Why does anyone go to the movies any more?

Big Dick McGee

If you don't know, now ya know
Last Saturday night I took milady out to the local cinema. Here is the breakdown:

2 tickets for Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist: $22
Medium Popcorn & Medium Drink: $12
Hot Dog & Medium Drink: $13.50
Reese's Pieces: $3.75
Total: $51.25

Granted, we could have skipped some snacks, but Jesus Christ! I have a top-of-the-line 52" Sharp Hi-Def tv, why the hell would I continue to fork out that kinda money for mediocre films? Even if we only paid for the tix, that's $22-about 1/3 of my monthly cable/internet bill! JEEBUS! No wonder the movie companies continue to post record revenues, the damned movies cost a fortune to see.

Why, back in my day...
 
Lockin because this is a duplicate thread. CLANG, NEROON-STYLE! *WHOOOOOSH* OFF TO QS&F!
 
Show up dressed as an ARAB WOMAN with food hidden under yer ROBES and if they try to search you call sexual/religous discrimination (use PC to your advantage for once lol omg!) then start making thinly-vieled references to "getting your boys" to "blow this fucker up". Then fake a heart attack.
 
I could just scream "RAPE" when handing over my money, and when the police come they'll hear how much I spent and be like, "Yup, Sonny Jim, you sure got raped allrighty."
 
Now, allow us to rape you some more by writing you this bogus fine. MWAHAHAHAHAH!!!
 
I haven't seen anything in a first run theater in some time. It does cost too much, you get to deal with advertisements and a concession stand that is over priced.
 
The free commentary you get when you go to see a shitty movie in a mostly black theater is priceless, though.
 
The problem is that I don't watch shitty movies. I'll only really go to the movies to see something I think is worth paying for.
 
The food over here is about a third cheaper, by the looks of things, but our tickets are less than half what you paid. That's really insane. Even in the centre of London where the cinemas probably have high rents and are basically tourist traps, it's still only about £8 a ticket, which is roughly $16. And round here in the suburbs it's about £5 a ticket, plus about another £5 if you don't bring your own food in with you.
 
I'm going to see Wall-E with the lil-lady in a few days. Money that could be well spent on alcohol acting like a wally but there you go.
 
You're gonna get laid. The movie is fucking adorable. Wall-E is money well-spent on a date.
 
WAALLLEEEEEEEE! EEEEEEEVVVVAAAAA! WAALLLEEEEEEEE! EEEEEEEVVVVAAAAA! WAALLLEEEEEEEE! EEEEEEEVVVVAAAAA! WAALLLEEEEEEEE! EEEEEEEVVVVAAAAA! WAALLLEEEEEEEE! EEEEEEEVVVVAAAAA!
 
I just go to matinees, if I go at all.
