We go four or five times a year and every time we go we see previews that look appealing and then don't go to see them.


This article which is almost two years old shows Movie theater attendance steadily declining.

I haven't been to the theater in at least 3-4 years. Saw the "Bucket List".

Occasionally. And I enjoy when we do.

But It's hard to get excited about going when we have our big-screen 4k TV, comfortable chairs, pause button whenever we want, and unlimited 'free' snacks and beverages right here at home. :)

That sounds great.

I go one or two times a week unless company is here and we may go 4 to 5 times a week. Some visitors LOVE movies.

If I go to a movie this year my average will be every fourteen years. Last time was when I got elected to take the grandkids to see Garfield while my girls went shopping in Gulf Shores, Alabama.

We go when a movie comes out that we really want to see on a big screen. Usually sci-fi, it's hard to fit the galaxy onto a small screen, it's just not the same. :) We also enjoy the theatre experience. We make it to one about every couple of months.

Yeah, I enjoyed George Clooney and Sandra Bullock spinning around on the big screen. hehe
