The last movie you saw-- in a theater?

[PancakeBill]

I think the title was Save the Children? The one where they save kids from trafficing. The closest theater at this point is a multi about 38 miles away. The one before that was the latest Top Gun. My hard of hearing wife says the movies are too loud. I like loud stuff, but she was right.

Earplugs help a LOT, but in some venues even that isn't enough.

... all new movies will have to be shown in cinemas for a certain amount of time before being available for streaming. Not sure if thats true....

Theater release first is pretty much the norm but of course with some exceptions. Most new releases are theater only for a period of time (45-90 days even) before being available on streaming services.

But lately, not all follow this scenario with some using a shorter window and a few even releases simultaneously-- theater and streaming at the same time.

I think the goal is for theaters to rake in those huge profits on popcorn and soft drinks before I can watch anything in my own living room.

Very good. Worth the price of admission.

I hadn't been to a movie theater since pre-covid but last month I went with my sister and niece to see the new Tron at the local movie house. Wasn't bad except the sound was cranked up to 12+ making it distorted to the point where it was hard to even understand the dialog. I complained on my way out and got one of those "OK, Boomer" sighs in return.

It's been so long I don't recall. Our alternative is a 75" Samgung OLED which, except for the remote, has been a wonderful improvement over our old rear screen projector TV.

Grumpy old men
1993 or 94.
Wife try’s to get me to go. Says I won’t believe the seats and stuff.
I say “ Ba humbug”
I’m now a grumpy old man.

WICKED was my most recent movie, and Avatar: The Way of Water before that.

I don't recall. I remember going to see The Hobbit and got annoyed that they added so much fluff, that I didn't bother to see the rest of them. My wife went to see the second Wicked. I didn't.
