    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.

    What world does that guy live in? Nobody gives a shit about what audiences think as long as the money keeps rolling.

      Well then the paying customer should punish these merchants by deny them profit.

        Personally I already do that by only going to the theatre when I’m really excited for a movie, which only happens maybe once a year, or am invited out by my movie-goer friend (maybe twice or thrice a year).

        Last thing I saw in theatres was Late Night with the Devil, and before that was Tenet. It’s not hard to wait for a home release.

        They certainly should. But unfortunately they don’t.
