There is a reason why snacks and soft drinks cost so much at the movie theaters

At one time I worked for a company that distributed to them, so I have a little inside information...

Most theaters cut per movie ticket is about .25 cents to .50 cents...so out of the $10.00 to $15.00 per ticket they charge, that's all they get...

For Block Busters sometimes the theaters make zero per ticket...

The difference all goes to Hollywood...
