if you don't mind waiting a little bit for a movie to come out, the academy 6 theater in pasadena is the way to go. tickets are regularly $3, but drop down to $2 for a matinée. hotdogs are only $1 so don't feel bad about coming hungry. the best deal is probably wednesday nights where rumor has it you can get two tickets, two drinks, and two orders of popcorn for $10. not too shabby!
