35 Dollar Movie Ticket
”Variety” Reports:
“The partners will spend $200 million to build 50 theaters nationwide over the next five years, with the first two venues set to open in South Barrington, a suburb of Chicago, and the Seattle suburb of Redmond in October. Others are planned for Fairview, Texas, near Dallas-Fort Worth, and Scottsdale, Ariz. Each complex will sport theaters featuring 40 reclining armchair seats with footrests, digital projection and the capability to screen 2-D and 3-D movies, as well as a lounge and bar serving cocktails and appetizers, a concierge service and valet parking. But the circuit will especially push its culinary offerings — made-to-order meals like sushi and other theater-friendly foods from on-site chefs (a service button at each seat calls a waiter). Moviegoers will have to pay extra for any food they order,”
You know this sounds really cool but all I can really say is…Who cares. I mean I love going to movie theatres with a real audience. I don’t want to sit and watch “21″ in luxury. I will admit this would be cool for special occations. Like I would love to have a whole bunch of friends go to one of these and we all get together to watch “Indy” but in the end I just really don’t care about a luxury theater.- Movie Rat Mike
I would love this once in a while. If you think about it, the dinner makes it a solid deal. As long as the dinner is either before or after the film. During would suck.
The main selling idea for me is a QUIET theater. The less distractions, IMO, the better.
