    Oh yes. I agree. Nothing can match up seeing a good film in a cinema.

    If cinema tickets were cheaper I'd definitely go and see more movies. I don't download cams or any of that crap when the movie first comes out so I have to wait until the R5 comes out. So if movie tickets were like 2-3 bucks for a general admission ticket at a regular movie theater i'd be all for it.
    See ya in another life, brother.

    Isn't this the same thing ?
    Not really, what I mean are trackers like Blackcats and What.



    For movies I'll catch them on the cinema.

    Anyway, good topic.

    I will always download everything I need as long as it's free. Why buy something when you can get it for free?

    For me, its not so much the cost, well it is,i have 3 kids and another due any day now, I cant drive and the nearest cinema is 7 miles away.

    £7.50 a ticket for me, my wife and 2 sons, 4yr old daughter not sure how much or her, bus fair would be £12 for a family ticket, Hot Dogs, Pop Corn, Drinks etc.

    You would be talking £60+ for me to get to the cinema to see a 2 hour Film.

    I think the other problem is Supply and demand, there is just ar to much supply, and not enough demand for it.

    For every great film, you will get 100 crap ones, for every great game, you will get 100 crap ones (more if you are a Wii user lol) same for music.

    I will think, wouldnt mind that, download it, think, How bad is this, never look at it again, but if i had payed £60+ for a movie in the cinema, or £40+ for the game, I would be disapointed big time, and probably never go/buy 1 again lol

    If they were cheaper then yes i would buy dvds and tickets. Some DVD's are costing £20 Plus and for a night out at the pictures costs £50 once you include your snacks for everybody. For me a quick two hour film is not enough for a night out most people want to do something else after.

    I don't blame the cinema for their ridiculous prices as everybody has to make money, but somewhere along the line somebody is greedy.
