I think they are still figuring out the whole price point thing, but at $15-20, they'd probably sell over twice as many rentals and increase profits.

I have zero interest in it at $30.00, I mean if I had a sig other or kids, it makes sense. But the first run movies on PPV are all in that 25 or 30 dollar range, so I'm not spending a bunch of money on movies right now.


I think this is a matter that when the movie came out and the freeze was lifted on the reviews the movie was savaged, and listening to some people here, and some friends, rightfully so. So you're always going to get that opening day surge, but those viewers killed the movie on review or social media, and everyone else looked at the costs and went narf.
