I was just wondering what you guys pay for movie tickets at your local thearters. Here in the Grand Rapids Area we have three Main thearters.

Cinemark

Depending on theatre and time it's from $6.00-$8.50 here in the Twin Cities.

I've heard that it gets real expensive in new york city

I paid like $10 for one in LA.

what movie was it for

Harold and Kumar Go to Whitecastle

10 bucks here.............................................. . not bad for a small country town

screw tickets, buy bootlegs 5 bucks

Here in Delaware it's 6.50 for a matinee and 10.00 for prime time.

Screw BUYING bootlegs, download them yourself for free

umm yeah what he said lol

lol, how many movies u download a wee sam

oddly enough, not many. I don't have the patience to just download all willy-nilly, so I usually just stick to the stuff I REALLY want to see, but isn't playing around/at the time, or if I don't want to wait to see it at the theater. Like right now I'm downloading The Machinist, which isn't playing at any theater within 30 miles of my house.

so far tonight i downloaded exorcist the beginning, and im downloading Doctor Gore

Here it's $9...I guess that's pretty average...

FInished doctor gore and now dling shaun of the dead 85% done

Punisher... So that was $10 I would have been better off giving to a bum on the corner, rather than waste my time watching that shitty movie.

I paid $14 or $14.50 at Hoyts for a friday night session last week.

Bloody expensive come to think of it :rolleyes:

holy shit 14 bucks

Yeah I know. How bad is that!?!?!

ticket prices in toronto are varied ..
even for new releases .. we have so called 'luxury theatres' where you can play $14 or $15 or the regulars that are $13.
there are some budget theatres around $9 or $10 .. and before 5:00pm its even cheaper.

the sweet thing is that often the cereal i buy has $4.00 coupons for the show.

so the 3 of us can go to this one theatre near us in the afternoon and pay $3.00 in total ..

It's $12.00 here where i live. And heaven forbid you buy snacks, might as well mortgage the fucking house.

thats where the theatre makes their money ... not on the ticket sales .. that barely pays for the film rental.

they are able to stay in business only because of the consessions ..

Thx there Columbo.

Haha...

Yeah on that friday night that I went they had a mad special...

1 large popcorn and 1 large Coke for only $10.00

I dont know how they can do it that cheap :rolleyes:

I would have hated to have paid the full price for it!!

What gets me though is that foutain pop is like 10.00 for a 20lt bag of syrup and popcorn is like what .05 for 100 lbs lol.

*bends over and takes it like a trooper*

i never buy the crap when i go ..
i dont get the culture of eating at the show.

plus its noisy !

:rolleyes:

c'mon .. hot dogs and nachos ?

Here in PA, because they are not very accessible, we pay anywhere from $1,000 to $1,500 for an adult manatee.

whats worse is that they are fussy eaters and its a bitch to find a tank large enough.

That and their boring pets. Juts try to get one to fetch.....go ahead....just try.

"Here in PA, because they are not very accessible, we pay anywhere from $1,000 to $1,500 for an adult manatee."

You people crack me up!

That's really very funny.

:D

It's the caffeine.

I just thought he spelt matinée wrong and fucked up the "." lol now i feel like a dumbass.

The theater we have in town only has 2 screens its 5 bucks for a flick but the theater only holds about 30 people.

Its like watching a movie on a big screen television, so we dont go there often. Have to drive about 70 miles to see a film on an actual screen over 7 feet wide.

We do have a drive in down in Gibson City, Harvest Moon drive in, only thing is they run a half hour intermission so people can go to the snack bar.

Its like 20 bucks a carload so that aint too bad, we take the truck, the cooler, and the baby weber and BBQ there. Some folks get there real early and play softball in the bean field or whatever. Its a good time, plus you listen to the movie over your car stereo which is kind of kool.

It is WAY COOL that you have a drive-in somewhere nearby. There are very few of 'em left, and we gotta cherish them before they get bulldozed. Drive-Ins are THE COOLEST thing, in the world. Well, next to one or two or three other things.

I know of one that is local here in Los Angeles, and I would love to go sometime, it's been twelve freaking years since I've been to one!

ill just wait for the dvd so i can have a beer and a smoke

Damn, I guess I am paying a small fee compared to alot of u

spend about 3 bucks and stay home in the dark and catch a buzz of some beerzzz thats the way to do it
