Just for poops and giggles we went to see the Despicable Me 3 movie last week. Haven’t been to a theater in years.

Cost: $54.

Just not worth it.

I enjoy the Despicable Me animated features...just not at that price.

Senior tickets here in Florida cost $7 at our local B&B Theater. Skip the popcorn and it’s a cheap outing. My only complaints are that there are no subtitles and too few movies worth seeing. I can’t tell you how many times we’ve watched a preview and simultaneously said “loser” or “rental”. That said, I firmly believe movie theaters are on the way out. The old Hollywood system of having theaters bid for movies just doesn’t work when movies go to DVD so quickly and you can enjoy it on a big screen tv with a super sound system. I suspect that pirating has forced studios to release movies on DVD quickly. Factor in movie star political opinions and you ask yourself if you really want to financially support that person.
