   Most theaters have a bargain day where they movie is like $5.00.  The local   
   megaplex is Tuesday.  IMAX is not part of the bargain in theathers that have   
   them.   
      
   And many are getting tough on people who use their devices during the show.   
   Also even though they are not bargain days many times the first show of the   
   day and some time the the ones up to Noon are considered bargains to get the   
   people in early.  I have been to blockbusters that after a week or so have   
   very few people at the first show, 10 AM, many time seniors who take advantage   
   of this.  A few times I have been the only one in a 300 seat theater.  Even if   
   no one is there they stil have to play the moive, which many times is   
   computer controlled so it plays no matter what.   
      
   Watch the paper for bargain days and try the first show, you may in for a   
   nice surprise.
