Movie Theater

Movie Theater
Open Hours:	9:00am to 9:00pm
Address:	Abandoned JojaMart or Joja Warehouse

The Movie Theater is a building that allows players to watch movies, alone or with a guest, once every 7 days. It is unlocked either by completing the Community Center or all community upgrades offered by Morris.

If players choose to restore the Community Center, the night before the first rainy or stormy day after restoring the Center, there is a cutscene of a lightning bolt striking the doors to the abandoned JojaMart. Afterwards, the player may enter the abandoned JojaMart and find the Missing Bundle. The night after completing the Missing Bundle, the Junimos will build a Movie Theater.

If players choose the Joja route, they can purchase the Movie Theater from Morris for data-sort-value="500000">500,000g after completing all other community upgrades. The Joja Warehouse will then become a Movie Theater.

Players must purchase a Movie Ticket for data-sort-value="1000">1,000g to enter the Movie Theater. A second Movie Ticket can also be purchased for data-sort-value="1000">1,000g and given to a villager in the same way a gift is given. This will invite the villager to attend the movie with the player. To see the movie with the villager, enter the theater on the same day the ticket is gifted; otherwise, the ticket is forgotten.

Movies

There are 8 movies in total. Movies repeat on a 2-year cycle, based on the season in which the player unlocks the Movie Theater. All four "year 1" movies will cycle, followed by year 2 movies, then repeat. The year in the table below refers to the year in which the player first unlocks the Theater.

Asking a guest to a loved movie earns 200 Friendship points with the guest, a liked movie earns 100 Friendship points, and a disliked movie neither earns nor costs friendship points with the guest.

Note that Penny will love any movie if Pam is also present. Although it is impossible to invite both of them, there is a small chance that Pam will be in the audience of the movie when inviting Penny, as random community members are sometimes in the movie theater during the movie.

Crane Game

Inside the lobby is a Crane Game machine. Players can play the Crane Game for data-sort-value="500">500g to win prizes. The first time the player visits the Movie Theater, the crane game will always be occupied by a man, and unplayable. Afterwards, before watching a movie, there is a 25% chance that the Crane Game will be occupied.

After paying to play, the player has 3 chances to grab a prize. There is a 15-second timer for each attempt, which begins when the player first moves the crane. Successfully grabbing a prize on chance 1 or 2 does not end the game. Each time the player pays for a new game, the prizes will be randomized.

The first movement is horizontal, and places the crane (right-arrow on keyboard). The second movement is vertical, and drops the crane (down-arrow on keyboard). The crane will drop to the position of its shadow, which can be controlled by holding the down-arrow. Once the down-arrow button is released, the crane will drop. When the crane reaches its shadow, it will stop and grab any prize at that location.

The crane may drop the prize on its way to the collection chute at the left. The further away from the chute the item is, and the less firm the crane's grasp on the item is, the more likely it is to drop it.

Some of the more rare prizes (like the Dinosaur Egg or Movie Ticket) may be hidden behind foliage in the Crane Game, and become dislodged when the crane drops another prize.

Prizes

• Anytime: Futan Bear, Futan Rabbit, Small Junimo Plush (any color), Lg. Futan Bear, Dinosaur Egg, Omni Geode, Warp Totem: Farm, Mega Bomb, Movie Ticket, Exotic Tree, Deluxe Tree, House Plant 13, Poster from current movie

Notes

• Krobus will not attend movies on Fridays.
• Linus dislikes ALL of the movies; presumably he dislikes going to the movies in general.
• On the other hand, the Dwarf and Sandy love all of the movies; presumably they just enjoy the experience.
• Unlike presents, the cooldown on movies does not reset on Sunday. The player must wait at least 7 days after having seen a movie to give another Movie Ticket to an NPC or attend a movie alone.
• Even though Shane and Pam hate Joja Cola as a gift, Pam likes and Shane loves the Joja Cola concession snack.
• NPCs that can appear in the lobby include the Governor, Famous Painter Lupini, Welwick the Fortune Teller, and Marcello, who appears in Harvey's 10-heart event.
• Movie tickets can be purchased on festival days, but entry to the theater is not permitted. Attempting to give a ticket to a villager on a festival day will result in a popup box saying: "The movie theater isn't open on festival days!".

Trivia

• In 2011, ConcernedApe created a series of comics called Wumbus World.

History

• 1.4: Introduced.
• 1.4.4: Sam now likes Joja Cola as a concessions snack.
