A North Texas man has filed a class action lawsuit against Cinemark, claiming the movie theater chain is lying to customers about the size of its drinks.
Shane Waldrop claims that Cinemark's 24 ounce cups can only hold 22 ounces of liquid, according to the lawsuit filed in the US District Court for the Eastern District of Texas.
On the one hand, lolz. Classic move theater scam. Love to spend $15 on stale popcorn that's 30% salt and then another $20 on a drink, after walking in with an $8 movie ticket to see 30 minutes of ads.
On the other hand, holy fuck dude. Maybe slightly less than half a pitcher of beer is more than enough?

If I pay for half a pitcher of beer, and you give me less than half a pitcher of beer, you still owe me more beer.
Also, if you're upset about how movie theaters are a scam, why are you defending this scammy behavior? No need to be self-righteous about alcohol consumption, Cinemark is defrauding customers by selling 24oz beers that aren't 24oz. You can drink however little beer as you want, but you should still want honesty from the people selling it to you.

Am I defending their behavior? I avoid theaters precisely because they're such awful places to be.

24oz is a lot of beer. I just have no idea why theaters are even offering that much, except for the fact that a small sized anything at a theater is minimum 12oz and 10x the price you'd get it at a grocery store. Its just more of the scam inherent in the business model.
Why do you keep changing the subject to your opinion on alcohol consumption as if it were relevant to the conversation? If I pay for a set quantity of anything, and I get less than I paid for, I was cheated, your self-righteousness notwithstanding.
