Who cares about it in this context? Is film maker supposed to think about some random Joe cleaning the popcorn after screening and optimise his movie for least popcorn spillage??

No one asked him to change the movie or to anticipate audience reaction beforehand. I just think he’s a moron for endorsing rude (and occasionally dangerous) behavior. (Possibly also for making a terrible film; haven’t seen it.)

It’s not his job to care about this. He is there for making the certain experience. Whether people cleaning get paid adequately is not his job to take into account

It’s isn’t anyone’s “job” to care about this. It’s called being a decent human being with a modicum of respect for others. So such of this raging greedy narcissism.

If nobody wants to work at a theatre and its hard to hire, that is the prime time to ask for a raise tho

I don’t know that it’s hard to hire. You can’t just not have income under capitalism, and you don’t have a lot of choice as a worker when pretty much everywhere is offering the worst conditions they can get away with. They’re more likely to replace you than give you a raise.

I wrote that as a former movie theater usher. I literally did that job. You regularly clean up giant messes. Kids matinees were always the messiest. That is the job. When you aren’t cleaning auditoriums, you’re cleaning toilets, the lobby, polishing the brass on the stanchions, etc. There’s literally no idle time being stolen by this work.
It’s fine.
