Any deals right now for a PS3?

with the theater you\'re paying for the screen/sound/seat.

I just never watch a movie more than once in a year, so i dont want to spend the much on it. 18 bucks seems like a fair price, which a lot of blu ray\'s are.

I\'ve never been into buying movies though

You also pay for bad, dusty prints/cell phones/noisy people eating pop corn/dude kicking you in the back of the seat/kids/people getting up to go pee/talking/etc.etc.etc.

I\'ve really come to hate going to the movies in the past few years. People annoy me enough just being alive, I don\'t want to have to go try and watch a movie with them.

I don\'t know, I use to go every weekend when I was growing up, but then movie prices went up and the movies generally sucked, so I quit going. On the other hand, this year has been a stellar year for movies and I\'ve found myself seeing a lot of movies on opening night or opening weekend.  It just all depends on the movie, I guess.

I still love going to the movies, but not on opening night. If I did there would be a trail of dead teenagers in my wake.

I\'m 22 and I find that people who are 4 or 5 years younger than me generally push my patience to the limit.

Too funny...:laughing:...yea..i feel the same way. I hardly ever go to the movies anymore...mainly because of the movies themselves....i think the last time i was truly ever excited to go to the movies was when batman the movie came out...:p....other than that, i\'ll just wait for the movie to come out on dvd,...since the movie industry is so worried about the bootleg version,...movies today are released to dvd faster than they\'ve been in years...

There was a time when you had to wait a looong time for a movie to be released to dvd...and vhs for that matter too...:p

I think piracy is the major reason that discourages people from going to the movies.

It is dead easy to find a movie and download it

If I\'m going to watch a movie, I want to be able to enjoy it instead of watching some shitty quality on my computer chair. I can\'t get comfortable. I need to be in a theater with a friend or a date or sitting on my couch with a good sound system. Otherwise, what\'s the point of the movie?

You can find them in DVD quality. People download them, burn them on disks and then watch them on their TVs

Yeah it\'s true...i don\'t want to advocate this since it\'s probably wrong to be doin\' that stuff,..but i have this site that i go to where i can just watch them without downloading it,...and the quality is crystal clear...i even watched some of the new hulk movie on this site....i\'ve done this while at work tho when i was bored....still i\'d prefer to rent the dvd and watch it in the comfort of my home.

Yeah but I still find discrepencies between the online DVD quality you find on the internet and an actual DVD. I downloaded Braveheart just because I wanted to watch it one night and didn\'t have a car to go off campus to rent it. The quality was good until the fight scenes when the movie completely slowed down. I\'ve noticed the same thing on many movies I\'ve downloaded that were "DVD quality". I haven\'t checked out those sites where you stream yet so I can\'t judge them but I don\'t think its the same as buying or renting a DVD and putting it in my player. When computers can talk to my TV, I may embrace the streaming technology or pay for download but as of now, there is something about buying the movie and owning a hard copy.

Well I didnt have any problems yet with the movies I watched. They were very good. A friend of mine has provided me with lots of movies. I stream them on my TV and I must say that the majority of them looked just as good as the DVD\'s I rented. :)

Perhaps I am less picky thus I dont notice the problems in quality. Even so, you as Titan may demand the best possible quality but movie downloads are becoming a bigger and bigger trend with others. With high Internet speeds movie downloads are routine even if someone didnt plan it at first, and the quality is improving. I recently downloaded Jin-Roh in Blu Ray high def quality. It was pretty stunning.

Maybe I\'m just picky because I\'m a tv/film major so I tend to be a pain in the ass about that sort of thing :)
