still have to stand in line. You get there three days early, bring equipment, food, chair, sleeping bag. It's 105 degrees outside. The employees bring you lemondade if you purchase it, and provide a restroom. The theater says in order to maintain your place in line you have to learn and be tested on your knowledge of the history of the theater you're standing in front of. You have to obtain and display a license to stand in line, provide your family history, and run 15 miles per day to hold your place. They sell more tickets than they have seats, you still might not get in.
Others sneak into the line an hour before the movie starts. They actually get to go inside and wait in the AC while you stand in the heat. They didn't buy tickets, didn't get tested, and don't obtain any of the necessary information.
The theater manager (Chucky Schumer) says "That's OK. Those that butted in line get a guaranteed seat. You others keep waiting." Donny the owner calls and says, "Wait, they should stand in line like the others". Chucky says, "They're pretty acclamated to the AC. I still think we should let them stay inside and get the first choice of seats." Donny says, "OK, I'll agree to leave them in the AC and then they can go to the second showing." Chucky says, "Then, I'm going to shut down the theater, no more restrooms, no more lemonade. We are no longer paying the employees unless you let the line-butters in first."
