Had nothing to so I caught Horrible Bosses, Captain America, and Planet of the Apes. All for the $7.50 matinee price. Good times. I think the manager was on to me by the end, might bring disguises next time

Enjoyed all 3. Bosses picked up in the second half, Captain America was a lot of fun.

Loved 'Apes'. Thought it was extremely well done.

Am I reading this correctly...you paid for one movie, then snuck into the others?

What an a-hole (if so).

I guess so. He used "all". If he paid for them individually, he would have used "each".

He could have watched (and paid) for all the movies at that price though...matinee goes till like 6:00 or so. 11:00, 1:30, 3:30, 5:40...all kinds of ways he could've paid for all three at the matinee price.

But the whole "the manager was onto me...I'll bring a disguise" thing is what makes me think it.

One of my son's friends and his dad used to do this all the time and bring my son along. Thankfully they were classy enough to pay for each movie though.

I use to pull triple features all the time in high school years - during the summer at least. Almost saw a 4th movie out one day but I came home and watched Terminator 2 on television instead.

A low point in my unemployed years...

Went to the Broadmoor Dollar Theater, paid a buck to see one movie, then walked over and watched the other.

Yeah I'm an a-hole. Movie theaters are one of the biggest rip offs in the world. They are the assholes. If I'm gonna spend $20($5 for a medium coke yesterday) minimum on ticket and concessions, I'm gonna get my moneys worth and see more than one movie.

I've never understood why people bitch about movie prices. Do you know how I don't spend $20 at the movies? I don't buy their sugarwater and cancer-coated popcorn. no law says you have to spend money.

Meh my only beef is that you now spend 13 bucks to watch a movie once, and they charge 14 bucks to own it on DVD and watch it whenever

ticket prices are way too much
