First of all, just getting to the theater presents difficulties. Even if the weather cooperates, there is still a twenty or thirty minutes drive to the theater down a congested highway, followed by the hassle of looking for a parking space. And then there are the lines. After hooking yourself to the end of a human chain, you worry about whether there will be enough tickets, whether you will get seats together, and whether many people will sneak into the line ahead of you.
