How much do you put on?

>>21413718 (OP)
>push topping

WHAT THE HELL IS IT????

>>21413724
You've never heard of push? It's a great topping.

>>21413718 (OP)
A bit too much that I feel bad about it, but half the popcorn is still dry.

I don't eat at the movies because I have a Zyn in

>>21413718 (OP)
Way too much, if I’m honest. I have to take along a ton of napkins, and the bag is always soaked when I leave the theater.

I don't like pop corn
Never have

>>21413718 (OP)
I worked at a movie theater as a kid and we cleaned the popper with some foul-smelling chemical scrub and then never rinsed it out afterwards so there was always some left in the bottom

>2025
>not having a home theater
>not having a htpc
>not torrenting
>not having multi channel Dolby atmos speakers
>not having a 110 inch screen.

Lol theaters... grandpa go home. This thread is a joke right?

>>21413718 (OP)
just a little bit because I don't think it really adds anything to the popcorn but I want to try some to make sure I still don't care for it

>>21413929
Having a home theater is only cool if you only watch kino, not if you constantly pump the audio/visual equivalent of goyslop into your eyes and ears. I was going to buy a projector and screen but my favorite movies are not even available on the abandoned 4K blu-ray format so I said fuck it. Also, you can make movie popcorn at home in a pot. The secret is adding a fuckload of butter flavored coconut oil and whatever that salty shit is to the pot.

>>21413718 (OP)
I got banned from the theater after pouring it down my pants

>>21413929
>he uses a TV instead of a high end projector
bro...

>>21413755
I respect Zyn because I quit smoking with those but there are better products.

>>21413942
>zoomer words
I can watch any media I like. I have a giant NAS in the basement that can hold bluray rips and anything I can get my hands on plus live TV all for free through the internet. I can even watch questionable stuff where the kids screams vibrate through the sound dampening panels on the wall. I also have hone theater seating with a swivel tray so I can eat and drink whatever.

Nah... theaters are from the 80s and I am not going back to that time.

>>21413965
>zoomer words
ah a soylennial... enjoy your capeshit bro. I bet your DS looks sick on a 110 inch screen too.

>>21413954
Projectors are shit. Try playing HDR content on a projector. Lol. Also much lower overall quality.

Get with the times gramps.

>>21413969
Ds? Last console I had was a NES and a Lynx.

Oh you kids and your screwy terms.

>>21413973
My mistake I meant switch. I got my nintendo consoles mixed up because I'm not a soylennial.

>>21413965
>basement
told me everything I need to know

>>21413971
What kind of projectors are you looking at? Obviously whatever cheap shit you or your teachers used in college were crap, but those are the cheapshit chinkshit of projectors. Movie theater quality projectors cost a couple thousand dollars but BTFO any TV, especially once you get to 100 inch screens and above

>>21413979
Elder millennial zoom zoom. Lol

You'd think the younger generation would have better equipment but it just made them stupid and gullible.

I never get kinocorn because I don't want people hearing me rifle through the kinocorn bag and munching and crunching.

>>21413985
Yup. I got a whole house on acreage and a server room something you new kids don't want to work hard enough to afford.

>>21413718 (OP)
>How much do you put on?
These things still exist?
I haven't checked since it started costing more than $50 to watch a movie in the USA in theatres.
It's so much cheaper to just get a 4k blu ray.

>>21413988
>is the literal fat balding millennial manchild stereotype
>thinks it's a good thing

>>21413986
Projectors aren't compatible with modern tech in a home theater PC environment. If you mentioned projectors ten years ago it'd be a different story. Fuck no, I'd take a big TV over projector any day.

>>21413997
Literally none of those things but you are proving yourself to be a brain dead zoom zoom that is too lazy to appreciate a nice HiFi and television setup.

Just keep wasting money going to shitty theaters zoom zoom. You didn't have the intelligence to put together a setup anyways.

>>21414009
>Literally none of those things
You are literally all of those things retard. You couldn't fit the stereotype any more completely.

>>21414003
>Projectors aren't compatible with modern tech in a home theater PC environment. If you mentioned projectors ten years ago it'd be a different story. Fuck no, I'd take a big TV over projector any day.
Just get one that supports 1080p and run it in 1080i to compensate for the fact that most movies and games don't produce more than 30 frames per second.

>>21414011
Zoomer is lost in himself
Lol. Roflcopter even.

>>21414017
Yeah, that zoomer is acting like a boom boom, ROFLMAO

>>21414017
zoomers can't handle our chad millennial energy hehe

>>21414003
??? You can just use a projector like a monitor and route everything through your dedicated computer

>>21414017
haven't heard that one in a while. also, daria ate my balls

>>21414016
>1080

Christ. Did we go back to 2008?

But yes, I can switch modes on my TV and play games at a lower res so I don't need to have a super fast PC. I don't play games though. It was fun to do once though.

>>21413718 (OP)
As long as it keeps dispensing, I keep putting

>>21414027
>But yes, I can switch modes on my TV and play games at a lower res so I don't need to have a super fast PC. I don't play games though. It was fun to do once though.
Have you ever watched certain movies or tv shows at 4k/24p, like the Star Trek remasters?
It's fucking painful during the scenes where the frame rate is something like 2 frames per second.

>>21414024
Unless I am mistaken since it's been a few years since I have looked at projectors, they are fine to use for traditional content. I'd never get one though. I want HDR and 120hz if needed in some video rendering I do.

You can never get the quality of an actual panel with a projector for a whole host of reasons. Granted, projectors are better than they use to be, but you can't be an actual panel.

>>21414037
No, I actually haven't. I will look into it though. Use to love trek. Thanks. I'll get on the torrent sites and find a release.

>>21413718 (OP)
That's basebead oil

>>21414045
>No, I actually haven't. I will look into it though. Use to love trek. Thanks. I'll get on the torrent sites and find a release.
Okay, look, Star Trek on its own is not necessarily bad. It's one of the better military shows that portray officers in a generally positive light, but the DVD releases, and some of the Bluray releases... they fucking suck ass.
Imagine the intro of Star Trek TNG, but now imagine the Enterprise jankily jerking around because instead of, I don't know, 24 frames per second, they used some weird capture device that can only display 2 frames per second. And when it was remastered, it STILL only displays at 2 frames per second!
You would think with all the money they spent on these things, they could have, at the very minimum, run it all through a 480i capable display and then upscale all of those 60 frames per second or something.

>>21414063
That's sad to hear but I didn't notice it so much on the blurays when I watched it long ago. I know all the special fx were edited in video and that made for a painful re-do of every special effect. I didnt like it very much and there were times I remembered the original. Guess we aren't getting DS9 and Voy any time soon. Well... now we have ai tools... eh...

>>21414081
Isn't DS9 that show where a girl slept with a demonic shapeshifter, and isn't Voy that series where a BORG infiltrated a Starfleet vessel and then killed all of the other Borg?

>>21414091
Uhh... Odo slept with lwoxanna troi. Deannas mom.

You mean seven of nine? I guess there were times she sort of did that.

Odo really liked Kira though. Or do you mean the other changeling in the gamma quadrant that was the head of the dominion?

>>21414123
>Or do you mean the other changeling
Can we PLEASE not use racist terms here? This is a BLUE board.
Please refer to them by their preferred pronouns.

>>21413718 (OP)
all of it.

uhh ok i'll talk about popcorn
I don't add any "butter" because it's literally just flavored soybean oil. The amount of oil they used to pop the corn plus a bit of salt and powdered vinegar is more than enough flavor for me

>>21414313
>powdered vinegar
You what?

>>21413718 (OP)
None. It's already coated in the oil it's popped in. Which is plenty.
Even IF it were real butter I don't want it soaking my crunchy corn.

>>21413895

>>21414314
White vinegar is just maltodextrin diluted in water. The powdered version is cheap and readily available from any restaurant supply store. Grocery stores generally don't stock it as is, but there are plenty of salt and powdered vinegar mixes on the shelves

Holy shit. What did anon post to be banned and reported so many times?? Was it racism?

>>21414345
nigger

>>21414345
I think it was really autistic home theater talk.

>>21413718 (OP)
Butter should come from cows, not from an industrial machine.

>>21413718 (OP)
None, fuck popcorn.
Real chads walk into the cinema smuggling burgers under our shirts.
Burgers that we stuck there while looking the usher dead in the eye as we did it and daring them to say shit.

Hell, I've smuggled sushi into the cinema. You ever feel the joy of waiting till a quiet, dramatic moment to take the rubber band off an extremely loud plastic container? The piercing SNAP as you split the chopsticks?
It's exquisite.

>>21414421
Lemme let you in on a little secret, anon - they don't care.
The "no food" rule for theaters, 99 percent of the time, is just there so people don't bring in some shit curry or w/e that stinks up the whole room. That and food that's super sticky or really hard to clean up like taffy or caramel. Past that, only the most power-hungry hall monitor types would even raise a finger to stop you from bringing food in

>>21414476
Lemme let YOU in on a secret.
I would take curry in sometimes.

>>21413718 (OP)
>How much do you put on?
all of it

>>21414679
Based and fuck the police pilled

I don't add any more butter than how it comes. but I am an avid tryer of seasoning powders
>ol reliable S&P
>white cheddar
>kraft yellow cheese
>garlic salt & parmesan
>ranch & cayenne
>cajun/creole
and my personal favorite
>doritos flavor: garlic, onion, chili, cumin, paprika, salt, msg, & nutritional yeast/cheddar cheese
*everything above are all powders, I was t going to type it 30 times

I have yet to try
>taco seasoning
>chicken powder
>bbq rub
>furikake
>lemon pepper
>chile lime

>>21414313
>>21414314
will have to try salt & vinegar
>>21414679
adding curry powder to the list

taking any compelling suggestions

>>21413718 (OP)
I haven't used that shit in about 16 years.

>>21413718 (OP)
When I was a kid, I’d microwave bag of popcorn, then microwave a cube of butter, pour it into the bag, and shake the bag. It was really good, I had no idea how unhealthy that actually was but you can get away with stuff like that when you’re a kid.

>>21413724
What do you think it is?

A shit ton.
At home i just use butter. Can i buy or make the movie theater butter flavored topping for my home made poop corn?

>>21414751
Flavacol isnt a topping but something you add when popping the pop corn. A half tsp is enough for a large bowl. Seasoning salt really.

>>21413718 (OP)
All that I can plus whatever seasoning powders they have available. I like ranch.

>>21414341
Not only is everything you said wrong. Everyone is dumber for having heard it. May god have mercy on your soul. Acetic acid and water is white vinegar.

>>21413718 (OP)
I only spray air popped popcorn with cooking spray to get seasoning to stick.

>>21413718 (OP)
Imagine going to a theater in 2025.

>>21413731
push it real good

>>21417577
Couldn't be me
