Yeah. The cost of movie tickets is outrageous nowadays, and the snacks are just as bad. 50-60 bucks for a movie, popcorn, and a drink for two.
A minimum wage person has to work for 6 or 7 hours to take their friend out to a movie at that rate--ridiculous lol
What the fuck, where does a movie cost that much? I'm already astounded to have to pay 12 bucks for a movie and then another 8 or so for popcorn and drinks. Can definitely go for cheaper in smaller theaters though.
