Do you still go to the movie theater to watch movies?

Question

Ez-Bri-Z_v2 · Accepted Answer

I rarely do. We rent out a theater room for our kids in their birthdays and let then watch a movie with their friends. Sometimes my boyfriend and I will go when we are on a date or there is a movie we both want to see. Mostly though we just watch movies at home on Fandango where we have about 750-800 movies paid for on there.

I have if I wanna get out of the house, but I think I will stop now, as they now show these movies on TV like 3 weeks after they're done playing in the theaters. Plus they're so expensive. Only ones I might go see is Indiana Jones and James Bond

I still love going to the theater 🎬✨
Watching a film on a huge screen with great sound, especially festival films or big visual movies, feels completely different from streaming at home. I usually go for premieres, Oscar contenders, or artsy foreign films. But I’m picky now, so for average movies I wait and watch them on streaming in comfy clothes 😄🍿

Not as much as I used to; I used to have the rewards pass and whatnot. Me and my college friends would be there weekly. Then I moved but I used to go maybe once every other week pre-2020. I always take my family to any new Marvel or like more lighthearted movies. I’ll usually go see a good horror or indie movie by myself. I don’t really care for streaming a movie if it’s the first time I’m seeing it. I like going by myself so I don’t have to answer a lot of questions or criticism for my choice in movie.

The last time I went to a cinema to watch a film was in 1997 to see ‘Volcano’ staring Tommy Lee Jones, Anne Heche, Gaby Hoffmann, Don Cheadle.

I have not been to any since because there is no longer a cinema in my town centre, and it just costs too damn much, for the ticket (once you saw two films-a short and the main feature, now you only get the main feature, and the length of those have shrunk), the transport to/from etc.

What was once a cheap night out has now become a major outlay, which is not worth the expense when you consider that six months down the line you could have a ‘movie night’ at home, watch the same film in the comfort of your own home with probably better acoustics, and all the snacks you could need.

I am not saying that I will never go back ot the theater but the costs of tickets and the quality of movies today have made it hard to justify the expense.

queenofcardio · Answer

I haven't in over a year. I'll only go if there's a movie that I'm very interested in watching.

molonski2 · Answer

100 % it's just a vastly different commitment , you need to watch the movie not be moving around , I attend as often as I can...

beenherebefore · Answer

Yes! We just watched Michael in a movie theater last week. The theater was full, not a single empty seat.

Jersey2 · Answer

Yes. Last movie was Hokum a week ago or so. We liked it. But Odyssey will be a no for us. It is an obnoxious attempt to meet Oscar qualifications and destroys our cultural history.

I haven't been to the cinema in 15 years. Does anyone over 25 go to the movies?

najekim · Answer

Rarely. Around here one movie theater actually closed up for a while. The owner stated that were not any good movies out worth presenting.

Kingofkings1992 · Answer

Not really. It's a rip off. Tickets are outrageous and so are the concessions.
