If you look at how the budget for a movie is spent, you’ll realize that at least half of that money goes into marketing, ads and other annoyances. It’s nuts.

As a producer who aims to make 2-10 million dollar genre flicks, I don’t see why ticket prices shouldn’t be scaled to budgets. Don’t want to pay 25 bucks to see Avengers 16? Pay 10 to see a low to mid budget crime or horror flick instead.

To keep profits up, theaters should bring back double features, intermissions, and sell popcorn with THC butter. Snack sales will explode.

Question from an European: What is that convenience fee? Which costs does it cover?

Nothing for the customer. It’s just convenient for the theater to charge more for the ticket.

Nothing, it’s just an extra charge so that the company can make more money.
