What theater is that at? Sounds like a mega chain like AMC or Regal. The local indie theater we go to in one of the 5 largest American cities has never been over $15 per ticket and adding popcorn and a drink is maybe $10 more on top.

Do they get first-run releases? Around here AMC has some sort of exclusive on that. And their theatres are disgusting. Sticky floors, dirty seats, just gross.

I haven't been to a movie in a theater in at least 10 years.

If you are expressing your judgement based on experiences from more than 10 years ago you are not really contributing to the discussion.

Admittedly, it was a while ago. But from what I've heard from friends who've been recently, it's no better, possibly worse.
