I don't know if this is just our AMC, or if it is the same with all theaters. I can no longer say how much a movie costs, because it seems like the price for a movie ticket is always fluctuating. We went to "Paranoia" yesterday at $8 a ticket. This was not full price. Earlier was $6 and later was 10.75. Of course the 3D movies are more. Even the children's ticket do this same kind of bouncing around routine. I saw a 10 p.m. movie that was a bit older for only three dollars. It is getting confusing. I also think that the day of the week also effects the pricing structure. My wife also has an AMC card, where every so often she gets a free movie ticket. I don't know how it works.
The thing that is consistent is the high price of concessions. We spent $16 for the movie, and then $14 for the concessions, popcorn and a drink to share. It adds up fast. My thought, the varying ticket prices is to keep butts in the seats so they have a larger market of people having to pay their high prices for snacks. It's a racket.
