For me, usually the cost wasn't worth it, but I know how bad people can be with spoilers. I felt like I HAD to see Endgame because I knew people would spill out too many implications that you'd have to be a dummy not to figure out. I had that happened with Infinity War before I got to see it for myself and it was... eh.

Surprisingly, I didn't see much spilled about Endgame, at least not until long after the movie had been out for a long time. People were definitely better about that.

But yeah, tickets to the movies are usually the reason why I just wait it out. And I don't even get snacks or drinks. Those are totally not worth it.
