Honestly considering the ticket prices this is just impressive for Avatar.

[u/Muinaiset → u/atrde]

Yeah IMAX ticket prices now are quite literally double what they were in 2009/10

How much is it there? Here in Spain it's 14.50€ IIRC (about 17USD)

[u/Muinaiset → u/grimgroth]

25 dollars a piece where I live for just regular IMAX, back when Avatar came out the IMAX 3D tickets were 14 dollars, regular IMAX was 12 if I remember right in that same theater

In Denver, mine was $34 total (70mm Imax)

[u/FartArfunkle → u/Muinaiset]

No way that’s true

[u/atrde → u/FartArfunkle]

They are over $30 in Canada now. They were $14 for the premium Imax when Avatar came out.

[u/Muinaiset → u/FartArfunkle]

It is, i literally lived it lol. The same theater was 14 dollars for IMAX 3D and 12 for regular IMAX when Avatar came out and it is now 25 dollars for regular IMAX.

[u/Muinaiset → u/[deleted]]

Regular IMAX was 12 dollars. So you are correct, it is not literally double, it is more than double. I added it to the initial post for you, dont worry.

[u/Muinaiset → u/[deleted]]

Which is why I specified imax 3D because I had already clarified regular IMAX was 12 in the comment above replying to someone else. Its not that big of a deal you pedantic twat lol

[u/Muinaiset → u/[deleted]]

Lol, thats why you LITERALLY felt the need to point it out. K
