I used to go to the movies at least once a week. Sometimes twice. Seven main reasons I don’t go anymore (or extremely rarely):
1.) The quality of movies does not compel me to go.
2.) The cost of going to a movie is too high. I feel that $11 per person is unreasonable.
3.) Lack of general manners and consideration in society. People converse and carry on in a darkened theater without even a second thought.
4.) Coupled with lack of general manners and consideration is the ubiquity of phones and other devices. People do not even blink an eye at carrying on a conversation on a phone in the middle of a movie. Or text. Or surf the Internet.
5.) Most movie theaters are filthy and in need of renovation and repair.
6.) Staff at movie theaters are unhelpful and apathetic at best, or surly at worst.
7.) With the advent of excellent and affordable 60” LCD screens, home stereo, streaming video and places like Redbox, even the draw of a big screen isn’t enough.
The last movie I paid money to see was “American Sniper”. It was worth it, seeing it with friends in the small privately owned theater in my town which has been renovated and has been there since 1947. Admission was $7.50 and concessions were reasonable (comparatively speaking)
And that's just for the popcorn!
I want to go to IMAX and see superman fly off the screen nd around the theatre and catch Lois Lane dropping out of the ceiling. Holigrams could bring people into the theatre until they figure out how to do it at home.
At home, put me in the huddle inside a hologram or in the locker room or dugout and let me inside the game.
