I watch movies at home too, but it helps to know they played in a theater somewhere.

I have found that my chances of enjoying a movie go up a few percentage points if I experience it in a theater setting. It's my favorite method of movie consumption.
I'll watch a streaming movie too, of course, or a blu-ray. I have a good setup for it in my living room. But it's not quite the same.

I never buy concessions so I don’t even know exactly, but probably around that or more. Which is too much for me. Matinee and morning tickets are around $7.00, evening $11ishEllo Sailor wrote:Really? It's about the same in NZ.lennytheweedwhacker wrote:That’s too much
