(Almost) everyone will agree that watching a movie inside a theatre is the best way to go. Going to see a movie, though, is not cheap. The average price of a movie ticket is $10, and in some places in LA you can pay $15-$20. Granted, you get some perks for paying the premium price, but perks or not, its still expensive! Here's a list of some theatres in Orange County and surrounding area that will show movies for under $3.00 . The movies have been out for a while (about 3 weeks or more), but it still beats going watching a DVD, getting it on Netflix, or even downloading it on VideoOnDemand!
