How much was a ticket?
They seem to have dropped in price this way?
Was about £12 a ticket but it’s down to around £8 now

We saw Terminator 6 on Saturday in Leeds Vue and it was only a fiver each, we took our own crisps and a drink. Brilliant film I thought, don't know why there are so many haters.

Down saauf...at a nice Everyman cinema.

Two tickets for Joker, a bottle of beer and bottle of water and no change out of forty quid.

A real waste of money for me though, always fall asleep when it gets dark and warm.

Think the last film I saw at the cinemas was Forrest Gump. But they know how to charge for snacks and drinks.

Saw the new Terminator film last week as a download. Really enjoyed it.

Locally to me a rip off - go to a city then half the price £3.95 for a pack of minsterels £2 for a bottle of water they should wearing a mask ha ha ! 🤑

We don’t go unless we have a 2 for 1. Normally it’s an odean. About £7.00 for the 2 of us.

I cracked open one of my own drinks at Everyman once, a Bulmers and I had it taken off me. We paid a tenner each for two 'pizzas' and I swear to god and old rubber doormat would have been warmer and tastier.

I do like my own space. But you cannot beat a good film. Which team do you follow?

Vue cinemas (and possibly others) actually say on their websites you can take your own drinks/snacks. Its an expensive doo it you take a few kids and don't.

I can see why their prices are so high, big old buildings generally and they are empty for most of the week.

Weird that the big chains routinely charge a fortune and yet independents seem to provide better film experience, and cheaper/nicer snacks. Thinking of the Rex in Elland, the Electric Palace in Harwich, the Studio in Coleford, and the Palace in Cinderford. Only one of these is run by a charity: the others are businesses at around half the price of the big chains.
