcorn is the real crime. I am like Robin Hood: a noble thief fighting injustice.
No, it’s how the theater stays in business. They don’t make any money on the tickets, you know.
Not only is it stealing, it’s gross too. Some stranger has repeatedly put their hand to their mouth and then into that bucket.
No, I just can’t.
Sometimes it’s just TOO easy…
Yeah, no. I don’t really care about the whole stealing aspect, I’m just going by how gross it is.
You’re talking about being in a movie theatre and you ask that?
OK now let’s have our fellow dopers insert about a thousand jokes about this.
EDIT:
On further thought people who grew up renting videos won’t understand this 
Hey just because I grew up renting videos doesn’t mean I don’t know what theaters are or the things you can do in the dark. I am tired as heck of old people mocking me. Just because I never had a record player doesn’t mean I don’t know what records are.
Ugh. If you can’t afford it, then don’t get popcorn. A resounding no from me.
OP’s got a whole lotta company there, no? :rolleyes:
So what do you do when you get to the bottom of the bucket and find the hole?
Hey, we grew up watching Pee Wee Herman, you know.
Are you grabbing that bucket out of the trash as you sneak into the next theater for the movie you didn’t pay for?
Let me guess…you also…
cheat on your taxes.
dine and dash.
eat in hotel restuarants and sign the bill with your “room number”.
kite checks.
let your buddies get the tab, and you’ll “get it next time”.
I am not a crook. I have never actually done the popcorn thing. I was just seeing what people thought of it.
