Star Wars was the only movie to entice me into theaters in years.

However, it has become a much nicer experience than I remembered. At least here in the Portland area with 21+ seating section, assigned huge reclining seats with footstools, meal service, and bar service before the show. Sitting at the front of the balcony section with just a view of the movie screen and not the rabble down below on their phones n such.

It's not necessarily because it's that. Lord knows a lot of the bargain bin DVD movies I get may classify as such, worthy of one look (some more than others).

It's that movie theatre watching is no longer a fun pastime because of the audience and the cost.

That movie with Will Smith and Margot Robbie was Focus and it wasn't that good.

I wish I was able to see Ex Machina, Brooklyn and Room. My bestest by about 20 minutes rarely does indies unless it is Christian film like Warroom, Woodlawn, My All American, etc. They did have Brooklyn but didn't have the tone to see it..

It's about when you go. If you are able to do first showings, it's typically $5-6, maybe $7, depending on the cost of matinees and primetime ticket pricing. Sure bargain bins are still cheaper but the theater is still much better screen and sound than you can find at home.

I highly recommend this. I really admire him continuing to put out films despite the Iranian government banning him.
