I don't think I've been to a theater in 6+ years. $20+ for a single ticket, $15 for $.30 of popcorn+mystery chems, and another $15 for $.20 worth of a drink all while they pay high school children $7/hr. So that's $50 for me to sit in a dirty chair surrounded by assholes on their phones and running their mouths? I don't think that's something I'd like to pay for.
I go to the theater perhaps once a year.
Given the costs, I go to Alamo. At least for the money I don't get rude assholes around me, I can drink a beer and have a burger.
Yep, costs more. But it's a much better experience.
I've wanted to go to an Alamo for sometime, residual because they will have releases not found elsewhere.
