man, how much are your tickets? this is a poll. ours are $9 non 3d, $11 3d for night. subtract $2 for matinee -- nm - amanda Apr 30, 10:07 34
- So many answers to this. AMC? $13ish. A theater I actually like such as Arclight or The Landmark with 3D etc? $19ish -- nm - con_carne Apr 30, 10:30
- I think mine was $16 each for tonight. 3D, 9pm. AMC (reliners) -- nm - oblique Apr 30, 10:29
- $ 7 at the highest - geesh the rest of the world is getting ripped off $ 6 for sunday before noon -- nm - Epiphany Apr 30, 10:24 3
  - My 'Stubs' points are crazy b/c of it: $405.50 in Rewards, $75 Fees Waived, 125 Concession Upgrades -- nm - MDH Apr 30, 10:26 2
    - $405.50 in rewards....*boggles* I've let to Spend $400.00. I'm just coming up on a year of membership but still.. - JD Apr 30, 10:30
    - wow - that totally makes sense. We have a small chain across the street and they can't compete with the others, so they have crazy cheap tickets -- nm - Epiphany Apr 30, 10:30
- $13ish for a non-matinee 2D. I buy the AMC Gold/Regal Passes from Costco a lot though. Good for every movie, any showtime, including opening weekend -- nm - MDH Apr 30, 10:23 1
  - Reserved theater (where I'll be Saturday) is $7.50 before 12PM -- nm - MDH Apr 30, 10:24
- likely 14 per adult x 3, and one kid for 10 or 11. Kids need concession stand and I need popcorn. easy 30 bucks plus there. -- nm - Gjallergroin x 3 Apr 30, 10:10 17
  - bring your own snacks. way cheaper. -- nm - Andie Apr 30, 10:11 16
    - the kids associate the movies with popcorn and icees. - Gjallergroin x 3 Apr 30, 10:12 11
      - You are a good dad, friend. -- nm - Shaun Apr 30, 10:14 7
        
        you can never relive childhood. - Gjallergroin x 3 Apr 30, 10:15 6
        
        I was being serious! -- nm - Shaun Apr 30, 10:17 5
        
        I know, I feel bad because when I was young, I had to go without alot. - Gjallergroin x 3 Apr 30, 10:18 4
        
        *fist bump* - Epiphany Apr 30, 10:39 1
        
        I have a lot of faults, but I never wanna feel like being a bad dad is one of them. -- nm - Gjallergroin x 3 Apr 30, 10:41
        
        You are a really cool dad - amoxy Apr 30, 10:37
        
        That's fantastic -- nm - con_carne Apr 30, 10:19
      - The thrill of doing something illegal is part of the experience! :) -- nm - Guigue Apr 30, 10:13 2
        
        sure, we can go score some weed and meth on the way home, right after the drive by shooting. nm -- nm - Gjallergroin x 3 Apr 30, 10:14 1
        
        You are a good dad, friend. - Guigue Apr 30, 10:15
    - I just ask to use the microwave in the break room and I make my own popcorn -- nm - Guigue Apr 30, 10:11 3
      - haha. but seriously, drinks and chocolate? bring it in, -- nm - Andie Apr 30, 10:11 2
        
        I like that you're coming off as Naughty Aunt Andie in this thread - con_carne Apr 30, 10:18
        
        They used to go through bags when I was younger, not anymore. They didn't even check my gigantic backpack yesterday, and it was a advanced screening -- nm - Guigue Apr 30, 10:13
- In the big theater, $13 general adm, Extra $3 for 3D, extra $7 for IMAX. Tuesdays are $6 though (General only) -- nm - Guigue Apr 30, 10:10
- regular movie- $12.99, 3D regular-$15.99, AVX - $17.99, VIP-$19.99 (plus extras for 3D VIP, etc etc) -- nm - Andie Apr 30, 10:09 6
  - You forgot DBox, for when you want to feel like you're at the amusement park in the 90's -- nm - Guigue Apr 30, 10:10 5
    - i have yet to see a DBox movie. -- nm - Andie Apr 30, 10:11 4
      - It's in the same theater though, there's just a row of DBOX seats. -- nm - Guigue Apr 30, 10:12 3
        
        yeah, i tried a couple times but they were always sold out. -- nm - Andie Apr 30, 10:12 2
        
        Really? I didn't think it was popular. I can't imagine what it would be like for Avengers. That movie was so loud already, everything was shaking - Guigue Apr 30, 10:14 1
        
        I see more people shooed out of those seats than I do sitting in them. (But I'll rarely go to a crowded show) -- nm - Roger More Apr 30, 10:18
i was about to buy us tickets, with reserved seating, for Sunday but it was over $40 for 2. I couldn't do it. -- nm - Andie Apr 30, 10:05 2
- I got 2 tickets for Saturday reserved seating at noon non 3d for 2 for 13$ -- nm - eag Apr 30, 10:08
- we typically just wait and buy the blu-ray/DVD now. cheaper and can watch whenever and how ever many times we want -- nm - Beaker Apr 30, 10:06
can you get movie packages at Costco? That is what we do now for the kids. $10 gets you the ticket plus snack -- nm - Beaker Apr 30, 10:05 11
- can you use them for opening weekend shows? -- nm - Gjallergroin x 3 Apr 30, 10:05 10
  - yeah, this I don't know -- nm - Beaker Apr 30, 10:05 9
    - Pretty sure you can as they aren't promotinal passes. -- nm - Shaun Apr 30, 10:12 8
      - I found a lot of those type packs are not valid for movies opening weekends. - Gjallergroin x 3 Apr 30, 10:13 7
        
        Perhaps, I don't know 100% though. -- nm - Shaun Apr 30, 10:14 6
        
        pretty sure ours are (I had to check :) ) - Beaker Apr 30, 10:17 5
        
        How much are the 2 adult passes now? iirc, it's $27? -- nm - Shaun Apr 30, 10:19 4
        
        $25 I think. 2 drinks, 2 tickets 1 popcorn -- nm - Beaker Apr 30, 10:21 3
        
        That's a good deal. Might have to grab one for Avengers. -- nm - Shaun Apr 30, 10:22 2
        
        Most Costco's also have the 2 tickets deal for $16/17 -- nm - MDH Apr 30, 10:27 1
        
        For Cineplex Theatres? -- nm - Shaun Apr 30, 10:33
