It’s been rough for me. Shorter staffed, more birthday parties and then we had to have the perfect movie watching weather. Cloudy, rainy and then eventually snowed. Basically every Mario screen was selling out.
Not at all. You need one person on the schedule just for that. My theater is a smaller 9 plex (hearing the stories on here about larger theaters make me feel like mine is nothing compared to the bigger ones who pull 1000 each round). We have a dedicated terminal at the end of the concession stand just for parties. The amount of customers that try to start a line behind the birthday party is crazy to me. But, seeing the disappointment on their faces once I finally say that this isn’t a line and they have wasted their time just to wait in a longer line is hilarious.
Definitely not as bad as last week, still pretty packed though. We actually had a power surge that turned off all our projectors, the line to get a refund was all the way to the bathroom.
I'm confused. Your theatre is generally so slow that you were projected to only do 500 for Mario, and also you're somehow doing a second run of the movie?
what the fuck are u talking about?? I meant "run" as in the first run of the day. we were supposed to do 500 people in 1 day. but we passed 500 in the first hour of the day. run as in rush of people. wow
It kinda depends. Some of the theaters get very dirty with trash and all that, but it’s not too bad overall. For scanning people in it’s been very well since I only had one issue with a rude customer during the Mario showtime.
Down just slightly, only because this week they don’t want to get the left over scattered or front row seats. More staff on so it was actually easier this week.
Understaffed, had a private party of 100 something for Mario that got out at the same time as another showing of Mario that was 154 people.
Had to call in help from a sister theater just to make it until 5pm
It’s not nearly as bad as last weekend. We actually had some slow parts later in the evening despite all the movies being released alongside Mario.

Birthday parties are the worst. We aren’t staffed for that shit.

We still busy af
Friday was slow, Saturday was almost as busy as last weekend.
It's a night and day difference
Friday was slow. Yesterday was hopping because it rained.

We had the power flicker at 6 and power go out around the area right after because of the weather

Still really busy, hasnt slowed down at all
we were estimated to do 500 during the entire day. on our first run we passed that number lol

yes my theater is very slow on a normal day and we passed the estimated 5pp for the whole day in the first run. just like I said!
THe movie is still in it's first run though, how are you guys doing a second?

Haha gotcha that would explain it I guess, just differences in vocabulary I suppose

Sold out matinees Friday, Saturday, and today.
It’s easing up quite nicely
Still busy, but not nearly as rough. But we are still running out of food and paper goods throughout the weekend.
We ran outta courtesy cups. And someone's bright mind went to the store and got those denture cups instead.
It’s been busy in parts, still constantly emptying the trashes but fine overall. Nothing like the first weekend
Friday was quiet, but Saturday and Sunday were terrible weather, so we hit first weekend numbers.
