"My legs can hold my own weight" is not an achievement. I can leg press 300lbs and I also don't weigh 300lbs. Though I am still a chub.

Yeah, you should at minimum be able to do 1.5X your weight, just to be able to stand up and walk. If you can jump, it should go to 2X, which would also let you raise yourself with one leg.

A standard leg press machine is 45*, so whatever weight you're pushing is really sin45 of your vertical effort that you'd be getting with squats. Sin 45 = 1/2 so literally if you weigh 200 pounds you should be pressing 400 to reach bodyweight

Every one of those loving things that starts with "be me" has been so dumb that I physically can't read them anymore. Like my eyes roll so hard it's not possible so I skip them every time.

In addition to what other posters have said, reserved, numbered seats have been the norm in many countries outside the US for a long time  Though I suspect the STDH writer here is from the US.

Here in Norway all theaters are sorta lovely but at least have reserved seats. When I lived in Florida, at the multiplex or whatever, 99% of the theaters were beyond lovely and no reserved seats, except for the luxury dine-in theater which had reserved seats, huge rear end recliners with tables and alcohol serving. It was like a miniature society really, with the poor huddled masses in their lovely cheap seats and the lucky 1% in their comfortable recliners.

Yeah i went to a normie theater without reserved seats once in the last like 3 years and I was anxious waiting in line for tickets because it was an opening weekend and I've gotten so used to just walking in right on time and getting my preferred seats without a hassle. It's so much better now you can just reserve seats a week+ in advance and not plan to get there to beat the lines or not get stuck in the front rows. A huge QoL upgrade.

Huh, haven't seen that in my area at all. Most be somewhat regional? Like, we have Regal and everything, none of them do. Maybe for RPX they might? I never pay extra for those, just 3d. I know the normal ones never do that though.

The theater Mrs Underbridge and I always go to now has reserved, reclining seats with a fold-out tray to hold drinks & popcorn. When we went to see Black Panther, this guy kept working down the aisle in front of us and eventually took a pair of seats. A few minutes later a couple comes in and tells him those are their seats and show him the numbers on their tickets. He gets all huffy but he and his girlfriend move to the back row at the end. As the end credits are rolling he goes to the couple and loudly tells them how rude it was that they made him leave the seats! My wife snapped, and told him to let it go, called him an rear end in a top hat. The poor couple just looked mortified and left. The assholes girlfriend walked around apologizing to everyone around them. Sadly, nobody applauded and I didn't see Einstein anywhere (despite the Vicodin). That's my story about reserved seating, thanks for reading.

The other is right off the highway and looks like some dilapidated hell pit that does not.

But no assigned seating. I need to go to the movies next time I'm a few hours away from here, see if it's the whole area or just this part.

Many theaters have at least one fancy theater that is 21-and-over where they bring your food to your seat and serve I wonder if any of those theaters showed Zootopia because that would be funny. I know they showed Infinity War. True story, I accidentally got tickets to the not-21-and-over theater for Infinity War and someone's baby kept crying. She had two other kids that were slightly older and they were well behaved. Stupid baby. Edit: also, I had to go pee immediately after the movie because it was very long and my wife was sitting in the hallway. She saw a family come out and the young boy was crying and being comforted. Like, you might want to read reviews or something before you take your kid who loves superheroes to a movie where a bunch of them die. I mean, as an adult, I know they are going to retcon most of those because new movies are already scheduled, but for a kid, it's just devastating.

Someone on my FB (hey, maybe this is stdh.txt and I didn't even know!) just saw Deadpool 2 and said a kid was playing with a toy fire truck in the aisle the whole time. Infinity War I can kinda understand, the other Avengers movies are much more family friendly, but Deadpool?  There were kids in the seats next to me at Infinity War, and this little girl would get so excited every time she saw Black Panther that she would clap her hands and smack her dad on the leg. By the end of the movie she was just sitting in her dad's lap, crying. I felt so bad  Also loving lol @ the guy up the page who can leg press 300lbs or whatever, I am a 5'3'' woman and can easily do that

Look, those parents are loving amateurs compared to the couple I sat next to at Schindler's List, who brought a 3-4 year old girl who, happily, fell asleep about a half-hour into the movie.
