During the pandemic I got a membership to the nearest cinema. It’s $10/mo for a screening you can cash in any time, and I guess there are some extra discounts on popcorn and whatever. If you don’t use it, it rolls over to the next month. Since on average, a movie I actually want to see on the big screen (most recently Dune 2) comes around every couple of months, it works out because I have 2 tickets by then and my wife and I have a little dinner/movie date.
You would choke on the prices here. A saver session is $33 per ticket before fees. If you’re a member it’s $32 before fees. Theses are sessions they put on when the majority are at work. A late night session is still $27.
Want gold class? $47 per ticket before fees.
These cinemas are fully automated with no floor staff with exceptions for food sales, and even then they just refill only (checkouts are self serve.) You can book online and pay a service fee or purchase in person from a kiosk device and guess what? Service fees. $6 per ticket online or in person.
I don’t actually know what the service fee is for.
Food is eye watering expensive to the point we bring our own. There’s no staff to say you can’t, but it’s buried in the fine print of the T&Cs.
