Comment on AMC Theatres Quarterly Losses Hit $202.1 Million After Box Office Got Off to Rocky Start
StonerCowboy@lemm.ee 11 hours agoI don’t go to bad theaters I have one of the best imax theaters in my state.
Theaters just are over expensive garbage and yes my home setup with a 75 inch OLED and Dolby atmos surround is better then then $100+ im gonna spend to watch shitty movies at the box office. Not to mention the traffic, the annoying mother fuckers on their phones instead of watching the film.
Movie theaters act like they are Disney world.
Watching at home in peace and quiet while smoking my weed will be a million times better then a theater.
The last great experience I had in theater was with Infinity War. Nothings hit the same since.

There is exactly zero reasons to spend $100 at the theater for less than 6 people. Maybe 5 people if your in Manhattan

You can skip the snacks. They aren’t required.
Your total could have been $53.04.
And you might have been able to skip the convenience fee if you got the fix at the theater directly. Some times they still have an extra fee.

Or you can stay home and have all the snacks you could want. How much amc stocks have you “invested” to be shilling for them so hard?

Tickets around the US range from $9-16 typically.
A few high end markets or “special thearters”, they can be over $20.
