Default Better idea.
Maybe the Villages hasn't caught up to technical improvements yet, but here's what happened back home.
You went to the side of the theatre. There was a machine that accepted money for the show. Green ticket for an adult, blue ticket for a child and red ticket for a senior.
Put your money in, the ticket came out with change and you went to the front door. The ticket taker then took your ticket. First come, first serve.
Course, that was years ago. I haven't gone to a movie theatre in probably 10-15 years. Many reasons why. Cost, you no longer can bring your own pop or snacks, etc. I think the last movie I physically went to watch was one of the Star Wars flicks only because of the sound system.

Neat bumper sticker. Went like this: "It's God's job to judge terrorists. Our job is to arrange the meeting!"

Be a gentleman, remove your hat/cap when entering a building and dining out!
