I just bought movie tickets with a $1.89 "fee" tacked on to the price. They didn't even say what the fee was for. Just "$11.75 + $1.89 Fee". There was zero findable information about what the fee was for and why it was that amount. They didn't even list a vague purpose like "Service Fee." It was just a fee. Why do this? Just say "$13.64" like a normal human being.

A big percentage of ticket price goes directly to the studio/distributor, perhaps the entire fee stays with the theater.
