Choose your adventure: - people using their phones during the movie - people talking during the movie - $15-20 for popcorn and soda - droll hollywood plots - seats too far in the back (unless you can book seats, and did so early enough) - driving 20-40 minutes to a nice theater and parking - can't bring in alcohol (unless your local theather allows it) - no pausing/rewinding - dwindling sales means higher ticket and concessions prices, which makes less people go, and repeat Yeah it's really a shocker that people want to watch movies at home. My home setup is really nice, and, well, it's my home. However our local theater is $10/ticket. So we've caught some showings for new films like Uncut Gems, or stuff like Studio Ghibli Fest that I actually wanted to see on the big screen. Also at home I can watch old, cheesy Jackie Chan films from my collection with friends with some beers and laugh our heads off.
