B wrote:Speaking of what people will pay, we just rented out a theater here in town on Christmas Day for $100 to watch it.
How many people will be joining you?
Me, one wife, and 3 kids.
So you’re looking at $20 a head. Are concessions included in your deal? Are they even offered?
Available, not included. Looks like we might also have to pay for a movie ticket. @#$%!!
Gather your friends and family for a cinema experience like no other. Relax in our oversized leather seats while you enjoy our freshly prepared dishes, signature cocktails, craft beers and premier wines.
- Starting at $99. Prices vary by location and date/time.
- Three-hour rental
- Maximum (20) guests
- Stream a movie from your favorite streaming app or watch one of our new releases (requires the purchase of a movie ticket for each guest)
- Tax and gratuity not included
Honestly this is a terrible deal. I'd maybe do it if I could bring a bunch of friends but five people? $100 plus food and tickets?
strange times, i think this a cool idea. it'll be a few hours of fun and normal for B and the family, and it'll feel worth it.
i have a movie buff friend; i may recommend to his wife she do this for him for xmas.

It's definitely a waste of money, but we're gonna see Wonder Woman in a movie theater on Christmas! So, fuck yeah!

Seriously it's a horrible idea B. It'd make much more sense to buy your kids some Lego sets that you can spend hours putting together that slowly over time get disassembled and thrown in a box with 10,000 other bricks making them essentially useless like every other parent on the planet. That's how you spend $100 for Christmas.

*north of $200 when factoring in food and actual tickets

Sorry, B, I'm not trying to rain on your parade. I hope you and your family have a great time. I miss the fuck out of movie theaters.

You're not raining on my parade, Jorge. I don't give a fuck what strangers on the internet think. If I did, this board would have driven me to suicide in 2003.

I mean I also live in a country with a ridiculously devalued currency where $200 is a buttload of money and more than some people make in a month, so my perspective is a bit skewed. I haven't been in the US in almost a year, but yeah, I guess I forgot $200 melts away pretty fast up there

I'd also say that we cancelled 2 vacation and 2 weeks of summer camp this past summer, so we've got a bit of money that we can use.
