That's fine, I've already accepted death whenever it decides to strike.
Only my shell will die I will live on forever I'm immortal

Small world- parent of a student here works in movie distribution, got to talking about my time at Hoyts (circa 1996-2001) and he knows/knew my executive managers.
Damn i should have asked him for a job, would love to work in movies again.

He briefly explained the "food chain" to me as well, like what he does/how movies get distributed to the cinemas, how many sessions etc.

Working at movies now would be much easier than back then anyway

is it true that cinemas make money on their food/drinks not ticket sales?

Dunno about that but i can tell you this.
Working at hoyts we could have all the free popcorn and coke we liked. But at no time ever were we allowed to use the boxes/cups the stuff came in.
So there you go packaging cost more than the corn/oil, etc. I guess.

similarly airlines make literally no money from economy seats. Most of their profit comes from the limited business/first class seats.
Bloody rich flogs subsiding ticket prices making it possible for more people to travel on airlines...wait what?

No its not.
I'd still kick it old school and go back to ground zero of the cinema from time to time.

Whenever I get a soft drink crave I walk to HJs to buy one of their frozen coke tbh. Walking means exercise since it's 1.5k + another back and it's a lot less than a few 1.25L bottles in terms of cash and intake
