I love watching movies and I think cinema's ticket is too expensive to allow me and my family going to cinema many times in a month. I prefer to rent a DVD and watching it at home with my family because it's less expensive. If cinema ticket was more suitable I think many people could go more often to the cinema. What do you think about?

Yes i think movie tickets are expensive already. renting is much more economical and can even watch with the whole family at the comfort of your own home. downside is that you have to wait for the dvd release of new movies.

I do think the cinema ticket price is too expensive, but I still go, just not to every movie I see. Now, due to the expensive price I have to limit myself. Also the food at the cinema is far too expensive, howerver I normally think 'o well, im allready spending all my money on the ticket, why not just spend even more' lol and so I end up buying the tubs of minstrels. yummy!!

I do n't go for a single time to cinema in a month. I dislike to go to cinemas but it is said that we enjoy watching movies in real only in the cinemas. As i told u that i do n't go to cinemas so as well i never bought any cinema ticket yet in my life and also do n't have any idea about it.

With how services like netflix are only $6 a month and you can get as many DVD's as you want if you return yours quickly, I think movie theaters will either have to lower prices or you will see more go out of business.

Movie tickets could be only $1 and I still wouldnt go in all honesty...its not just the price that stops me from goin, its also the comfort..I like being able to pause the movie if I have to pee or want to go make a snack etc...I like putting my feet up, kickin back and enjoying the show...I dont want to have to deal with ppl talking, throwing popcorn, interupt me by having to get to their seat (or me interupting others by trying to get back to my seat)....Wtaching movies at home is far more enjoyable on all levels

Yeah movie tickets here in the US are getting ridiculous if you want to go at night. It's like 9 dollars. I usually like to just buy cheap dvds which you can always find on ebay, the prices are always dropping OR I go to the drive in. They are new releases, just like in the theater and it's only 6 dollar per person for TWO movies. Great deal!

ticket - ticket
I love watching them too and agree about the prices. Our theatre recently went up another dollar. It's really bad not being able to see many because of the prices like that. Movies are so much fun.

Movies are very expensive where I am. Especially when I would have to buy 4 tickets to go. I only go when I am visiting my parents. Their tickets are $1.50 no matter what time they go.

I rarely go to the cinema. The last time I watched a movie in a cinema was months ago. Though I don't think that movie tickets are overpriced, I prefer to buy DVD's and watch at home because I can understand the movie better. There are no disturbances like ringing phones, people in front of you who stand to go to the restroom, and people looking for seats to occupy. Aside from that, I can watch the movie anytime I want to because I own a copy of it.

We usually only go once every 2-3 months because of the cost of the tickets. It is a nice treat once in awhile though.

i agree. it's too expensive to go and watch movies in cinemas. it's better to stay at home and watch movies with your family on DVDs or VCDs.

Watching a movie is one of the best entertainment I know after sports.I go to the movies once or twice in a month but only if the movie is worth watching.No the tickets in my city are not as expensive that is a different thing that they are not worth that price.
