$15.50 for a movie ticket?

 

I think we pay $15 or so here.  What was funny was seeing ticket prices in Edinburgh for 15 GBP, hah.

Is that IMAX or something? Last time I went I think I paid about $8 for a ticket and it was a nice theater with comfy leather recliner seats. That was 2 years ago. Prices  couldn't have risen that much. Is North Carolina just that much cheaper?

Yep, it's also on the tickets.  I thought they're actually a good price as IMAX can run about 20 bucks for an adult ticket here

^ So it does, I don't know how I missed that. Out of curiosity, is IMAX worth the mark up? Is it a life altering experience? Will it ruin standard movie viewing for me forever?

For something like Star Wars or Avatar or another big spectacle movie I'd recommend trying it at least once

It's pretty neat, but it depends on the film. I'd actually suggest giving it a try for a Nolan film, given his films are never 3D, HFR or any other such gimmick and he likewise shoots a bunch of them on 70mm IMAX film cameras. It also helps that aside from the odd film here or there his films are pretty much the best-looking blockbusters out this decade.

Only film where I felt it added something was MI : Ghost Protocol, when he's on the Burj.

For me it was Avatar and I'm not even a fan of that movie

The words freedom and liberty, are diminishing the true meaning of the abstract concept they try to explain. The true nature of freedom is such, that the human mind is unable to comprehend it, so we make a cage and name it freedom in order to give a tangible meaning to what we dont understand, just as our ancestors made gods like Thor or Zeus to explain thunder.

What? You thought it was a quote from some well known wise guy from the past?

 

Stupidity leads to willful ignorance - willful ignorance leads to hope - hope leads to sex - and that is how a new generation of fools is born!


We are hardcore role players... When we go to bed with a girl, we roll a D20 to see if we hit the target and a D6 to see how much penetration damage we did.
