Ok so for the fun of it I thought I'd throw this in. I used to work for a theater so hopefully this helps someone.
DO
1. Bring $40 a person. This helps with high food prices,etc. in the theater.
2. Bring in outside food...just please hide it first. People might be looking for it.
3. Befriend loners. No one likes to see a party of one. And hey, the more the merrier!
4. Be prepared for NO sleep. And no I'm not kidding. As a site I once looked at stated 'if you can talk yourself into sleeping you can talk yourself into oversleeping.'
5. Be respectful. No loud talking,etc trust me yet again you never know who you are in there with, and some may know the staff that can well...kick you out for being disrespectful. Remember...its not just you that paid to see a good film at midnight or later.
6. Bring in caffeine and water. You'll need it.
7. Bring in games,books,etc.
8. Have fun and dress up!
And 9.
ARRIVE EARLY (with ticket in hand)!!
DON'T
1. Be loud, talkative, or obnoxious. You WILL have both adults and teens present and trust me most adults don't like it.
2. Take texts or phone calls during the film.
3. Try and save seats that you don't really need. (Though I recommend saving the seats of strangers so they'll pay it forward.)
4. Forget your money or ticket. Both are quite bad.
5. Leave a mess. It's not nice to those cleaning up after you.
6. Arrive at the last minute. Sorry, you won't get a good seat. Usually you need to arrive within 3-4 hours prior to the film...yes, I said HOURS.
7. Forget to ask of work. Yet again, another bad idea.

Basically the perfect dos/don'ts.
