Regional Movie Tix Prices

Ok, Gordon's thread got be wondering... In NYC now first run movie tix cost $10.25 a pop. What do they cost where you live?

generally between $6 and $7.

depends on where you go.. best theatre downtown is $9.

its usually less outside the city because its a. not in the city and b. seattle has some sort of entertainment tax (i.e. if its fun, its a sin and therefore must be taxed).

The big SilverCity cineplex chain charges�$13.50 for a regular evening film.�� Cheap Tuesday is 8 bucks.� What prices for stadium seating!

Tinseltown, the big multiplex downtown, is only 11 bucks with $6 Tuesdays and matinees.�� Pretty good prices for a Tuesday - and stadium seating too.

The mom & pop cinema�nearby is 8 bucks regularly and 5 bucks on Tuesday.� They have 6 screens, play new releases and even some arty films,�NO commercials, and use real butter on popcorn.� This place has a loyal following, even though the seats are not as fancy schmancy as either cineplex.

Annnd.. the bargain cinema chain charges 7 bucks regularly and 4 bucks on�Tuesdays and matinees.�

$2 at the second-run

$5.75 for matinees

$8.75 for after-6, regular run

In Columbus it's about $6-$8 depending on the theater and/or student status.

Bowling Green is closer to $5, and Toledo was a bit more than Columbus. The big, fancy, theater in Toledo (of which type we have lots of down here) is $9 and had no discounts.

Philly is $6 matinee and $8 full.
Rochester is $5 matinee and $7 full.

If that's Rochester, NY, it varies with where you're going... Tinsletown is up to $7.50 evenings, and $7.75 on Friday and Saturday. Regal Henrietta is just a flat $7.75.

3.75 all the time. first run movies.

Wow! That's really cheap. (I apologize for not ignoring you. Oops. When you change your screen name this will be cryptic. Hee!)

multiplex theater: Tuesday is the cheap day - about �5.50-6.50 (depending on seat)
Weekends may be up to �1.50 more expensive. There's an extra charge when the movie is longer than 2h.
You can get a free discount card. When you watch 5 movies within 2 months you get a movie for free (but the selection is limited)

If you go to one of the oversized expensive theatres you can expect to pay around $12.50 or�$13.50�Canadian for regular tickets.� At some places like Fairview Mall you can see movies for as low as $7.00 regular or $4.25 for a matin�e.� Once at Yorkdale I literally paid $16 to see one movie.� It's nuts.
