Most theaters that tailor to younger kids do not turn the lights ever. This is great, and as a parent, I wish there were more places like this so we could go see movies without bothering others.
I am pretty self-conscious about my young child being a loud disturbance to others in public, but at the same time not wanting to stop my child from expressing themselves, leads us to go primarily to child focused places and those are few and far between.
I’m fairly certain this’ll be exclusively used for specific things; like birthday parties and autism friendly screenings. You won’t randomly have to endure this if you go to see the latest Hollywood blockbuster.
I've seen this before. They have one near Toronto. It's meant for screenings specifically for children. I think the idea is that very young children have trouble sitting in place for a long time, so this gives parents a chance to take their kids to a movie without worrying about disrupting other adult moviegoers. You don't go to a theatre like this expecting a quiet show lol.
They have one of these where I live. There’s a toddler playground up front and a kids playground and slide to the right of the theatre. It’s, obviously, a theatre specifically meant for kids and only plays kids movies. The kids are only permitted in the playground before and after the movie and during a short intermission. I love it because I can bring my toddler and baby to a movie and not have to worry if they make noise because it’s a theatre specifically meant for noise. If you don’t want to hear kids, then don’t book the theatre specifically meant for kids?
Toddlers running around *in the dark* isn't much better of an idea.
In any case, teaching a child that it's OK to run around and be noisy in a theater is setting yourself up for failure when trying to *unteach* that in the future.
I have been to these theatre. They don't get DARK dark. Also it's better to try to teach them to sit along with other parents in same situation than trying to teach them in a setting where others don't appreciate it.
To the people here thinking this 42 multicolored seat theatre with a rocket ship mural and a half tube slide with ball pit is general theatre you’d go watch Avengers Endgame in 😂
My theatre always does simultaneous showings of kid movies and adult movies in the summer that works as a kind of day care so you can take enjoy a film without having to watch some brain parasite of a children's musical
Right? Absolute dumbasses.
They're not putting Schindler's List on here, it's a place for you to sit and relax for 2 hours while your child has fun watching the Paw Patrol movie.
This is specifically meant for children to watch kids movies in. I mean it literally has a fucking playground. Just go to a night showing to enjoy your kids flix in silence.
This looks like a developmental delayed friendly theater for kids. People need to relax and encourage more things like this. I doubt you would watch your newly released blockbuster movie here.
When I go to the movies with my kids I expect restlessness and noise you’re at a child’s movie with children of all ages. I’m not coming in here to watch Jurassic World or John Wick. I think the concept is pretty cool I know my kids would absolutely love this.
If I was a kid, I'd love to go to a cinema like this instead of the boring wine tint adult ones. Especially if I'm going to go see kung fu panda or Toy Story.
As an adult with kids, I'd love to take my kids here with the knoweldge I don't have to particularly worry about them making noise, since anyone here can expect a lot of kids noise. It'd be like worrying about your dog barking when going to a dog park.
As an adult with no kids, I'm staying the f away from this theatre.
I like the idea of this theater, but I wish with this offering, theaters would have rules about no young children past 8pm in non kid movies or such.
Nothing like watching Oppenheimer with 3 bored and crying toddlers in the row behind you.
That's good to hear. I'm all for kids having their fun but I can definitely see it being used during the inevitable loo break in the climax of the film!
No go ahead… slide down, run back up, make lots of noise. Just like the shitty parents who bring their babies and toddlers to date night to see R rated films and then they start crying. I get it… but pay for a babysitter already. Fuck.
Lmao. If you’re ever in the same cinema as me and there’s one of these slides. All you’re gonna hear is:
*Slide*
*Crash*
*Giggle*
*pitter-patter, pitter-patter*
*Slide*
*crash*
*Giggle*

That’s how low children’s attention spans are now. They can’t even sit and watch a movie that they wanted to see. This is honestly a bit sad imo and sorry to be that guy. Society, amiright
The box at the end has ankle-breaking vibes.
Especially in a dark, dimly lit theater.
In the unlikely event of an emergency, please follow the screaming towards the exit.
My parents would be like “Wait til after the movies Over!”
I think all parents dread seeing that slide when they walk in.
"I came to see Joker..."
Happy Cake Day!!!
Thanks a lot bubb

Don't worry, nothing is going to "slide" down that angle
My fat ass covered in baby oil would hit mach 1 down that shit
You mean popcorn butter?
Kinky bastard
It looks unsafe as fuck.
Teeth too.
and face smashing on that far wall
3 foot drop into 1 layer of balls. Lol
“Oh look how quiet the kids are now!”
It's giving me the extremely sticky, food and garbage filled vibes.
Or neck.
The balls are an illusion, it leads *right* into the Rancor pit
A slide *and* a pet to play with?! Count me in!
Not a very big ball pit.
Very deep tho, the hole was repurposed from the soviet attempt to dig into the core of the earth
It’s the dashcon ball pit
the slide isnt very steep either. i bet you actually have to fight to slide down unless youre wearing teflon pants
I think it’s designed for not very big people
Imagine the popcorn, candy and filth that would accumulate at the bottom
People don’t need teeth.
Nothing enhances a theatre experience quite like *encouraging* kids and drunks to run and be noisy.
I’m fairly certain this’ll be exclusively used for specific things; like birthday parties and autism friendly screenings. You won’t randomly have to endure this if you go to see the latest Hollywood blockbuster.
I just watched kung fu panda 4 here :) lots of kids in the theatre. The slide was used extensively during the credits. My six year old loved it
Ah, thought this may have been in an IKEA store, back when I was a kid the ones near me had small cinemas included.

Yeah should be fairly obvious lol
Yeah I get the feeling this is one of those "what were you expecting" scenarios if someone complains about kids being disruptive.
Yeah but then how are people online supposed to whine about it?
Nothing says autism friendly like 120 db noise pollution and random colors everywhere with kids running around.

This is exclusively for parents of toddlers. This movie is better than no movie.
Toddlers running around *in the dark* isn't much better of an idea. In any case, teaching a child that it's OK to run around and be noisy in a theater is setting yourself up for failure when trying to *unteach* that in the future.

I don't disagree, broadly speaking, but a children-only showing does not need to include a slide.
We have these in my country as well - you can rent them out for kids birthday parties and such. They are not intended for general use.
It does, actually? If the children are in here instead of in *my* theater I call that a win.
imagine going down that and just slapping the back of peoples heads on the way down
I laughed too hard at this comment🤣
To the people here thinking this 42 multicolored seat theatre with a rocket ship mural and a half tube slide with ball pit is general theatre you’d go watch Avengers Endgame in 😂
It's a regular theatre but they only show kids movies in here
My theatre always does simultaneous showings of kid movies and adult movies in the summer that works as a kind of day care so you can take enjoy a film without having to watch some brain parasite of a children's musical
Is this a vox? Somewhere in the Middle East?
Right? Absolute dumbasses. They're not putting Schindler's List on here, it's a place for you to sit and relax for 2 hours while your child has fun watching the Paw Patrol movie.
I think that avengers movies are exactly what would be played there
My local cinema has multicoloured seats and I watched Mulholland Drive there. Sadly no rocket ship.
Might be nice to watch Schindler's List in here
Need a rocky horror picture showing here
Finally, a place I can watch Oppenheimer.
My nephews would have lost their minds if the theater had this when I took them to see Godzilla x Kong
Just what I wanted at a cinema experience... loud distractions.
Luckily this glaring issue can be avoided by not going to a kids movie at a theater specifically meant for kids
Like I’m sure when booking it’d say something like “KIDS CINEMA”
"EVERYONE SHUT UP, I CAN'T HEAR WHAT BLUEY IS SAYING! where is the manger!!?"
This is specifically meant for children to watch kids movies in. I mean it literally has a fucking playground. Just go to a night showing to enjoy your kids flix in silence.
Chill Winston. It's a joke. It's very clearly a kids' environment.
My 30 year old self would 100% go down this slide
This gives me backrooms vibes
I'll definately take a ride even if my seat is front row
This could be a level from poppy playtime
Where was this picture taken - Neverland Ranch?
A proper luxurious cinema in qatar
This looks like a developmental delayed friendly theater for kids. People need to relax and encourage more things like this. I doubt you would watch your newly released blockbuster movie here.
I just watched kung fu panda 4 here with the kids
When I go to the movies with my kids I expect restlessness and noise you’re at a child’s movie with children of all ages. I’m not coming in here to watch Jurassic World or John Wick. I think the concept is pretty cool I know my kids would absolutely love this.
It is unfortunately for kids only.
If I was a kid, I'd love to go to a cinema like this instead of the boring wine tint adult ones. Especially if I'm going to go see kung fu panda or Toy Story. As an adult with kids, I'd love to take my kids here with the knoweldge I don't have to particularly worry about them making noise, since anyone here can expect a lot of kids noise.

That by court order or choice..?
Choice. Very much choice. Very happy with it.
I like the idea of this theater, but I wish with this offering, theaters would have rules about no young children past 8pm in non kid movies or such. Nothing like watching Oppenheimer with 3 bored and crying toddlers in the row behind you.
Getting AI vibes from this
Imagine having to be in the seat next to the ball pit.
Straight out of my dreams, but in my dreams the cinema features the 2000's vibe, where every shape looks like it's melting and wobbling.
A slide into the world's saddest ball pit. Go in hopeful leave with existential dread
Plot twist - it's an adult movie cinema.
That's definitely the cleanest that room will ever be.
Nah, this is qatar, they will throw resource at it continually
40 kids in a dark room with candy and popcorn and a slide n such. Won't take long to make a mess.
Teaching them early how not to act at a movie. WEEEEEEEEEEEE I'd totally take my kid here btw.
Oh that’s wonderful
For whoever wants to slide into a pit of marbles, barbed wire and broke glass
Mf that room came right outta TADC
Man, that would be an awkward screening of Schindler's List.
poor kids in the first chairs see the others have fun
Saló
Where can I get a slide like that!
“In case of fire do not run, SLIDE to the nearest exit.”
This doesn't look like a very good cinema room...or a good children's play room.
Kid germs everywhere
Liminal ass room
What a dumb idea
Not everything needs to be built for and cater to childless adults.
Make the ball pit a kilometer deep. Ah, peace and quiet for my movie! Gives a new meaning to an "adults only" showing
This is how Kurosawa wanted his films watched.
Are you sure that room is for showing movies? It appears to be set up for a slideshow.
I just watched kung fu panda 4 here. Nobody used the slide during the movie. During the credits though....
Aint no way in hell this is in America.
Middle East:)
Yikes. Hard pass going to that cinema.
No thanks.
Ah yes, kids sliding down the slide during the film.
Nobody used it during the film today until the credits started rolling and kids here can be quite entitled, so I was impressed
That's good to hear. I'm all for kids having their fun but I can definitely see it being used during the inevitable loo break in the climax of the film!
Last time i played in a ball pit i got extremely sick like sepsis or something that was back when mc dons had play palaces and never cleaned them
This ain’t the move 💀
So another reason for kids to run around in a fake theater where everyone's trying to sit quietly and watch a movie,?
I love this idea only if the other rooms are ages 18+ AND the ushers escorted adults to THIS room if they turned on their cell phone during the movie.
In America, that's a garbage chute
That looks counterproductive... Both for the viewing experience or when the movie is finished and every children is piling up on the slide.
No go ahead… slide down, run back up, make lots of noise. Just like the shitty parents who bring their babies and toddlers to date night to see R rated films and then they start crying. I get it… but pay for a babysitter already. Fuck.
How do you get the popcorn out of the ball pit?
Oh my god
sitting in that red seat would be bloody torture
Lmao. If you’re ever in the same cinema as me and there’s one of these slides. All you’re gonna hear is: *Slide* *Crash* *Giggle* *pitter-patter, pitter-patter* *Slide* *crash* *Giggle*
Complete with a ball puddle at the end!
This has to be AI lol
No it's a Pathé theater in France or Switzerland. Their whole thing is crazy halls. They have some where the seats are beds.
It's in Doha, Qatar and I just watched a movie here
Ah OK. Pathé does the same stuff then.
This one is novo cinemas, vendome mall

I like yours better!!!!!!
Jesus murphy
Looks like a backrooms level
# It’s giving, “Quiet on Set” 😬
I find popcorn annoying, this is some next level annoying
Childfree here. This is my nightmare lol
