Not just that, but the people going to movies are becoming ruder all the time.  Forget Friday night at primetime, then there is being held hostage to 20 minutes of commercials disguised as "Pre-show entertainment"

Yeah - what's with that? I think they should show all that stuff with the lights still up so you can get to a seat without worrying that somebody really needs to jot down the phone number for the local septic pump guy or whatever...

I wonder how long it will be before you can digitally stream new movies directly to your home as they are released - pay per view - of course.

Technology just might leave the old theatre behind - has for me anyways.

This way, the only thing I get angry about is the movie itself! (or the wife if she forgets the popcorn) ;)

I love the movie theater experience itself, and my home theater will never totally replace the experience, but my enjoyment is usually nuked by the overall rude behavior of the audience.  I can wait for movies to come out on DVD or cable.  Seems like the length of time between a movie's opening weekend and the DVD release is getting shorter all the time.  

Then there is netflix.com, my buddy, the one who got me going on the projector thing, uses.  I think he pays $18 per month and can have three movies out at a time.  The are shipped to his home, he can keep them as long as he wants, return shipping isn't extra, when he returns a movie they send another one within a day or so.  I think I'll be giving that a try as well, but maybe more towards fall when we're not outside so much.

Brewman, netflix.com is GREAT!!!

I had a subscription, but got too busy to watch any movies!  They will let you keep them for as long as you want, you keep a list of the movies you want on-line, then when you send one back, the next available title on your list is sent to you.  I found that they were very quick in sending the new ones out.  Plus, they give you an opportunity to rate movies you may have already seen, so others may benefit.

I thought it was a great service!  When I went back to school to finish my bachelor's degree, I had to give it up!

JcDenton:
That would something that I might be interested in but it looks like they don't ship DVD's to the Great White North.

Take off! ;D
