Why the hell do I still have to go to the theaters to watch a movie?

i love going to the theater... but only for blockbusters at this point. I see all the Marvel movies, I'll see every Star Wars, DC, a few others sprinkled here and there.

I really don't see any reason to go for mid level movies that aren't spectacles. I don't even watch a lot of those on my big screen HD tv, i watch rips on my pc and I'm fine with it.

people telling me how dumb i was for watching Hateful Eight on my computer... first of all, i'm not a film nerd in the sense I give a rat's ass about aspect ratio. most people who hyped that probably didn't even know what the fukk it meant. and what did i miss in the theater? nicer shots of snow? the shyt took place in a cabin. I'm sure Revenant looked really good on the big screen, but at no point did I think "man, this would be so much better for $13.

I used to go all the time for big time comedies too, but i think I'm done there as well - at least not on opening weekend. the crowd ruins it. I'm not seeing Deadpool til next week b/c i already know a$$holes are overlaughing to death. I saw crappy movies like Hangover 2 and Dumb and Dumber To on opening weekend and missed 75% of the dialogue b/c people were laughing so much. They essentially forced me to watch a movie i didn't want to watch for a 2nd time again just to see if i missed any gold. Far be it from me to tell you how to enjoy yourself... but shut the fukk up. At least pipe down a bit. Nothing is as funny as you're making it seem. Stop laughing at jokes that have been in every trailer. Stop laughing in anticipation for a joke you haven't ever heard yet. Stop repeating lines back. Stop nudging your stupid friends after a joke, etc.

... I ain't mad though.

Are you sure you not mad tho?:sas1:

Otherwise I agree with a grip of what you said here and respect what I don't agree with.

When that North Korea movie by Seth Rogen was made, he had to release it on Netflix and something else, right? Forgot the other service...
