Post by: footemama on October 29, 2011, 08:23:56 pm: I have a hard time justifying the money spent to see a movie. Especially since if I take my son it's the movie plus the drinks and the popcorn. Usually I take him once a year when a friend is down with her kids over the holidays but new baby this year so she won't be coming. Not sure if I will go ahead and take him to the movies or not maybe if they have something really interesting. We saw How to Train Your Dragon and Megamind.

- The DVD will probably have the scenes that were removed for its theater run.
- You pay for a DVD once and can watch it many times.
- You can choose when to watch them.

It wasn't as good as I thought it would be. My husband had been given free tickets to a show so we went to that. I suppose at that price I wasn't disappointed.

Also if there is a movie that looks good on the big screen I am down to watch that. As for food at the theater, if i do not want to fill up on popcorn and candy i just eat a big meal before i go.

Post by: andzigallery on October 30, 2011, 02:49:06 am: The last time I went to the movies was in July before I went to Greece. I saw lots of action movies because of course, I took my nine-year old with me to the movies. I go to movies when I can get a good discount or the movie gift cards. Hey, why doesn't FC have movie gift cards as one of their offers. People would actually use those!

Post by: jzmom on October 30, 2011, 03:50:19 pm: I think I go to the movies about once a year. I usually wait until Walmart has them for $5 and I will buy them. I would rather be at
home where I can be comfortable. Snacks, drinks and bathroom close by. I also can cry in private if it is a tear jerker.

Post by: ladavia89 on October 30, 2011, 04:11:38 pm: There is a theater here that already has discounted prices plus does buy one get one on Tuesdays. I love $2.50 movies with decently priced food

I still go time to time. But not regularly any more because of the price goes up like crazy. And it's too expensive for us go each time. Cost us almost $200 for each time.
