And paying for the privilege...
Hollywood liberal elites make a few films for fellow liberal elites and lots of violent ‘no dialog’ stupid stuff for democrat victim groups and teenagers. Maybe it'll be better when the Chinese buy out Hollywood - can't be worse.
It's a horrible experience. Even when you are seeing the rare decent movie, you have to sit through 20 minutes of previews, condescending messages and leftist commentary. Last movie I saw, there was a preview of Al Gore's next movie on Global Warming. The only redeeming moment was when the preview briefly showed President Trump and half the theater clapped. Bet they weren't expecting that. This was in Connecticut! Then they send the ushers up and down the aisles with collection plates, like it was church, collecting for some pet cause like fighting AIDS or some such.
Most times when I'm in the mood for a movie, I sit at home and watch something on Netflix or YouTube. I have a Roku Box that sends YouTube from my computer to the TV screen. The video quality is surprisingly good and you can find most of the older movies on YouTube. The Netflix offerings are scant but you can usually find something worth watching and the video quality is astonishing. As a last resort, I have Amazon Prime in which you can stream most movies for a nominal fee.
I had an infected tooth that hurt so bad once, I wanted to die. Once it was pulled, I cried tears of happiness at the relief...
