How Much Are You Paying When You Watch A Movie In Theatre?

Watiching movie in theatre, its really a amazing, 2 things on that one is as you said a wide screen which gives the real pic maximise , a human on wide screen becomes 5 times big and digital sounds hits to heart and make us a beat. In india, now as like philip comes to US 3$ TO 5$ depends on which kind of theatre you go Still becoming costlier and the add ons like parking, a small snack , transport .....hup in total its huge atleast $7 per head

Well, here in the US, if you can see a movie for only $4, it is usually a second rate movie theater where they are playing movies there that are usually coming out, or just released on DVD as well. Most places around here in the Seattle area charge over $10 to see a movie anymore. That to me is CRAZY. I wonder how people continue to flock there and pay prices like this, and this does not begin to cover Popcorn, etc. either.

Dear friend, In India that too south India for new released movies it comes Rs.40-Rs.60-Rs.80 ($1 = Rs.40 to Rs. 50) for those other than reservations. If reservations it cost more than extra Rs.30. Hence if in dollar it comes around $1.00 -$1.25-$2.00. If reservation may be nearer to $0.90 is more to be given. This change occurred suddenly as those rise in price of papers, inks, films, other equipments, the labour and other elements related to movie making increased simultaneously the price of movie tickets also increased its rates.

Well, how much was a ticket back in 1996? Well, that's what I paid! I saw Titanic.

We usually watch movie in the mall theater.There are three of us, my hubby, daughter and myself.I think we almost spend $25 for the three of us on the ticket only.Then we will have popcorn and soft drinks.I could say it is more expensive here i guess.We used to watch every friday but we are being frugal now and my hubby has no time.He is very busy on his business at this moment.

oh i think it's espensive for you to see a film , i am not like see a film compoesed with you .I sometime will spent 15-30 yuan to go to the theatre to see that ,so oppoes to your country ,it's really more cheap for me to see a film .haha maybe i will go to theatre more than the past from now on.

Movies are around $8 here so I never go to full price showings. I occasionally get free preview passes to see the film right before it's released to public. I also sometimes get gift cards. If I'm paying for a movie I usually go to the discount theaters that get the films later so it's only $1.50 admission. But really I rarely go to the theater anymore...I wait until they come out on DVD and get them free from the library or $1 movie rentals.

Our movies run around $8 to $10 if you are an adult and if you are a senior citizen, you may get them for a little less. I cannot find the exact price but we usually only go when there is a bargain or if we get a free pass -usually on either my husband or my birthday. Of course the birthday one gets in free. There are also days in the week where seeing the movie is cheaper, I believe here in Winnipeg it is Tuesday, but do not quote me on that. But even with that and the senior discount for me, we cannot afford to go to the movie more than twice a year and only if one of us can get in free. We usually wait for it to come out on the Movie Channel and on dvd.

A theater in Manila with that amount is one of the cheapest. At 120 php, you'll get to SM or Robinson's Cinemas while 150 to 200 at Rockwell. And at IMAX centers, you'll find yourself spending around 300 above, which depends on the film being played. Whenever I will date my wife, I carry around a thousand pesos but have to leave my credit card at home hehe. That would include the cinema fee, food and the gas for transpo.

That is pretty cheap for a movie. Where I am, going to the movies with my wife, including popcorn, drinks and transportation, it could easily chalk up a bill of $50 or more! And that is for the both of us. The prices of the tickets vary through out the week. For Monday to Thursdays(before 5pm on Thursday), the price of a ticket is $7.50. From Thursdays 5pm to Friday before 5pm, the price of a ticket is $8.50. From Friday 5pm onwards, Saturday and Sunday, including public holidays, the price goes up to $9.50. Wow... $4.00 for a movie ticket. So shiok. The last time I paid for a ticket that pice was when I was still wearing a school uniform and mugging for exams.

Well you have to also remember that if gasoline goes up, that means any product that isn't actually made & sold in that very building will go up as well! I don't really recall what a trip to the theatre cost's nowadays. It's been a while. I think just driving there costs more then the ticket though which has kind of reduced the amounts of time I go to theatre's lately! My guess is that gas is about $5-6+ just driving there, and about $4-$7+ for a ticket, plus I generally used to buy stuff there and since theatre stuff was generally expensive to begin with, I can only imagine how much it costs now! I would say at least about $4-$5 into that. I'm not sure that $13-$18+ for a trip to the theatre just to see one movie is worth it anymore, even if it is brand new!

I would love to find a movie for 4 dollars. Prices here in GA USA tend to vary between 7 and 12 dollars.

LOL it really is a bit pricey to watch a movie nowadays and including the cost for some snacks, watching a movie in a theater seems to be a hard choice. Given the option to rent or buy a DVD or just wait until its shown on some channel on TV does not make the choice any easier. But needless to say when the movie is that good I'm sure many people will still go to the theater. I know I would. LOL

About a decade back watching movies was pretty cheap in India. But now with all glitzy multiplexes opening up in India it has become pretty expensive affair and one cannot afford to go to the theatre very frequently or every week/ A normal ticket costs around Rupees 150= A little less than $3. So thats the rate of tickets out here.

I'm so sorry for coming in so late. It's about $2-2.5, here in India. But anyway, I don't like to watch movies in theater.

Hi friend myliez0903, haven't watch for a long time and I don't even know how much is the fee now in watching in theater hahaha.., Now that I heard and read it from you that it's around P120-180, no way! I will probably watch DVD at home. Thanks for the post, happy earning. Hugs my friend..take care!

$8.75 us dollars per movie per person.. needless to say i dont go to the movies often although i just saw batman!!

hi there, I live in the Philippines too, so it's about the same, honestly, I don't watch movies in theaters. The last time I saw a movie in the big screen was 2 years ago..lol.. I usually watch movies on the net, saves me time and money..lol..I know, that's illegal....but i'll try to see Dark Knight in theaters,way way better I guess.have fun!

I think it is outrageously expensive. I love seeing movies in theaters, but in my area of the US, movies are $9.50 each. And that's not the worst of it. You spend $4 on a bottle of water, another $5 on popcorn, etc. And, of course, they don't allow you to bring in your own snacks/drinks(Unless you sneak them in ). There are theaters that have cheaper movies for earlier show times, but even so it's just too much. Then if you have to pay someone to watch your kids, well, forget about it. I give up. I'll rent them from the public library and forego the big screen.

Hi. Nice to meet you here. It depends. If it is new movie then it will cost rm10 which is around $3 i think. After few days then it will cost rm8 around $2++. But if it is movies day on wednesday then it will cost rm5 which is only $1 or $2 like that. Happy myloting!!!
