BTW there's a lot of good stuff in that list of favorites, but not a single animated film. I take it you're not fond of the medium?

Not big on cartoons or CGI.

New here but NOT new to movies. I love films more than you know. Not too much into artsie films but all in all, I can hang with the best. I will usually do a double feature when I go (I only pay for one, sorry).

I NEVER do streaming and I NEVER will, period!! I still RENT movies on DVD and I love it. I have 5 of them sitting here next to me now, due back Tuesday (lol). I will soon start my own thread rating movies I have seen lately, theater or on rental. I just saw The Mountain Between Us & the new Blade Runner!

I will usually go every other weekend or when I get free time. I live here in WISC (go Packers, currently losing to Dallas, BOO!).

Years ago I was on the FROG site (not sure if I can mention that?) but that has gone bye bye, oh well. I had thousands of posts for nothing I guess.

Thanks for reading, Jon
Welcome, so you save when going to movies but will never stream? Why?
I get all kinds of HD streaming directly to my 65" inch TV screen.
Many movies still in theaters and immediate access in the privacy of my home.
Streaming is the new normal.



You can't win an argument just by being right!

That's actually a reasonable comment. Netflix now dump the first season of each show for the watchers because they know they just wont wait any more

Now its there (lol)...nice board here, I like it.

I was thinking about the year. I cant believe its been that long already.

Time blows by pretty fast (Packers have the lead BTW).

So was I. So mny reboots these days I get them mixed up as well. That movie is a stand alone, though. Would make an interesting netflix series.



I'm old school. I like the theater EXPERIENCE. Big crowds, all laughing crying and gasping together. (lol) Great surround sound, HUGE screen etc.

The smell of the pop corn etc.

I will never stream, never. If I was 17 again, maybe.
