what do you think?

gniiij · Answer

i think it would be D

gniiij · Answer

because it is the largest group of randomly chosen people

mysticfury · Answer

i think it would be D as well, B and C arent correct since thats not random, they are interviewing specific people.

A dosent mean they watched the movie or even ordered snacks. or that they even like the place so D makes the most sense, since its random and not specific
