Okay, let’s address the elephant in the foyer: the prices. Yes, a ticket here costs roughly the same as a small European island. But hey, you’re not paying for the movie; you’re paying for the experience of forgetting your mortgage for two hours.
The staff are actually lovely, though. They’ll smile politely even when you ask for the seventh time if they do student discounts (spoiler: they do, so bring that student ID!). And if you’re clever, you’ll sign up for the Unlimited Card. It pays for itself faster than you can say “extra butter.”
