I am 18 and till this day I have never been inside a cinema, its not like i dont watch movies. I watch movies on amazon prime, but recently I was thinking of watching oppenheimer(sorry if theres a spell mistake), should I go to cinema (Its not about the movie its about should i try going to a cinema) ?? And if yes then should i go alone or with a group of friends ???

    How expensive is it where you are? I’m not in the west and cinema costs me USD 5-10. Which means I can easily watch one or two every week

      I used to have a subscription for about ~17 a month, all 2D shows were free, 3D cost a couple bucks and discounts on IMAX. Also discounts on food.

        AMC A List is good if you want to see at least two movies a month. A group of friends and I all have it and we see movie once a week.

      I feel similar and here I pay about 11€ for a movie, 14€ if it’s 3D (which most available viewings are) and any popcorn and drink is also overpriced. Though I would say I could afford it technically, the bigger factor for me avoiding the cinema is the other people. I had too many shitty experiences in my life with people hitting my seat, being loud, being ill and coughing the whole movie, stinky people, etc

      Where I live it’s not crazy expensive, but it’s definitely not throwaway money, though if the price is a consideration, it’s probably better image and sound quality than what you can get at home (assuming it’s a nice one, I have one in my city that has awful audio)
