I haven't gone out to a movie in quite a while. Superbad was the last one I got out to, mostly because of lack of money. I think that $8.50 to go to a movie is bush league. What ever happened to the good old dollar theater in Hopkins, I think they're still showing Shrek III. When I was younger that place was sweet and they were the first place to have a mini arcade. Now that they stopped playing present movies your only option is to break the bank. Could a 2 hour movie really be worth 15 bucks after nachos and a slushie? Granted that the ICEE slushies are baller, I would have to say no. If I really want to see a movie and get cheep about it I'll go with my brother and have my mom pay for it. The rule of keeping the change is key. During baseball season I make $15 a night from pocketing the change from my mom. This trade of mine is well known in my family and often is used in a joking manner, but my mom still dishes out the dough. It's almost like my mom pays me to show up and my younger brothers game for an hour. This past summer however I didn't make it to nearly any games because of my own. I guess if I'm going to go to more movies I'm going to have to sit through more matinee T-ball games.
