How much do you pay for, tickets, drinks, popcorn etc? When the cheapest time to go and how much then?
Just trying to find out if my local is the norm or charging exorbitant prices.

And when I went to the cinema in Universal Orlando to see I-Robot on its opening night it cost about 15 dollars for the absolutely massive coke, and popcorn, of which they have hot melted butter to pour over it over with the straws.
No wonder they're fat, but who cares? It's soooo good.
And lots of legroom and no heads in the way too.
It's the same at the UGC.
The Showcase cinema over in Paisley though is godawful.
Expensive and everything's SMALL.

Usually when I go to the UGC in Glasgow I end up paying about 8-10 quid overall.
That's tickets, popcorn, coke and pick'n'mix included.

Ticket = £6.40 I think at night in standard seating (£7 in superior)
£4.50 during the day
Drinks/Food = I buy them in the Wilkinson shop a few meters away from my local cinema.

NUS prices for me, so I'm not sure about norm, but:
MK (home) - £4.20
York (uni) - £4.10
So, the same. That doesn't help at all. I believe it's about £6 both places for peak. Cineworld in MK, City Screen or Vue in York. In MK I have the option of going to the mighty mighty Easycinema and paying about 50p a ticket. But it's films that have been out for a month and it stinks. So no, Stelios, but thanks.

That's as maybe, but I live here: [URL]http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=DY10+3XA+(Timmargh)[/URL] - not my exact location, though.

@ M@rk
Can't speak for the Yanks but I know in Canada is some places it's £12, about £6. Can't be all that different in US? Although they have 40p fuel there and still complain..

It's a nice cinema but Madagascar wasn't worth £7, it's got to be the shortest film i've ever seen.

So this explains why Americans are more likely to walk out on a bad movie, you just dont want to waste your money with those prices.
So when you go to see these films do you generally feel you're getting your moneys worth? Are they showing you enough adverts? Was the floor sticky? Chairs comfortable with cupholder?
I think the most I would pay would be about £4, then I have a pound for a drink and sweets. I think most cinemas allow you to bring your own sweets and drinks. I dont go to the cinema much at all, maybe 3 times in the last 5 years. I was suprised that they sold american hotdogs and nachos at the Vue cinema I went to.
My local cinema is actually theatre, and they show movies quite awhile after the cinemas. I think they'll finally be showing Jurrasic Park this summer. Prices last time I checked were £7+ for an adult and you had to book a day in advance or 1 hour before the movie started. I havent been there to watch a movie for over a decade I imagine. Maybe it was The Mask.
