I don't know why people complain so much about this, weren't you like against capitalism and mindless consumption?

If you get one of those apps like HBO or Disney plus, you will have like, a catalogue that last years to watch everything

And about the popcorn? Do you realize you can cook that in your home as well right? Now you don't even need oil, with the air fryers

With the advent of Netflix type apps, you can just do movie nights with your family and friends extremely easy, that's a plus if you don't want to spend so much outside

And if you go the selfhost Route, it's even cheaper

So again why the complains?

It's nice to go outside sometimes, particularly to movie palaces. I dress up a little and so does my date, and we usually have a fun discussion about the plot afterwards.

Later I fuck them so hard their orgasm shifts Earth's orbit very slightly.

So yeah, I like movie theaters.

The focus is on what is actually showing. We want to see art not this bullshit. And it's not like streaming services are different in this regard.

No home setup beats the theatre experience for me for most movies
