And you know what's ridiculous? Movies take in millions of dollars opening night and throughout the duration of time it's playing...they honestly don't need THAT much money. I bet they would make twice as much if they lowered the price to $6 on average.

Mmmm, I have to disagree there. Movies are becoming more and more expensive and each year, about 20% of a studio's movies fails to make enough money to cover the budget. The price of concessions has to be high because most of the money a movie makes goes to the movie studio. The movie theaters themselves are hard pressed for money, even though every year the movie industry is becoming more profitable.

Yeah, that's true. But it wouldn't be that way if everything wasn't so overpriced nowadays. What studios need to make a movie is usually more expensive than reasonable, therefore, it causes us to have to pay the price. The best solution: wait three months and Netflix it. lol

I pay like 12-18 bucks where I live. No point even buying the food there which is double the price of the ticket. (I always sneak food in, last time I baked brownies haha)

My theatre does $5 on Tuesdays so that's the only day I go to see movies.

thats a cool deal, yeah mine does 5 dollars from 4-6 on any movie any day, and 3D only makes it 6

in my town it's only 5. but it's such a shitty theater. so i usually go like 45 minutes away when I want to watch a movie, and there it's like 10.

We have a cheap movie place in my town--But it is so GD cold you wish the movie would end so you can get out and get warm. Even under a blanket you freeze. That is a set up for teen making out under those blankets. Even that won't warm it upsmile

Then don't go to see it.

I work at a theater so I get to see my movies for free! :D But it sucks having to deal with people complaining all day :( we don't make the prices!

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Yea wtf! I'd be heaps happy with $9! Here its like $17.50 and like $20 for 3-D and there's not much else choice because it's the only cinema around...and I am fairly sure that that cinema is raking in the dough. Cheap tuesday has tickets for like $14 though...not that that's very good either though.

Gah, I hate hearing people complaining about ticket prices. I work at a theatre and used to hear it every day, multiple times before I became projectionist. If you don't wanna pay that much to see it, wait. It's not a hard concept to grasp...

Netflix. So you have to wait for the dvd to come out, but its sure worth the wait than to pay 9 or more for a movie. Its also only 9 a month for unlimited movies. 11 for bluray option.

In our local cinema, evening tickets on certain days cost only $4 for customers under eighteen. The highest ticket price I've ever seen was $8 but that was a 3D movie.
