Do y'all still go to the movies ?

For a time it seemed streaming might kill theaters. But I'm glad they held on, and remain plentiful .

Netflix, Amazon, etc, are convenient and possibly cheaper alternatives to a theater.
But getting ready, and meeting friends to attend a movie elevates the experience to a night on the town.
It's a night out of doors, with possibly dinner afterwards.

While the solitude of your livingroom is nice; there's something about sharing the emotional rollercoaster with 60 other human beings.
That shared social experience imparts a sense of solidarity; and amplifies stimulation as your senses take their cues from the audience around.

I do still go, for these very reasons.

The nostalgia for my theater experience is positive, and spans years.
With the first movie I ever saw was 'The Fugitive'. My friend and I snuck in because it was age restricted.
We followed that up, with 'Alive' (front row seats), then 'A Few Good Men'.

empire strikes back.
i stopped watching tv and movies a few years ago.
not saying i dont watch it occasionally. i just dont go out my way for it..

I remember Star Wars when I was a teen. First movie. We were a large family. My oldest sis and her bf took all of us. Rarely do I go now. Netflix fills my movie quota. Going out costs do much too.

Rarely
The streaming services did indeed impact that
Netflix has lost its luster imo ever since Ozark was ended

The first one I remember was Jurassic Park.

Last time was to see Migration.

Yes, we just did 2 weeks ago we took the kids to see Inside Out 2.

Nope. My budget is so limited that I can only pay for the internet, and streaming. That way I can access hundreds of movies and tv shows for about three times the price of physically attending ONE movie. MUCH more cost effective!

Think the first movie I saw in theaters was Tim Burton’s Batman.

While streaming services have upped their game with some of the movies they produce nowadays, for me it will never be the same experience as going to a movie theater to see titles like Deadpool and Wolverine or The Avengers or Titanic in 3D.

I don't go nearly as often as I used to but I still go every few months, mostly because of my kids. The memories have gotten a bit hazy but earliest memories of going to the movies include Willow and Back to the Future II.

Very rarely.

I worked at the movies in hs and college and beyond. I've barely gone to the movies since I quit, which was well before the pandemic. It just feels like I'm going to work, lol

I don't remember my first movie, hmmm

Going to the movies is still a good date night.

My very first movie? 🤔 i think it was snow white , when i was very young

I still go occasionally. I don't recall my first movie. What I recall are movie theaters with stages. As kids we would play on them before the movie began.

I think it might have been the original version of The Jungle Book....

Not really. You can do everything off your phone or watch it online.

My first movie eas either Fantasia or the Jungle Book

just pirate anything you want online free

Rarely.

Nope, can’t remember the last movie I saw.

Some movies are better on the big screen.

Nope

Theaters near me have closed.

I think it was the Care Bear movie.

Yes, I enjoy going to the theatre ☺

The first movie I saw at the cinema was 'Flight of the Navigator' the last one I saw at one was 'X-Men'... These days I just Netflix it.

Beatlejuice? I haven’t been to that one yeti

First theater movie? 🤔 I honestly don't know cause I don't remember. It might have been Lion King.
Last one I saw in theaters was Dune II. Also went to see The Boy and the Heron and Oppenheimer before that. There's nothing I'm really interested in seeing that's in theaters right now at the moment.

Sometimes.
There is something magical about seeing a film on the big screen.
Except horror, I like streaming horror alone at night for the first viewing.

Rarely. There isn't much worth seeing these days. 😥

No, being on assisted oxygen I often get treated like I'm a leper in public, so I watch premium streaming through my roku.
