I don't know why everyone is ganging up on you. Movies and fast food have both skyrocketed in prices recently. It feels like for two people to see a movie shouldn't be $100, but maybe I'm the old man yelling at clouds.

Thats exactly my point, Its now a kind of "premium" activity. It cost one adult and one child who had fast food afterwards $100. If you're out on a date (not the kind of romantic situation where you want to be smugging in snacks) dinner and a movie is $100 per head if you eat somewhere half nice, that goes for a couple who have a night without the kids too and thats your primary market for these original films aimed at adults.
