Ya, if you ask a 1000 people why they no longer go to the movies they will all tell you its because of the Ads, the cost, and the hassel.

They would rather stay home and buy the movie on DVD or rent it rather than pay $50.00 to sit in a crowded theater with a bunch of people who won't shut the hell up, are often sick, and get up and walk in front of you every five minutes when they can sit in the comfort of their own homes, eat microwaved popcorn and watch the movie on their new 52" plasma big screen.

Hollywood likes to cry foul and blame the lack luster box office sales on piracy but in truth its the adds, the theater costs for treats, the hassels, and the tick prices that have turned people to the lower cost of DVD's and jiffy pop pop corn.

Amen to that, Atro!

When I go, it's really my wife and me, so that's $16.00 just for tickets! And these days, GAS to get there.

Heck, we usually wait for the DVD and buy it, lay on our bed and watch the movie in our bedroom on our 56 inch Sony where the sound is driven by a Yamaha digital amp to a Bose surround sound system. Only went to see Serenity to help with box office totals.

Amen brother http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

I hate the captivity of the theater
I'm paying them to show me Ads?!?!
I'm paying them $4.00 for a tub of popcorn I could make at home for $0.25??!!?
I'm not even guaranteed that the ******** behind me won't start talking on his cell phone??!?
I have a nice big tv at home, so the only advantage of the movie theater for me is the sound system, and once I save $400 more I'll be able to buy a better surround sound system and that won't even be true.

I only rarely go see movies, and that is mostly for movies like Serenity where I want to encourage Hollywood for making it.

Re: Any One Going To Go See Serenity?

Serenity is now out on DVD and is well worth the $20.00 price tag. If you have not seen the movie I would strongly recommend that you pick up the DVD as a personal gift to yourself.

Heh, we over in europe have to wait until february, but we get extras http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif But yes, and pick up the series in the sales if you haven't. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...es/biggrin.gif

Bought my friends the series for christmas and today I'm meeting some others for the possibility of running the Serenity RPG. All I can say is shiny.

Got ours in the mail from Amazon on the 20th.

Re: Any One Going To Go See Serenity?

Since I missed Serenity in theatre's, I rented it this weekend. I think it's one of the best Sci-Fi movies I've seen recently, quite well done.

Re: Any One Going To Go See Serenity?

There's an easter egg on the DVD. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Watched all the deleted scenes (I think a couple should have been left in).
