Re: Price?
said by yabos  :I guess if you go by yourself(who does that?) I love to go to the movies by myself.
Personally, I view it as a time to see something I really wanted to see and get into and not have to socialize with someone else while it's playing.
The ONLY time I go is during the week for an early afternoon matinee because generally, just a few of us have the whole theater to ourselves as well. Not to mention it costs less as well.
And, I agree with the poster above who say's you'll never get the same experience at home.
Although I have an awesome video setup at home..(samsung HDTV and 5 speaker Bose 901 audio)..it's just not the same as the movie theater experience.
The popcorn tastes better..the atmosphere is in place..
the size of the theater..bigger..and during the day..it's all ours.

I've gone to the movies alone many times as well. Most people see it as being a loser, but I don't put much stock in other people's judgements.
Since you can't exactly hold a conversation during a movie it's not exactly a social experience. So if the movie's good enough and nobody else is down I'm game for a solo viewing.

said by Rick :The popcorn tastes better.. Here's how you too can have movie-theatre quality popcorn at home:
•pop favorite brand of popcorn (something generic/cheap is recommended)
•place popped kernels in an clear-plastic garbage bag
•allow to sit for three days until slightly stale
•cover with a cheap brand of light-weight motor oil
•salt to taste
