AMC Theatres just hiked ticket prices up to $25 for some showtimes, and your movie night budget is about to get wrecked. Starting this week, the chain is rolling out "dynamic pricing" that charges more for peak hours and blockbuster releases, meaning a Friday night date could cost you double what you paid last month. Consumer advocates warn this could become the new normal across all chains, so skip the popcorn and check local indie theaters to save your wallet from this inflation trap.
