Everyone loves some popcorn when they go to the movies. Do you always eat popcorn? If you don't, does all the crunching around you, annoy you? Do you find that popcorn is addictive? You can't stop eating it once you start?

Yes, I do enjoy them until now. I had to buy the extra large bag of popcorn everytime we watch movies. My kids loved them too. Usually, we ordered the cheese flavor which some soda to quenched along with it. Usually it ended up within the first 30 minutes of the show. And sometimes, had to buy another one in the middle. Had also a pop corn in the house ready for popping every now and then.

That's funny. Popcorn in our house doesn't last 5 minutes. Mostly because of me :)

I am addicted to popcorn. I can't even go to the movies without popcorn in my hands. I don't know why popcorn's the food most associated with movies but it's fun to eat it while watching movies. And besides, it can be a weapon when people are noisy you can just throw popcorn at them

I love movie theater popcorn, it is so good, and so bad for you. I really like their butter, I have even looked a buying a complete unit myself just for me. I can't go see a movie at the theater without eating popcorn,it doesn't matter how much it is.

I always eat popcorn when I go to the movies. It's my favorite movie snack, in addition to having a soft drink.

I love to eat microwave popcorn when I watch a movie at home, but when I go to the theater I generally have either redhots or jujifruits. Candy wont make you thirsty, thus you wont need a drink, thus you wont need to get up in the middle of the movie to go pee. Besides, both the candy and the movie out are a double treat for me, I only go to the theater to see "epic" movies. Ones that are best when seen there. the volume of the surround sound at the theater generally blocks out all crunching noise, but the smell does make me want some.

No, I don't enjoy popcorn in most movie places, though I will indulge occasionally, particularly when it's FRESH and they use REAL BUTTER ... Yes, there are places that serve popcorn from last night, or they use some kind of trans-fat concoction that allegedly tastes like real butter (though those of us who have tasted real butter know the republico/libertarian farts are lying) Please if at all possible, eat before buying these overpriced artificial products. And I have snucked in organic snacks before; they don't really have an airport security system for quality snacks - It Can Be Done !!!

Hi, online, popcorn is not my favorite, though I never refuse it. Sometimes when I go to the movie with my friends, they ask my opinion on popcorn, I always say "yes" (coz they like it.) In another side, popcorn here is always mixed with molasses, it sticks on my fingers. But I don't mind others on adjacent seats eating popcorn in the theater.

I don't usually buy popcorn when I watch movies, I prefer potato chips or french fries, but if it's available, like my sister gets it and shares, I would eat it. I don't mind the crunching sounds at all. What I get annoyed at in the movies are noisy children and annoying people who speak really loud while the movies is on. I must admit popcorn is quite addictive. I remember once I said I was just going to eat a little bit, but then I found myself scooping up handfuls from the bucket LOL!

I am not a fan of popcorn. I get popcorn only when I go for movies. It is must for me to have a pepsi and a packet of ghee fried popcorn when I go to my favorite theater for a movie. I am not much into soft drinks too. I only have Pepsi along with popcorn during movies. I enjoy it. I have a friend who is very fond of popcorn.

I do not have popcorn except when I go to the theaters. In theaters it is a must for me. I really like the tomato and cheese flavored popcorn they serve at the theaters. I occasionally take a glass of soft drinks with it. I hate the sound of people crunching chips or popcorn around me only when I have finished mine.

I love popcorn too when I'm watching movies in Cinemas. But if I'm just at home I can only have chips. It's nice to munch something while enjoying the movie. And once I start eating there's no way I'll stop til the my food is consumed. :p shadow41
