Ticket Price Hike for 3D Movies Effective Tomorrow

Ticket Price Hike for 3D Movies Effective Tomorrow

Those 3D movies have been raking in the cash but you know what they could be doing better? Raking in more cash. This is the thinking of theater owners today as they’ve decided that since movie tickets for 3D films aren’t expensive enough, the price of a movie ticket for a film in 3D (and in some cases, movie tickets for 2D films) will go up. The Wall Street Journal reports:

By how much the ticket price will go up will most likely vary among markets and theater chain, but for example, at the Regal Union Square 14 in New York, Alice in Wonderland today costs $16.50 for a non-matinee 3D show. Starting tomorrow, it will cost $17. Today, a ticket to see an IMAX 3D movie at the Regal Mall of Georgia costs $15.50 for a non-matinee show. Tomorrow, it will cost $17.50.

Good news. Maybe this will weed out and cause losses for more of the B-movies that hollywood by mistake puts i theaters instead of direct to dvd where such movies belong (Think of Clash of the Titans, Alice In Wonderland, Pirates 2, 3 and upcoming 4, sex and the city 1 and 2 and many more)

Nobody spends 200+ million dollars to put movies direct-to-video. I admit that Hollywood has gotten completely out-of-control with their budgeting, but it's not the first time and some type of correction or "day of judgment" is upcoming. I think you have a skewed perspective, especially [transition here] since you seem to think that nobody here watches Asian films...
