Definition

Someone with an irrational and unwavering loyalty to one specific movie theater, viewing all others with suspicion and disdain. These cinema purists will drive an extra 30 minutes to their chosen temple of film rather than set foot in a perfectly good theater down the street. It's brand loyalty meets geographical snobbery, now with reclining seats.

Example Usage

Jake is such a cinemist that he refused to see the movie with us because we suggested going to the AMC instead of his beloved Alamo Drafthouse.
