Steve's barking at an economic movie policy

It has come to my attention that the local AMC movie theater has done away with it's Tuesday senior discounts and early prior to 12 o'clock discount showings.
This being there right under the free market system I have no beef with that move,
This being the free market economy as for myself a person on a budget I want to thank AMC for saving me money, as I and my wife can no longer afford on our budget to go to the movies twice a month and spend for admission 16 to 20 dollars on snacks.
Now harkening back to my school days and being taught about fixed cost, electricity cost the same, the salary of the ticket sellers stays the same, rent stays the same the question being, will the increase in movie prices make up for the lost business from seniors and couples with children who go to the movies before 12 on the weekends?
