Odeon cinemas add £1 charge for blockbuster movie tickets
Posted: Wed Nov 19, 2014 11:56 pmOdeon cinemas are charging more to see high-profile films.
An extra £1 has been added to tickets for Interstellar, and the same will be done for The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1 and The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies.
As reported by Film Divide, Odeon has released the following statement in relation to the policy: "So we can give our guests the very best experience and keep it that way, we operate a dynamic pricing policy so that we can offer some excellent discounts during our quiet periods.
"As Interstellar is a blockbuster film and has a high popularity rating, the premium price is applied. However this extra £1 will be dropped from the films after a few weeks of release."
Interstellar has held on to the number one spot at the UK box office for a second week.
The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1 will open in UK cinemas tomorrow (November 20) and in the US on Friday (November 21).
