$22 ticket, $30 with taxes and a “service charge” for an electronic ticket. Overpriced food. Noisy and phone reading assholes in the theater.
Sorry your market model relied on DVD sales for a second wave of revenue. Be more creative, stop the overpriced superhero garbage, and find a way to generate revenue that isn’t price gouging.

I'd rather just buy the download from the Apple store - none of that BS and I still (usually) get something before it hits the streaming services (although the days appear to be numbered on this). I watch like 2 movies a year so I can afford the luxury.

Same, or wait for it to hit a subscription. I go to the theater twice a year. I used to go a dozen or more times annually.

I just pilfer that shit onto a thumbdrive, buy hotdogs, burgers, etc and call it a day. much cheaper and more enjoyable for me.
we used have a small local theater that offered $2 tuesdays but place got shut down after being there 20+ years. last time I saw a movie in theaters was to see "Killers of the Flower Moon". had ramen shortly before watching so I was already full by showtime.
