There are varying prices on movie theatres and just wondering what range they run.


In Celina they are all 5 dollars for all 5 screens of first run movies. they used to be 7 bucks and on tuesday they ran a 5 dollar special, and at all times they had 5 dollar tickets for students and military.

It is an OK theatre....doesnt have theatre seating but hard to beat 5 bucks!

Movies are too expensive. It's like $10 a movie around here. I just watch them for free online.

$11.50/$9.50 for matinee. Had to look it up, I haven't been to a theater to watch a movie in over a year. Last one I saw was True Grit, at a second-run brew and view.

It's 4 bones all day on Tuesday at one of the theaters I frequent. I caught Contraband at 4:50 the other day at another theater for 5.50. I think the max price at both theaters is like 8 or 9 bucks. One of them is a Cinemark and it's a pretty good theater. The other is Premiere and it's pretty decent.

I go to alliance as well. It's $4.75 regularly. I think 3D is like $7.50. Pretty good for the price.

I haven't been to a movie theater since 2008, and the time before that was 2004.

Hope this helps.

About 10 bones. Im guessing the more expensive places are the more populated areas. 15 would almost have to be a top 25 market, maybe top 15. I know I paid 17$ in Chicago for The Dark Knight.
