Alamo Drafthouse just announced a change that will have some fans up in arms. The beloved theater chain is reportedly moving away from the paper and pen style concessions ordering method that many associate with Alamo.
This policy, as it existed, helped reinforce Alamo Drafthouse’s strict No Phones during screenings policies. If you’ve been to a movie theater since 2020, you’re no doubt aware that people are more lax about phone usage in dark theaters than they’ve been in the previous 20 years. Folks got used to being inside and forgot their manners completely in the ensuing time since 2020.
