My strategy: - no theatre[0] - rent all movies (mostly via Apple TV and Xbox360) - if I ever want to see a movie again, push it to a wishlist - regularly scan for sales and buy only movies on the wishlist, and only if their price is below a given cap. By that time retail prices have dropped a long way down from the original price, and my flat is not filled with watch-once-and-take-dust frisbees, which I happened to pay less and see much earlier than if I waited for prices to drop. And while it seems I pay for some films twice, in the end I actually pay less for those than if I bought them on the first view. [0]: Counting theatre for two persons, plus parking/public transport, I could watch five to seven movies for the same price at home, in a more comfortable situation, with a better quality. Around here theatres are a massive social-engineered ripoff.
