James returns to the Top 10 format for a deep dive into everything wrong with modern movie theaters: from $30 popcorn buckets and the IMAX scam, to Nicole Kidman’s spiritual AMC ad, recliner sear squeaks, the theater becoming everything but a theater, and the “concession voucher” workaround for streaming TV finales. A spiritual follow-up to Top 10 Reasons Blu-ray Sucks.
