RE: Mal was ganz anderes: Kinozeit! - „Amsterdam“ / Something completely different: Cinema time! - "Amsterdam"

It went on all night. I think it started at 7 pm. Between the parts there were long breaks with catering and talks. The event ended at 4 in the morning... The "Lord of the Rings" triple took even more time: as each part was overlong in itself...

I don't have the feeling that tickets have become cheaper due to the multiplexes. We paid 11 euros per ticket the other day - in Steem that would be about 66 at the current rate. It was a discounted day, as I wrote. Is that cheap? What do you have to pay?

Sort:  

No, I was talking about ticket rates in India. They have slashed ticket prices by half because there are no takers. I know the euro rate because I trade in Forex lol. Our rates in multiplexes were a minimum of $8, and single screens were $3.And then compare Germany with India and the living standards!

Now the multiplexes have cut them in half, but popcorn is still the same price. Haha, I am no longer going to the movies, so it makes no difference.

As I said, I used to go to the movies when I was in traveling job (as a sales engineer for Oelikon Fon or Oerlikon AM) I am sure you must have heard this name. It's in collaboration with Germany.

I actually know Oerlikon as a supplier for additive manufacturing, powder coating and things like that...

Of course I am aware of the price difference between Germany and India. But believe me, even here a cinema ticket is considered quite exorbitant. Especially since popcorn is even more expensive. We saw a portion for 13 euros... What I want to say is: culture should be affordable for everyone. It is not at the moment ;-((

You're right because Australia is even costlier where the movie ticket is minimum AU$15 and of course popcorn sales in bigger tumblers and they offer a combined price for ticket and popcorn lol. Yep, I agree, the world should be more considerate to adjust everyone.
