Movie Theater or Movie at Home

2tiredmom · 09-19-2006, 09:52 AM

Ok Girls. What was the last movie you went to see in the theater?
Priates of the Carribean the new one. I forgot the name. I'm having a senior moment. Any way. That was this summer. It was a great movie....

I don't like going to the movies. I wait until they come out on dvd and buy them. I'd rather put my jammies on and watch it. I can get a drink when I want or go to the bathroom and just pause it.

Oh gosh...I haven't been to a movie theater in years! I honestly cannot remember! Yikes!!!! I better go see one soon!!!!!!!

I love staying at home and watching a movie, but I always fall asleep! So when I go to the theater I actually get to see the movie! I can't even remember the last movie I saw in theater...the last movie I saw at home was Wedding Crashers...I lasted about 5 minutes until I rolled over and slept!

My hubby and I don't go to the movies but maybe twice a year. When we do I make myself sick on all that popcorn, but it's soooo good! Gotta have the extra extra butter with that white cheddar powder dumped ontop. Oh gosh yum!

We enjoy movies at home just as much but the phone always rings, ugh.

I'd much rather be home watching a movie... I can be comfy, I can make snacks or drinks when I want without missing any of the movie or paying crazy prices. The last movie I saw in the theater was You, Me, and Dupree. My bf and I have netflix, so we are always getting new movies at our house.

I like watching movies at both places..probably moreso at home. The last movie I saw in a theater was King Kong. Nothing to write home about!!

The last movie we went to see as a family at the theater was The Rookie starring Dennis Quaid - thought the boys would enjoy it and I ended up LOVING it...bought the dvd the day it was released! With 2 boys that are now 13 or older, we all have to pay adult prices so it's just too expensive to go to the movies as tickets alone would cost us almost $30 then to buy the drinks and popcorn - it's just too much. So what we do is if it's a movie we think we'll enjoy, we buy it. That way, we can watch at our own pace, watch it again in case we "missed" something, and fix our own snacks at home. We wanted to go see Pirates of the Caribean, Dead Man's Chest but we had so much going on at the time it was here, we just had no time to go see it so - we'll buy it when it's released on dvd.

The last movie I saw in the theater was Talladega Nights...The Ballad of Ricky Bobby. I am a HUGE Will Ferrell fan, so I loved every minute of it. It was hilarious! My hubby HATES going to the movie theater. The reason he went with me to see this movie is because it was our 1 year anniversary.

I definately prefer movies at home! So much more comfy! Get in your pj's, cuddle up with a pillow, blanket and your hubby and you're good to go!!!

Mandy · 09-19-2006, 12:51 PM

I love to curl up on the couch and watch a movie, specially when it's cold miserable rainy weather! We dump snacks and drinks on the table, get all comfy with pillows... the fur kids LOVE those days LOL

Amber_lv · 09-19-2006, 01:58 PM

I like both to.

The last movie I saw in theatres was Step Up. I didn't really want to see it, but my friends did, and my boyfriend's sister INSISTED I see it. It wasn't a bad movie, but all I wanted to do later was dance!
Last week my roommate brought a movie back here from his parents house, called Best In Show. It's a mockumentary about dog shows. I watched it all alone on the weekend and it was pretty funny!
When I'm with a bunch of people I like going to the theatre to watch movies, but if it's just me and my boyfriend I like staying home so we can sit back and cuddle

I only saw 3 movies this summer... The Devil Wears Prada, Clerks II and Little Miss Sunshine.

We have Comcast On-Demand and they release movies on there only a couple of months after they are released at the theatre. The very newest ones are $3.99 a pop so it's like renting a DVD and not having to worry about returning it! Wait another month or two and they're On-Demand for free.

Since I have 300-some channels on cable and about 15-20 of them are all movies all the time I rarely pay for movies. Even when I go to the theatre I go to the matineesm when they only charge $7.... but you pay another $20 for popcorn and a soda!

the last movie I went to see was The day after tomorrow. we usually wait till they come out on dvd and buy it, but I couldnt wait for that one.
