I do like the outside experience though.

I recently went to "Ford vs Ferrari" (worth the big screen) with Kach. First in a while.
The theater was hidden in the back of a big mall with a pothole drive.
$7 for matinee. They wanted $15 bucks for popcorn and soda and $8 candy. Yikes.

Had to pick assigned unknown seats while buying tickets.
(I think they do an electronic head count while they scan the audience for cameras.)
Seats were electric recline and cushy but the first set didn't work. Covered by thin faux leather they would probably not last long.

Movies are nice but the theater pricing makes them an occasional event these days.
