Young people go out to get out of the house and be entertained. Now, though, if you have a decent house and tv, there are better and longer stories to watch at home. Series are better than films usually now, and even films can be watched at home if you don’t care to be the first to watch it. Better food, better bathrooms.
Times have changed. We're seniors and don't need to go to movies. Everything we want is at home, decent house and TV entertainment system. Can pause, rewatch other parts of the movie, no interference from others like at a theater, have all the snacks we need.
When younger, young people got out of the house to be on dates without parents hovering around them. Then they got jobs, moved to their own place, and didn't need to get out to be entertained. But now, with "young" people in their thirties still living with their parents, I guess they're the ones still going out to the movies.
I bought a big tv that functions as a film screen. I enjoy series Now watching Blue Bloods and waitng eagerly for the next seasons of House of Cards and Longmire and Last Man Standing on Netflix.
Between Netflix streaming, Netflix DVD and you-tube I am happy!
