Hear hear!!! We *can* make a difference by simply not purchasing Hollyweird claptrap. The last movie I saw in the theatre was the Two Towers (and it was worth every cent). Before that, I saw Fellowship of the Ring, and it was Ice Age before that...so I don't watch a whole lot of movies, either. Hollywood folks are by nature insecure (they spend their whole lives pretending and then asking others how well they did). Yank their cash strings and they're done for.

Ha! I got you beat, I think! LOL. The first movie the VN war veteran I still live with today took me to see was "Good Morning, Vietnam" in 1988, I think. The second and last movie we saw "in" a theater was just a few years after that. Some old geezers fishing through the ice up in MN, LOL - Walter Mathou & Jack Lemmon starred. LMAO!!!

Haven't been to a movie theater since; and don't care to put up with it. Geeze, first off the price of the whole evening - you can sure do better than that staying home and being awhole lot more comfortable than being upright in a theater seat.

Ok for singles/new dates. I sure don't get why others go to theaters. Except for the new releases - ? Well, my thought is, how fast do folks have to see them, anyway?

Good movies prevail. They come out on other venues, besides the newest box office hit. I viewed box office hits when I was in my twenties.

Good, new movies make it to satellite/cable within a year or so, I think; but I could be wrong about the date.

TCM is a GREAT classic channel to watch!
