Anon ends his day at the kinoplex

I might be missing some context here.
- Do you not have a kinoplex?
  
  It seems so

What the fuck is kino
- It's German for "cinema". No idea, if that's the context, though.
  
  I'm pretty sure it's the right context, because it fits. Odd story, but it fits
- “Kino”, from the Greek “kine”(to move), is Internet slang for a motion picture. In particular, it is used to denote works with special artistic merit. The word is also used to describe events and art bearing a cinematic quality either in concept or execution.
  
  Internet slang is a lot like German.
  
  Is that what 4channers mean when they call anything else kino? I shouldn't have asked this in a thread about a fake movie theater
- On 4chan it's slang for "awesome"
- eating - dining
  cinema - kino
- I don't know what based means and at this point I'm too afraid to ask.
  
  Yeah except kino isn’t golden in Japanese

WTF did I just read?
- I absolutely read this in Elijah Wood's voice telling about any normal day he has and that's what I'm sticking with.

What a whimsical tale

I read all of this, but I feel like I didn't. What did you do to me?
