Unless it's a movie that requires big screen and kick ass sound, my wife and I usually wait for the DVD to come out and rent it or buy it - beats paying for the ticket plus the food.

 

I just realized I made a grammatical mistake on the topic

 

Some movies are worth going to the theather and enjoying it with a large crowd... or maybe that's just me lol.

 

You know Rich, I didn't notice till you pointed it out

I almost always wait for the DVD... I prefer to watch movies in the comfort of my home, and my system, short of a little smaller screen is just as good as a theatre anyway.

 

I hate the fact that movies are overpriced and so often overhyped. The people are usually rude and won't shut up during the movie. I can wait the 6-12 months for the movie to come out on DVD.

 

I usually download then buy DVD if it's good.

I go only if it is either a movie I'm dying to see and can't wait, or if it's going to have sweet special effects that I want to enjoy on a big screen. It's rare though. My next for sure theater movie will be Matrix 2!

 

I *LOVE* going to the theaters... also, if the person that is being rude is in the row in front of me, the back of their seat gets a good solid kick

 

I usually go to the movies like once every 2 weeks, I like the feel of watching a movie in a movie theater, especially since I don't have a DVD player (sold my PS2), and the movie experience is also cool if u have a big one near you... In terms of price, ya, it's expensive, but I'd spend that much if I did something else, and you could cut down on the costs by not getting food there (big rip-off), going to matinees, or going on tuesdays...
