Hi, it\u2019s Mizuki again!<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I love going to movies in the States. <\/span><\/p>\n

I often go to movies in Japan as well, but there are some big differences of movie theater in the U.S. and in Japan.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

First, a ticket price varies among movie theaters in the U.S. In Japan, most of movie theaters sell ticket at the same price. <\/span><\/p>\n

In U.S., the price varies depends on each movie theater. <\/span><\/p>\n

For example,\u00a0 a small theater in Wisconsin is 3 dollars, one in a bigger city is 8~10 dollars. In Syracuse, it costed 11.50 dollars. <\/span><\/p>\n

The price is also different depends on date and time of the cinema in this theater.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Another big difference is that you don\u2019t need to reserve a seat in advance. (You cannot reserve seats at all.) <\/span><\/p>\n

When you buy a ticket, you just tell the staff what movie and what time you want to watch. <\/span><\/p>\n

You can select your seat after you enter a theater. <\/span><\/p>\n

First come first serve. <\/span><\/p>\n

Some theaters have no stairs inside, so even a wheelchair user can have more choices of seats. <\/span><\/p>\n

The movie theater in Syracuse has stairs, but I found the seat with wheelchair marks is just in the center, where everyone wants to sit. <\/span><\/p>\n

Yeah, it is the best location in the room!<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Me: \u201cI can\u2019t believe this! Usually wheelchair seats are 1st line, right before the screen in Japan\u2026\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

American friend: \u201cI think wheelchair seats are located in the middle and center inmost of the movie theaters that I know. No one wants to watch movie in the front. hahaha.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In Japan, we need to decide the seat in advance and buy a ticket. <\/span><\/p>\n

Usually wheelchair seats are located in the very front (right before a screen), or in the middle but next to aisles near exit. <\/span><\/p>\n

I think those seats are easy to access but never good to enjoy a movie with! <\/span><\/p>\n

I wonder if the location of those wheelchair seats in Japan are put on those locations so that the customers in wheelchair will not to \u201cdisturb other customers\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I often reserve a regular seat where has a little better view but is still near a wheelchair seat, which is at bad locations. <\/span><\/p>\n

I can do this because I can go up stairs by myself. <\/span><\/p>\n

But for wheelchair users who can\u2019t do this, they have no choice. <\/span><\/p>\n

They just need to watch from a unreasonable location. <\/span><\/p>\n

Everyone wants to watch their favorite movies from their favorite locations. <\/span><\/p>\n

Today I realized that Japanese movie theaters should give more choices for customers in wheelchair.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
