Most UK cinemas are perfectly happy when audiences bring in their own snacks.

And they still make money. From selling snacks.

Because people are lazy and want a good time.

I wouldn't say that a buy drinks or nachos to support "my" local cinema -- it's still a chain --, but if I feel like it I'm buying from the venue. Many people do. There are always queues for popcorn.
