So apparently people who are just in some huge mad rush to see The Dark Knight are willing to shell out up to $150 a ticket just to get in this weekend. That’s just plain dumb. It’s like people have convinced themselves that if they don’t go see The Dark Knight THIS WEEKEND, the coolness of it will somehow diminish over time.
Don’t get me wrong, I would like to see it, but I can’t think of a single movie I would be willing to pay that kind of money for, KNOWING that within a matter of days, after all the hype dies down, I could see it for $7.50.
I’m really bad at math, but that’s just easy economics right there, people. It’s like the iPhone. When it first came out, impossibly impatient people stood in line for days and spent crazy amounts of money to have it FIRST FIRST FIRST, while their friends stood back and laughed at them and paid like 4 times less than they did just a few short weeks later.
DUMB.
