I remember going to a multiplex in the 80s and seeing several movies to choose from listed. Now I drive by and see nothing worth paying for. And I love movies. I think the last really impressive movie I saw was “Gone Girl”. I saw “Rogue1” and it was okay. Much better than “The Force Awakens”. The new comedies are awful. The last good one was “Worlds End” and thats British.

I have amazon prime and with $5 a month I get a load of Brit mysteries from Acorn, any one of which is more engaging than these overblown comic book movies.

I would go out to movies if they would make some good ones. But Hollywoods law that all movies push pervert values I’m going to keep passing.

BOL! Sure beats the Aug/Sept reruns of crap, we didn't want to watch when it was new.

We pay $5 per month for the CBS app and can watch any show ever aired by CBS. One of our teenage grand kids od's on The Big Bang Theory and the various NCIS shows. Give him a couple of bags of microwave popcorn and a pitcher of Sun tea, and he is set for the afternoon or evening.

We donate 5$/month for PBS and get a great selection of their shows including new episodes on old favorites and most of the Master piece shows on a limited time but for free. We pay a small amount per month for Prime's concert series.

After the SF Giants end their miserable season, we may dc our Sling & paying extra to get ABC for my wife to watch the Kelly and ? show. It has turned out be a parade of follywooders and the NY stage actors.

The only movie so far this year that we were interested in has been Dunkirk. We will pay a few bucks to Prime to watch it when it leaves the theaters.

We haven't watched an NFL game since the Colon mess.

We stopped watching fake news on ABCNNBCBS decades ago, Faux news last January and the local Faux this January.

I use the conservative internet sites and Free Republic for my news.

Looking forward to basically Amazon Prime with a cafeteria approach to a few channels. Even Sling has a lot of bs channels we never watch and pay for.
