In Poland cinema ticket costs ~5$. Is it really 10 times more expensive in USA? Why?
Avatar: The Way of Water at 6:30 has the same pricing.
A package of candy from a local store will be $1.50 - $3. (Each.) There's no way you're getting up to $100. (You could spend more by buying food inside the theater, but you'd have to be stupid to go for that.)
Fair enough - Netflix doesn't charge $10 for snacks & drinks, but I don't get them either.
Similarly, a glass of wine in a restaurant is "overpriced" compared to drinking on your home cough from a liquor store.
What I mean is: make a fair comparison, please. Different experience, different price.
(Though I concur that Poland ticket price sounds much more reasonable)
(includes half an hour of ads before the movie starts, at least that is what it used to be 5-10 years ago, I haven’t been to a cinema in years)
At least it seems to be consistent i.e. you can schedule to get in there 25 minutes late
