Title: Ways to get into a movie theater...
Post by: M-26-7 on March 10, 2007, 04:15:30 PM
Does anyone know any other ids that movie theaters would probably take besides driver's licenses?
In Steal This Book they talk of a way you can become an ordained reverend simply by mailing in a form. I might look in to that. Figure they wouldn't fuck with a religious figure, especially if a I grow a beard or some facial hair.

How old are you?  Can't you just pay for one movie and go see the other?  Do they really card for all R rated movies?  I thought they only did for the really bad ones.  If they won't let you in, just download the movie from the internet.  That'll show 'em!

They don't card you so much as they let you buy the tickets and then won't let you in. Also they're pretty good at keeping people from sneeking into movies. And I'm lazy.

dude, every time I go to the movies, you just get a ticket to a movie of a similar time, and I walk in with a bag of candy I buy from target and the acne ridden teenager takes your ticket and you go over to where the movie is. Often you can use an old stub, and just say you were in the bathroom and are going back in to a movie that is currently playing. Worst case scenario pay a homeless person or some 20 year old to buy tickets for you.

note though, often when you hand the ticket in they will say "22 on your RIGHT, and it will look mighty suspicious if you start walking left.

I'm an ordained reverend of the Universal Life Church (also the SubGenius, but I don't mention that if I want to be taken seriously), it took all of five minutes. Trust me, it's not worth a lot.

An extremely easily foreable ID I found the other day is a Gym Pass. Mine is for the local military base gym and it has my name, picture, and age on it. The thing is, it's SOOO uncomplicated I could probably produce a decent fake without even leaving Wal Mart (use the photocopier, scissors, and laminate).

With the cinemas in Luxembourg all you have to do is produce a valid students card to get student reduction. So ,my method was to just create a "university" in Belgium and get the nice 3€ reduction. *rainbowsmiley*

I'm not talking about buying the tickets. To that all I have to do is go to the automatic kiosk and use one of those credit card gift cards you can buy anywhere. I tried to get into snakes on a plane with a friend and they stopped us pretty damn quick.

It sounds like you need to wait a few years.

The only movie I've ever heard of people getting carded over was Jackass 2, and that's because apparently somebody cares if retards imitate things like that and kill themselves.

My local movie theater is run by douchebags. So I usually just grab some random guy and offer him a gift of sweaty hot manlove if he'll buy my ticket for me. The last time I used this was during Borat, but only because I didn't check what PG rated movies were playing at the same time.

  It always works.

have you lesbians never heard of torrents/newsgroups/irc/p2p ? Why the fuck are you paying 10 dollars for a move?

don't get me wrong, I get every movie I want to see from bit torrent, sometimes BEFORE it's playing in theaters. But sometimes, you gotta see it on the big screen.

I only want to see the movie in the theaters. If I wanted it on a small creen I would just wait for the damned DVD.

Coincides with his comic, that's for sure...

Actually that was a response to something peanut said. Now that you mention it though, they do coincide.
