Tap, Tap, Tap, it seems like the consistent kick from the little rascal sitting behind you will never end. After the third or fourth time the person with the bladder problem has squeezed between you, you just wish you would have stayed home. Although attending the theater and viewing a movie at your own home are two different enjoyable entertainment choices, the convenience of watching a movie in the comfort of your own home offers better advantages and outweighs going to the theater. The cost overall, number of interruptions, and comfort level of going out to a movie rather than picking up a blockbuster are nothing in common.
I love going to the movies, but the continual rise in prices at the is ridiculous. It now costs eight dollars for one adult to see a movie. That doesn’t include the cost of popcorn, drinks, or candy.

Those immobile armrests make snuggling for you and your significant other close to impossible. They’re like an annoying object that wont quit sticking in your rib cage. Have you ever realized that the temperature of movie theater feels like its always sixty degrees, no matter how cold it is outside. In can be a summer day and you still have to bring a winter coat to stay warm at the movies. And for the customers who are a little tall, the small space between the rows of seats can be sort of tight. Fortunately, legroom is not a proble
