How expensive is too much for you to go see a movie at the theatre?

It's insane nowadays. I paid $9 one night to see a movie. It's cheaper to rent and the food is just outrageous.

I simply don't go.We get every movie channel available so I just wait for them to come on cable.My son likes buying them instead of going out so I get to watch them that way too.

In my country is 20000rupiahs

I am very rather going to see the movie in the theater, because it is expensive for me. about $2.50 - $3.00. and in my country there are have programs to make people in my country watching movie in theater, the names is "nomat" or "nonton hemat" or in English "cheap watching movie" in Sunday about $1.50 - $2.00. and it is work!! cause every Sunday the theater is full and crowded people

yes,..its way too much to see a movie, i used to wait the movie in television, beside im too busy to go to theatre. :( noo

I rarely go to the movie because I haven't watch TV for years. But when I go the movie must be good so I don't have to waste my time.

I stopped going to the movies a long time ago. This is just too expensive for me especially after you tack on popcorn and a drink. I kind of feel sorry for teenagers dating now. An evening at the movies could really set some poor guy back a lot. We usually wait for the dvd to come out. We can fix our own snacks at a fraction of the cost of theater ones, as well as pause it if we have to go to the bathroom. hehe

It ranges from $8.50 to $9.50 out this way. For a matinee it is usally around $7.00. Some movies will give you the matinee price if you are a senior. But still, double it and it is too expensive for 1 1/2 hours of entertainment. I rather rent a bunch of dvds and relax in my home.

To me $7.50 is too expensive. We used to go to this dollar theater in Iowa but since we've moved to Ky, we only went once because it is too expensive down here. Now we just rent movies, which is alot better anyways.

Here it costs $12 per person to see a movie. But I have seven children. And of course, they do not allow outside food to be brought in. So, we do not go to the movies. We would rather spend the same amount of money it would cost to get two people in to buy the movie and microwave popcorn. Then it is better because we can pause it for potty breaks. :)

I rarely see movies in the theater anymore. It's way too expensive. With an adult ticket at $10+ and a child ticket at $7+, it costs me at least $75 for a movie and concessions. I'd rather wait until it comes out on DVD and either rent or buy the movie.

It has to be a movie, I'm VERY interested in seeing. Otherwise, with the high prices, I'd rather just wait until it come out on DVD..lol

I always go to the matinees because they are less expensive. The theater I go to charges $5.50 for children 12 and under and $6.50 for adults for the matinee. The admission for adults after 4:00 pm is $8.50. So I either go to the matinee or I just wait until the movie comes out on DVD.

I think the cost of movies today is way to expensive. Why should I pay $10.00 to see a movie ( even though I still do it). There should be a decrease in how much a movie ticket is.

the movies around here are $8 after 6:00. We have on Demand and the movies are only $4.99 so we just wait until the movie comes out. I mean sometimes we go to the movies just to go out but mainly we just watch it On Demand.

After $12 I consider it ridiculous. It is $9 or $10 during the day at most places around here.

I agree with you that going to the movies can be quite expensive these days!!! Not only for the movie itself but also because of the prices of the snacks now as well!!! I went to visit Everett , Washington and it was $15 for 2 popcorn and 2 drinks...EXTREME!!!

Movies is getting expensive nowadays. Dear hubby and I agreed that instead of going to the movies, we just put the money to our baby's (bank) account every payday. Besides, we get 3 movies (same time) from Netflix so it's pretty good!

I never miss movies .I watch every movie in theatre.....But the reason for that is ,In India movies in good multiplex would cost only 60RS in morning and maximum upto 150Rs at night. 1$ = 50Rs So, In morning It would cost only a 1$ And at night may be 2$ or 3$ but not more than that... Being very lucky in this case......its not too expensive.

I think it is 8 euro per adult, which would work out to about $10.40 per person. That must be matinee prices because as we take the kids we never to go the movies in the evenings. What a rip off!
