All for the price of 4 movie tickets.

The TV by itself is roughly 200 movie tickets worth, and that's just the ticket, no snacks, fuel, parking etc.

Actually amazing value when you look at it like that.

Last time we went to a movie theater (few years back) it was over $100 for 4 people + a shared popcorn and a few drinks. That was a matinee. Haven't been back. I'll dump that cash into TV upgrades, thanks.
