Teyonah Parris Responds to 'The Marvels' Box Office Fizzle: "You do not have to like something, but give it a chance by actually seeing it and forming your own opinion"
Actress Teyonah Parris, who plays Monica Rambeau in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, responds to 'The Marvels,' now on Disney+, underperforming at the box office. 'You do not have to like something, but give it a chance by actually seeing it and forming your own opinion,' she tells PEOPLE.
The theater near me closed during covid, but previously they allowed outside food within reason. I'd done sushi or fried chicken a couple times before they shot down for good.
18-22 before tax per ticket imax, 16 basic matinee. Doesn’t make a diff. it’s still expensive as all fuck, and the mouse has a 75% take thanks to them strong-arming theater chains.
Maybe if Disney lowered their take they could push more tickets and give theaters more room to breathe, but here we are.
Odeon sells "all you can watch" tickets for £14 a month. £17 for the "all you can watch" with premium seats updates.
These are only good if you are ghe kind of person who goes to the cinema allot. This isn't me. Even before covid I could count on 1 hand the number of times I went in a year.
Ironically the last 2 films I saw in a cinema was captain marvel and end game. Cap being a big reason why I was already indifferent.
Then go to a closer cinema. I was giving a real example of a cinema that you can look up the price of a ticket to see a film and it's substantially less than your number.
Snacks? Bags of Haribo are £1 from Tesco's (or Sainsbury's or Lidl own brand are even cheaper).
I have many reasons that I don't bother with the cinema, and I still think that £14 is on the high side, but your numbers were just silly.
Like I said my nearest cinema is 18.50 a ticket. Ignoring the snacks that's still a bawhair shy of 40 quid. And like I said I ain't paying yhat for anything less than a film I'm hyped about beforehand.
And again it's kinda besides the point
Edit you know what sod it.
Their snacks are 13.50 for a box of popcorn and a drink. My wife and I split the popcorn and get an extra drink.
