I'm currently in a large-ish metropolitan area and my problem is that even after watching 30-31 movies a month, there are still several new releases that I miss. For all of its faults, Moviepass has really opened my eyes to many excellent independent and foreign films.
For those who claim there aren't three films a year that are worth watching, what do you think is a film worth watching? Do you require that everything be a "Citizen Kane" or "2001: A Space Odyssey"?
- themoat 8y agoI've been more and more picky about movies over the last few years. I think that the OC was probably just exaggerating, but I'd say I watch all of 3 movies per year in theaters. I don't mind wasting a lazy evening watching a movie at home, even some lackluster ones if I'm being honest, but if I'm going to take my wife out and spend $40, I'd rather go do something interesting, eat something fun, do anything else, typically. Usually the only movies I'll pay money to watch in theaters are ones that I don't want spoiled while I wait to watch them at home. Work usually takes us to a few movies a year and I always leave thinking "I wouldn't pay money to see it...but it was fun I guess."
