With babysitting costs added in, we would spend €100 to go to the cinema without snacks and not going anywhere afterwards with friends. I can't think of any film worth that when I can see it at home in comfort with no ads and no assholes.

    I’m really keen on going to the cinema, but I can definitely see childcare costs killing that off in future. My local cinema is fantastic so I don’t mind paying for a (slightly) pricier ticket, but childcare would multiply the cost several times.
