Theatres need to stop, although its not really their fault. the damn media is taking all their ticket money, so really, the only way to get some kind of cash is to hike up the prices of consession and tickets. without this price raise, there would be no theatres, unfortunately. - jake, 14 years old.

The movie theater i work at charges $9 for an adult ticket, or $6.50 for senior, children, or matinee (before 6 pm) tickets. About 95% of that money is going back to whoever made the movie, and on top of that some of the bigger releases actually may charge several thousand dollars just to buy the film reel since we haven't upgraded to digital yet. All in all that means the concessions prices is paying for wages, utilities, product costs, any rollover from buying film reels, and anything else that costs money for a movie theater. Though people bitch and moan, no one is making you pay these prices, but yes they are necessary.
