I don't know how old you guys are but, I remember going to the movies as a child, by myself walking a few miles, and it was 35 cents to see a double feature with short subjects and/or cartoons. They were continuous performances so you didn't have to leave after the movies were over, you could stay and watch them again. In fact, back in the 1980's the first run multiplexes were charging around $4 for a movie but the second run movie theatres would charge 99 cents. Soon, all the second run theatres closed as not enough people were willing to pay 99 cents for a old movie. Now its $15 to see a 3-D movie.
