now. Similar to how BC Ferries has priced a casual trip over to the island high enough to prevent travel, it's no longer a spur of the moment decision to go to a movie theatre.One practically needs to apply for a bank loan prior to ponying up to the ticket counter. Today, the charge to see the final installment of Harry Potter in 3D cost $31. I think most motion pictures are in 3D now just because they can tack on a few more bucks. I sort of feel bad for a young guy wanting to pay for his date. These fees would definitely seem like a king's ransom to a student, even if he'd had a really good summer job.
Thankfully, neither of us are big fans of the concession stand. Euk. Sometimes the smell alone of the hydrogenated goo poured over the popcorn is enough to turn my stomach. Those overpriced food and drink items would have sent the total cost of an afternoon at the movies into orbit!
