A movie in cinema costs between €7 and €8 here, in the weekend. During the week it's about €6, or €5 with discount for students.

I liked Revolutions, but I didn't feel the need to see it again...

So all a movie needs to be great is to have nice special effects?

Teenagers are so ****ing stupid.

I suppose I'll take time out here to inform midwesterners that the Marcus Theaters are the best deal in movies. Go before 5:15, catch the early show for $5.25 buy a 32oz pop for $4.00, after that show (since the marcus theaters are so huge, there's 0 security coverage) refill your pop (refills are free) and go to another show. 2 moves, 64 ounces of pop, $9.25.

Though I suppose it is illegal, everyone does it, and everyone KNOWS that everyone does it, it's kind of a traditonal thing, so long as you don't sneek into a sold out show, they never kick you out. It's to the point where it's almost as if the theaters are marketed towards people seeing 2 for the price of one.



Oh yeah, almost forgot: Free refills on popcorn too.

Here at the not-sh*tty theatres (I especially frequent the Cineplex Odeon) it's like 12 or 13 bucks Canadian for an adult ticket. Add to that some popcorn, a pop, and maybe a little something else (a chocolate bar or whatever) and a night at the movies is usually about 25-30 bucks a person.

I think at the cheap theatres the admission is like 5 or 6 bucks, but they only play old sucky movies, and they end up gouging you a bit at the concessions anyway.

I always bring my own food, even though it's not allowed. Prices for food are crazy, €3 for half a litre of coke. :eek:

Because special effects is the only thing he listed, you jump to the conclusion that special effects is the only thing he thinks the movie has going for it?

Xantar is so fu[use your imagination here]

My friend once smuggled in a 12 pack of coke into the theaters. The next challenge is an entire pizza in it's box.

I didn't jump to any such conclusion. I just asked him to clarify his position because I honestly didn't believe he thought special effects was the only thing the movie had going for it. That's why I asked him a question instead of just making a statement.

The fact that he hasn't answered back to the post makes me wonder, but I'm happy to just wait for him. It's not that important.

The teenagers thing is a tangential comment and a joke besides.
