Every day I realize what a good investment is was to build a screen into my unused basement room.
(picture simulated)
just paid $3.97 to watch a movie on my TV at home with friends. that is ridiculous pricing
Not only that, but then the prices of all the food inside is unreal. I just wait until discounted ticket days at my local theater if I really wanna go see somethin
I like all the jokes about the fee. I’d say the price before that isn’t convenient either.
Where the F*** are you paying so much. Even with Canuck-bucks that's like double what it costs here
I actually went to a theater a couple of days ago after not going to one for a couple of years and I was shocked at the price. I’d much rather wait until I can just watch it from the comfort of my own home.
Also not worth it when others are talking and using their phone in the theatre.
wtf, lol...I pay Regal like $22/mo for unlimited movies and discounts on snacks, which I actually end up using quite a bit.
ItS ThE ExpERiEncE
wow you guys are getting rinsed over there!
for a UK perspective, we have a cinema chain over here called Everyman, it's cinemas but every seat is a sofa/couch! and you can order food to the seats. unless it's a peak screening, you usually get a whole couch to yourself. matinée shows are roughly ~$17 for adult, ~$11 for child. what's pictured in the OP is no doubt one of those pull-down chairs with the itchy carpet material too. ouch!
Imagine wanting some popcorn and candy to top it off... streaming from home is the way to go now and they did it to themselves.
It's a shame too, because there are some movies that just benefit from that large form factor viewing. I'd love to go see Oppenheimer on imax but I'll be damned if I have to spend 50 bucks to go watch it alone with some refreshments and snacks.
20$ a ticket whew plus the feel, this is almost as bad as doordash, like dang
That convenience fee is damn annoying. I usually just try to get the tickets in person.
You also have to go to a good theater, because a lot of the time you go and the picture is too dim and out of focus, and the sound system isn't balanced properly. That will be $60 dollars.
I think in the age of streaming saturation, going to movies still offer an experience for people vs watching Netflix on your couch. It should ultimately be something that's most of all, fun, and exciting.
Nobody should ever feel like they are getting ripped off for the money they paid, even if everything is getting more expensive, and having blatant tagged on fees, or request for tips for things that didn't use to ask for tips, just makes people feel bad that they got cheated out of their money. And that's not fun.
Our local theater has huge heated leather seats, a fantastic sound system, and you can go to a matinée for $6 with popcorn included. I love Marcus Theaters, they do it right. Good food and drinks, too, delivered to your seat.

Something tells me this was an imax or dolby theatre. In which case, of course the tickets are more expensive.
That's a ripoff. I imagine that theater is a lot nicer than the one nearest to me but tickets are usually $12 for an adult and $6 for a child. But on Wednesdays all tickets are $6 regardless of age. They call it date night but you don't have to bring a date. You can even come alone. Or so I've been told ಥ_ಥ
The popcorn isn't even all that expensive either, but the drinks are. I think mostly because drinks are the easiest to sneak in.
Lol, hell no. Especially when the movie will be streaming in 3 months time. Haven’t been to a theater since Endgame.
