On Thursday 10/3 when I went to see the Joker movie, they charged me $3.50. It wasn’t a 3D or IMAX or 4DX showing, so there should not have been any surcharge for the Regal Unlimited members. The employees both told me that “some movies will have an additional charge.” I questioned them because of … Continue reading My $3.50 Controversy At Regal Cinema When Seeing Joker
