Where Do You See Films/ Theatre, Home, etc?

I chose "Other" because I rent, buy, watch on cable, and go to the movies.

Other - Pay-per-view!

When I was married to my former husband -- a charter member of the Dull Men's Club (remember the late comedian Jackie Vernon) and a liar/fraud-committer who borrowed tons of money, making 'normal' spending impossible -- every Friday, we rented a video which we watched together while I ironed (I was not allowed to be idle and the video was the spoonful of medicine that made the ironing go down). The vcr mercifully broke sometime after we separated.

I love going to the movies and prefer it to watching them at home. I do not believe in owning movies unless they are beloved. I think buying movies is just a symptom of acquisativeness. Nobody watches all those movies sufficient times to warrant taking up the space with them.

I can't afford even second runs these days but the last time I went to a first run,mass market theatre (last Christmas to see Lord of the Rings II), I was appalled by all the previews for junky mass market movies I would never see and the commercials!

We catch alot of movies nowadays at home on cable and buy dvd's of those "worthy of the library." My husband and his son go to the movies to see the action stuff but I haven't been interested in going to the movies to see anything, preferring to wait until they come out on dvd, which I then rent, view and then thank God that I didn't spend ten bucks to go see. The Banger Sisters come to mind immediately.

I used to love going to the movies. Then I seemed to sort of grow out of that - and I hated Nell so much that I couldn't face movies for nearly a decade.

I can't see the point of buying anything other than a movie I love a lot and would want to see many times. It seems like a waste of time, money and space.

Nell?

Nell. Jodie Foster/Liam Neeson. Horrible, horrible film. Did I mention it was horrible.

I watch all my movies on our satellite dish at hime and record the ones I really love.

Oh yeah. Nell.
ps-love the new avatar, ehBeth. Endora was one kick-ass dame.

I'd love to watch movies in theaters, but at about 10 bucks a ticket, I can't stomach it. . . I only go when it's a movie I dearly love (LOTR, for example).

I wind up watching most of them years later when they show up on tv.

If I had my druthers, I would probably want to own 10% of the films that we have. It's my husband who likes to have movies in hand, "just in case we want to watch something". One day I am going to have a HUGE garage sale!

I like to go to the movie theatre, especially to see the big spectacle films that won't be nearly as good on my TV. There was a time when I went at least once a week, but the price is getting a little prohibitive. I usually go at the discount times so tickets are around $5-$6.

I love Netflix (they mail you the DVDs and you mail them back) so I never go to Blockbuster anymore. Actually I had grown to hate Blockbuster and had switched to Hollywood before I discovered Netflix.

I don't have any premium cable channels, and the commercials and editing and bleeping drive me nuts on the other channels, so I don't watch many films on TV.

I don't buy DVDs (or books, for that matter.)
