We sneak pizza into movies...

We {Tom and I} are a theaters worst nightmare.

Movie theaters are RIDICULOUSLY expensive.

So expensive that a few years ago I decided to Boycott going to the movies

to fight the system and encourage them to lower the prices...

However that was unsuccessful...

since I was the only one taking part in the boycott.

Anyways...

You can literally go bankrupt on one night at the movies.

Or instead of going to the movies, you could spend the day at an amusement park

and spend about the same amount of money.

My point...it's expensive...

And our way of fighting the system is less dramatic that a Boycott.

Before we leave for the movies we empty out my small backpack.

We head over to Marks and Spencer once we get to town and we get

two diet cokes, one water, and some sour cream and onion pringles.

And some grapes if we're feeling really crazy.

But last night we decided to forget the grapes

and leave room for some dinner instead.

Sneaking dinner into the movies...we're basically evil geniuses.

A few weeks ago we saw two guys that had snuck in Burritos from

the Burrito place that's right next to the Theater.

It inspired us.

So last night we got 3 pizza slices from a pizza slice place.

And a Burrito from the burrito place.

Placed it all in my bag along with the other snacks

we had gotten from M&S and headed into the movies.

On top of that, we had won a free large popcorn

from a game we played at the theater the previous week.

We were stocked and ready to be stuffed.

So we're seeing Twelve years a slave.

We sit down and chow down.

The preview stuff starts but the screen is black.

After a few minutes people start leaving to go tell the staff.

At one point the lights come up and a woman walks to the front of the theater.

We assume she is there to make sure the movie starts 

but we notice her eyeing us a little to intently.

We freeze in our tracks...or our bites and I ask Tom if we'd been caught.

We just sit there frozen in terror for about 30 seconds

and then the film starts and she leaves.

pheewww

And we're back to stuffing our faces.

The movie, Twelve years a slave...was a bit traumatic...

I cried, like a baby, more than once.

And i swear Tom shed a tear or two as well.

Even though he denies it ;)

Also...throughout the movie I kept saying to myself..

"Gosh, I wonder how long he was away from his family"

Then...{SPOILER ALERT} When he's reunited with them

and his kids are grown i'm shocked that it was that long.

Then I remember the title of the movie...12 years...and i feel real dumb ;)

Great movie, amazing acting, but totally sad!!

And it makes you hate 19th century white people, at least the baddies.

There were some goodies back then to :)

We started the night out by going on the Liverpool Ferris Wheel.

It was great, we had a coupon and it was only £6.00 for the both of us.

It was nice, but a little terrifying.

So we had a great night out and now you know

we're movie theater villains ;)

If they ever start checking bags then we're going

to slowly back away and go eat our snacks elsewhere haha
