Sounds like fun!
All we have in our city is one theater. It's a multiplex which means that you are herded into these tiny rooms with small screens. The seats are close and uncomfortable. Who needs that when they charge $15.00 for a ticket and forget food and drink!

Yeah prices are outrageous nowadays even the food. Most theaters here converted to reclining chairs so they only hold half the number of people they used to. It feels more luxurious so you feel like you get your money’s worth.

Sounds wonderful!
On second thought, at my age, in such comfort in the dark, I'd fall asleep and miss the movie!

Hell no. I hate going to theatres to watch movies anyway.
I'd go to see the ballet, but to watch a movie where the volume is at 500 decibels, squinting in darkness with tons of people yapping their pie holes or kicking the back of my seat, talking on their phone. Oh please. Pppttthh.

I'm with ya, but I still do go to the cinemas at least twice a month. Readings have Titan Luxe sessions, but need 30mins to drive there. Recliner seats which are very cosy and spacious with a decent sized screen, but the Dolby Atmos can be loud.
I love the ballet.

If this is for a meet n greet and an autograph and will prove once and for all that he is real, sure, why not?
As long as he throws in a ride in his Batmobile or Batcopter.

I wouldn't pay 0.49cents to see it.
Around $20.00 would be the average ticket price in Australia depending on where one chooses to go to see it and what kind of cinema experience. Event chain are the rip-off merchants and an adult for a normal session is around $22.00.

Our cinema has Tuesday and Wednesday showings for $5.
My dad is frugal and only goes to the show on Tuesday or Wednesday.
However, I wanted to see The Batman badly, being hyped for this years and all, so I forked out the money for opening day. I figure if it's a movie you really want to see, and it only happens biannually, then $40 for 2 tickets biannually isn't going to break you.
But of course, it'd wouldn't be wise to do this with every movie. But special occasions, and special movies, yes.
Never lose your desire.
