Overpriced 3D Movie Tickets About to Get More Overpriced
If you didn’t feel like you were getting bent over by movie theaters enough with the higher cost of 3D movies, get ready to grab your ankles.
Regal Entertainment Group, Cinemark Holdings and AMC Entertainment will push 3D ticket prices higher, starting this weekend. Hopefully this will burst the 3D gimmick bubble and we can get back to viewing movies without the migraines.
According to the Wall Street Journal:
At one Seattle multiplex, adult admission is rising to $11 from $10 for a conventional film, to $15 from $13.50 for a regular 3-D showing and to $17 from $15 for Imax 3-D.
So, not only are 3D prices being hiked up, IMAX prices will sky rocket also. All this solidifies my intent on buying the largest LED-LCD TV I can find and enjoy standard non-migraine inducing flicks at home without feeling violated by the Movie Industry.
