That's a value judgment. It's not the same thing as stealing where you actually deprive someone of something though. If someone takes the DVD you own, you don't have it anymore and you can't watch it. If someone sneaks into the theater you own, you still have the movie and you can still sell tickets to the next show.

It's not a common occurrence, but it has happened before -- and it's certainly not worth all this.... and like I said, until you're the one who has to enforce it, don't worry about it. To me, it's nothing like pirating a movie via my hard disk and sharing it -- seeding it.

No you didn't. I've already covered that.

Anchor Man is his best "reerun" behavior film. Stranger than fiction is his best "dramedy" film.

Not in this case. Clay wasn't going to see the movie, thus the theater would get no revenue. Since that particular showing was not sold out, the theater did not need to turn away a customer (revenue), so the theater got zero and gave up zero, thus its a breakeven.
Playing devil's advocate, by Clay sitting in that theater for 20 minutes, there was a chance the theater could have earned concession revenue if he got the munchies or needed a tasty beverage, thus in a better spot. |

It isn't just about one ticket that wouldn't have been purchased anyway. |

No. I rarely go to movies, and the trailer didn't really interest me.
