Let's just go around and state what the price of one adult to go to a movie at your local theater is.

Here: $9.00 a pop.

It's six dollars if I go to see a matinee at a local theatre. It usually costs me anywhere from eight-nine dollars if I'm going at night.

Highest price at the local is $8.00 on Friday and Saturday nights after 6 PM. It is $5.00 all day Tuesday and at the first showing of the day. Students w/ID pay $6.50

Obscene

Last movie I actually paid for was Beowulf in 3D. Most movies we see on Netflix

Most ciniplexes in Manhattan (at least what I've noticed) are $11-$12.

The midnight tickets for "Sweeney" were $10.50 at the Boston Loews AMC Theatre... don't know if that's the typical movie price. Wouldn't doubt it.

$10.50 down here in Escondido. $11 - $12 up in LA.

I paid $186 for Beowulf, but I'm pretty sure the gorgeous Brazilian ticket man kept the money for himself. Also, he made me service him.

The prices are obscene. I try to catch stuff at BAM where as a member I pay $7.

It's about $10.25-$10.50 in San Francisco. Discount tickets all vary though, a lot of huge theatres here (Century, Metreon) offer a $6 bargain matinee M-F, and most offer student discounts that usually come out to be around $8-$9 at night.

It's nothing worth complaining about over here.

I don't know other theatres there, but im on fandango right now looking for midnihgt sweeneys, and apparently Court Street Stadium in brooklyn (a UA theatre) has $8 matinee's til 3 or 4 during the week and 10.75 for all other times. I may start going to brooklyn for movies... scratch that. AMC Magic Johnson in Harlem has the same prices, and its only 2 subway stops from me (1 if i walk to saint nick and take the a or d) in stead an hour and 15 minutes

I live in Texas and the tickets are usually $7.50 and $5 during matinee or with a student discount price. Wow, I thought we had it bad! I guess not.

My local cinema (Odeon, Southampton, England) is £7.40 a ticket ($15) then £3 each for popcorn and a drink.
Seeing Hairspray 5 times cost me a lot, I hope once I see Sweeney Todd I don't want to rush and see it again
