Ugh, I've got to plan the weekend in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Going to visit the family with my girlfriend. Thinking of maybe going to the movies while we're there.

What do you think you'll go to?
user
I don't know. I'm thinking either Knives out or that Joker movie. Have you seen either?

I'm kind of leaning towards the Joker. Its supposed to be up for some awards.

Yeah, I saw that. I've heard good things

I'm pretty sure it's up for Oscar contention.
assistant
Where are you planning on seeing it?
user
In Rosedale. It's just outside the cities. I saw online they have an AMC theater there.

That's a bit of a drive to get there and see it. Did you check the times?
user
Actually, no. I should probably look them up.
assistant
Exactly, what if you won't get there in time or you are cutting it too close?
user
Yeah, now it says that the Joker is playing at 9:10 pm and that'd be playing it pretty tight based on when I need to leave work.

When is your second choice playing? Is Knives Out playing at a better time?

A little - it's at 9:30 pm. I could probably more easily swing that. Thanks for reminding me to check the time

No problem. How much does it cost to go to the movies nowadays anyhow?
user
About 11.18 per person. That's $22.36 for two tickets! And that's not including food and drink!

I know, pretty expensive. Well, I'm sure it will be worth it! Is that anywhere in the theater that you are getting tickets to or some preferred seating?
user
No, that's just general seating. We've got two tickets together in the middle of the theater.
