Do you attend the movies as much as you used to?

...Hi abbiemaldonado, I love movies, I go to the movies and I watch the show once, and then I sit for a second showing to analyze the picture. Movies are an escape for me, they sometimes have lessons, they are funny at times, not even meaning to be.
One of the best movies I have seen was Chariots of Fire, I have seen it many times. Thanks for your input. Let's hope the economy turns around sooner rather than later. Take care.

...Hi learn2earn, When it comes to children, parents have to decide what would be the best thing to do in their lives to have the children grow up to become responsible adults. Whether that is less television, less or no movies, less video games, more concentration on homework and so on. Children have very susceptible minds and we should be very careful of what they are exposed to in their daily lives. Books are probably a better form of recreation for children. For myself, I love a good movie, but its harder and harder to find a good movie, money is being thrown into making the most sordid and plot less movies nowadays, that you have to search far and wide for a movie with a worthwhile story. Take care. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

...Hi greenline, I too used to go the movies much more than I do now. I have substituted the television and the movies shown there for my movie going. There was nothing like getting a large bucket of popcorn and a large drink, settling down in the darken theater and getting lost in the film. I miss my weekly escapes, maybe I'll get back to them, but for now, Bravo, and HBO will have to do.
Thanks for your reply. Take care.

I am the same way. I have not been to a movie in at least 3 years either. The last movie I saw in a theatre was Garfield The Movie. It was a fun movie of course. When I read about movies now they do not even sound like something I would enjoy.

.....Hi happy6162, It has been a long time since I have attended the movies as well. I look at the ads for the upcoming movies and there is nothing that grabs my attention as they used to, making me want to rush out and see that movie. I think as well, my movie heroes are getting older and are not showing up as much in films so I look elsewhere for entertainment. Thanks for your reply Take care.

..Hi there muscles4me, I love movies as I have stated before, but lately, I have not had a movie grab my attention to the point that I get in my car and drive to the theater. More so my remote control has become my favorite toy and channel surfing to find the best offering for as movie has become my goal. So I pop my own popcorn, pour my own drink and relax in my own living room, to watch a movie that I have already seen because I like it so much or some other movie that seems like it is worth my time to watch. Take care and thanks for your comment.

...Hi anotherxidentity, You are probably in the majority, where you go sometimes and you don't go as much at other times you don't. At home watching a movie or movies is where I find myself these days, especially when the ticket price hit $7.00, don't know what they are now but it's a little too much for me. So I look for the best that may be on tv and enjoy those movies for what it's worth. Take care.

..Hi drannhh, Thanks for sharing your opinion. I find myself staying home more and more with my television and vcr. It is amazing the increase in price for one movie.
I remember paying 35 cents for 2 movies as well, with a cartoon added. More and more people are entertaining themselves at home and popping their own popcorn. I love movies but now days, the cost has really become prohibitive to attend the theater.
But I still love a good movie. Take care.
