I won't pay that. Simple as that. That's a crazy total.
This must be imax or 3d.
Looks like a pretty standard Friday night ticket for NY or Chicago
Pricing for the large scale theatre chains in Canada is similarly brutal.
The only movies I go to now are at the local independent cinema. Cheaper per ticket, membership that gets you access to two free members-only mystery screenings a month, the building itself is fucking gorgeous and I swear they grease their popcorn machine with crack.
Went a long time pretty much swearing off theatres entirely, but COVID gave me a bit of a "You need to support nice things that you want to keep existing" shake, so I'm happy to toss them a couple of bucks for the experience once and a while.
Where was that? I just went to the movies for the first time in years, and bought 5 adult "premium seating" tickets for CAD$91.80, taxes in.
$16.25 each
I'm also not the biggest fan of the whole required reservations thing either. It makes spontaneous movie nights with friends a massive hassle. You have to have a designated ticket buyer now, or somehow perfectly coordinate your online buying times to ensure you get seats together.
I mean it’s objectively way better. Before seat reservations that would happen anyway for popular movies. My group had to be split up many times because we’d walk into an almost full theater.
Yeah..nope
Nah, it's not that it's gotten more expensive, it's that most of the films are shit or otherwise unsatisfying. Maybe a combination of the two? :)
Of the films I've seen at the cinema recently, the last one I remember really enjoying was Joker (which is not even recent), and the most recent one I mostly enjoyed, but then it had a shit cliffhanger ending instead of feeling like a complete film in its own right. I was literally saying to my friend before the film started that Dune pissed me off because of the absolutely shit ending, and then the same fucking thing happened. I don't go to the cinema and pay $15-20 for the ticket to come out feeling like I watched half a season of some Netflix show. I could have a month of Netflix for the same money, watch what I want at my own convenience and pause/rewind if I need the toilet or want to check something.
I still like going to the cinema, but I feel like the movies have got to be more varied, more surprising, and fucking end properly instead of teasing a second part in a fucking year. I would love it if they were more respecting of my time and didn't run on for three fucking hours too. I'd love more movies like Terminator 2 where there is zero fluff and the whole thing ends in 2 hours? That's what the cinema is for!
It's expensive and at least here in Finland you have to watch 15 minutes of commercials despite paying for the ticket!
Cheaper to wait for streaming or Blu Ray. Bonus for Blu Ray - you actually own something.
Holy fucking shit balls.
That's crazy! I just paid $18 for IMAX tickets to Oppenheimer. Regular screen is like $11 here.
I got into Moviepass again because of this. They changed it from the last iteration to be points based. Around me a matinee is 10/20 and a normal time is 20/30 based on day of the week. They have deals certain days too where any movie is 7 points as well. I get the 34 credit plan for $10/mo and I get to go see 1 or 2 movies a month for less than 1 movie normally
AMC sucks, don't you have any other theaters around there to choose from? There is a theater near me that only charges $7 for normal tickets, and even cheaper for matinees. Then the AMC theater in my same town charges $12.50 for a ticket...plus that stupid convenience fee.
Went to an AMC theater recently after not going to one for years. I waited through about 30 minutes of forced ads before the movie started. The "shut off your cell phone warning" was about 10-15 min early. Guess I'm prepared to show up later than the advertised times in the future and skip it, but can't say I want to go back.
