And an observation, who goes without years watching a movie? Seriously. Okay, I have 10-year old twin boys. But even before that, I watched movies and everyone I know does. Not many, but we do watch. To not do so, what is alternative, hermit kingdom? :)
(sigh)
The last movie I saw at a theater was when I took my son to see the first Transformers movie. Prior to that was when I took my daughter to see The Lion King.
Since 2000 our one indulgence was the DirectTV Platinum package that gave us every channel. I got mad at AT&T so we now have the Ultimate package for Verizon FIOS. I mainly watch movies and have them on in the background while I work in my home office.
If I want to see a movie I will wait until it hits our TV or will buy the BluRay.
My wife and I will have been together for 40 years this coming September and we probably have gone to see maybe ten or so movies the entire time. We go out and do many other things as we both detest going to theaters.
Agreed. I do not steal movies. I don’t consider it right. I hope none of these who do this all the time here complain about anyone ripping off taxpayers with welfare and benefits they didn’t earn or they don’t need.
Are you talking about watching movies or going to a theater? I agree with you that torrent and the like are stealing, however, the last movie we saw in a theater was the True Grit remake in 2010, and we don't feel like our lives are empty.
Movies are played at ear-splitting sound levels such that dialogue is unintelligible and our heads ring for hours after leaving the theater. Philosophically, we don't like funding those who work for our destruction. Picking our battles, we don't have Netflix or Hulu, but we do have Amazon Prime.
We get movies from the library, occasionally buy a dvd, or see them on Amazon Prime.
