Two weeks ago, I took my daughters to watch The Croods at the movie theater near by our house. I found out I still had the gift card for Regal Movie Theater that I got from Christmas time, and plus I had the coupon too. Nowadays, when everything get so expensive, usually I try not to go to movie theater. I rather just wait until it's available on redbox or dvd. So when the last time you guys been in movie theater?

The last time I was at the movie theater was before my son was born, I believe I was pretty close to the end of my pregnancy with him. So it's been probably close to 3 years. I used to go on a regular basis, but now I have him and he wouldn't sit through a movie very well yet. Our theater isn't very expensive though it's like $3.50 a person for a matinee for new movies, which is pretty good. I have a hard time getting a sitter to go. I am debating on taking him to a movie to see if he will sit through it. He has been doing better with sitting and watching movies. He has sat and watched full movies at home, but I don't know how he would do in a theater yet. He is almost 2 and a half so I'd be pushing it lol.

I remember those days. First time my daughter went to movie theater when she was 3 years old. I have no hesitation too if it only cost $3.50. In my area for matinee double the price per person.

We are the only place in my area that has a theater that cheap. Everywhere else the prices are much higher. We don't have stadium seating or anything fancy. I have also heard our mall will give you a voucher for another movie if you have a kid that wont sit through it. I think our theater is the only thing keeping our mall open too. They can't really afford to raise the prices at our theater, because everyone would stop going to it. If they charged what all the other area theaters do they'd lose business because they aren't as nice as the surrounding areas theaters.

Last time I was at cinema was about month and half ago. I went to see Silver Linings Playbook with my boyfriend. I donĀ“t know how much it costs in US, but cinema is pretty expensive in Slovakia as well. But cinema in my hometown has pretty good offer every Wednesday. Every one with T-Mobile can buy a sms coupone an get one ticket for free.

It's expensive too in here. Some website offer some movie deals, but still expensive than it was back then.

I haven't watched a movie in a theater for about seven years. The local theater closed down about two years now.

The last movie I saw at the cinema was the remake of Ana Kareninna. I have a couple of friends who always invite me so I go around once a month if there is a good movie. This time it was for free for them. The movie didno start on time as there was a technical problem and at the end of the movie, they gave us our tickes back. I gave it to my friends telling them that it would do for another outing.

For the last 5 years I only go to movie theater for kids' movies. I hold off going there for my own. I found out kids movie always entertaining anyway, and worth the ticket price.

Sadly the availability of online options now means that I hardly go to the theatres. I think so far this year I have yet to set foot in a cinema so I can't even remember my last visit to the cinema. Rather sad really.

The convenient to get it online can be advantage. But it does make us stay inside more often than going out.

Well it's a lot longer than two weeks ago for me. Must be about 5 years ago i went to see Iron Man at the cinema. I think price is a huge factor and if i were to go again which i'm sure i will it will be to see something with great special effects.

A simple 'going to movie theater' become a luxury. I agree make sure the movie worth watching when you decide to go to see one.

I believe the last movie I saw in the movie theater is "He's just not that into you." It's been a long time. First of all, I don't think there are many movies out that's good enough for me to get in my car, drive to the theater, pay the price of the ticket and then, drive home. And it's not that I can wait a few months and rent it for much less, it's that I can see it for free on a web site called Veetle. I can't choose what movie I want, it's like having pay channels except you don't pay. And many times there are no schedules. You have to sort of figure out what movie oy're watching though most have the name of the movie you're watching in small letters. I saw man on a ledge, the three stooges movie and Zero dark thirty. The 3 stooges movie I saw the same week it was released to the theaters and on the the day it was released to all the theaters, I had watched Zero dark thirty twice.

Well, maybe around December or November, back then when I'm still a high school student. Also don't remember the last movie a watch in theater. Now it feels a little too expensive because I must manage daily expense since I live alone outside my home town as a college student. I think there are more important things to spend my money on rather than watching at theater..

I was totally against it, but my boyfriend talked me into seeing the remake of Texas Chainsaw Massacre. I only wanted to see it because Trey Songz was in it but had a problem with the fact that they tampered with a classic..but all in all, it was an okay movie and I had fun at the theater..

I just saw a movie last week(G.I. Joe Retaliation). I only watch action movies in theaters as the big screens enhance the experience. I don't find other movies worth watching in theaters except the ones having my favorite stars.

A month or two. I've watched Breaking Dawn with my boyfriend. He doesn't really want fiction movies but when we've watched that he was watching very serious.
