I don't know how theaters in the UK work, but here, for two people? $50 easy.

Imax tickets locally are $22, x2 = $44 and that's before popcorn and drinks.

Are you forced to watch it in IMAX or is it possible in simple screening rooms as well?

18-22 before tax per ticket imax, 16 basic matinee. Doesn’t make a diff. it’s still expensive as all fuck, and the mouse has a 75% take thanks to them strong-arming theater chains.

Maybe if Disney lowered their take they could push more tickets and give theaters more room to breathe, but here we are.

Just looking at normal tickets at the local theater:

Kung Fu Panda 4 3D: $12 x2 = $24.

Love Lies Bleeding: $9 x2 = $18.

Dune 2: $14.75 x2 = $29.50.

Yeah I think the context of you buying tickets for 2 was missing from your first comment, but I completely agree.

Odeon sells "all you can watch" tickets for £14 a month. £17 for the "all you can watch" with premium seats updates.

£8.50 for a single film. That's everything as we include all taxes.

Why are you comparing to IMAX? That's already accepting that you are going to be paying over the odds.

Because somebody was confused over how movie tickets could be $50?

I mean, don't even get me started if you have kids to take...

These are only good if you are ghe kind of person who goes to the cinema allot. This isn't me. Even before covid I could count on 1 hand the number of times I went in a year.

Ironically the last 2 films I saw in a cinema was captain marvel and end game. Cap being a big reason why I was already indifferent.
