Lucas: "Going to the movies is going to cost you 50 bucks, maybe 100.
Maybe 150."

Uh, no. There hasn't been a movie made that I would pay $50 in
first-run, never mind $150. And since the studios are raking off
80-90% of ticket prices for the first week or two of the blockbuster
pics (a George Lucas innovation!) that $50 ticket doesn't really leave
the theater much cash for these luxury upgrades he proposes.
