I don’t have money for that. Plus I don’t like being in a room with strangers where you can’t talk back to the screen. That’s too much like work, and when I go to work, they pay me. And most of all, there is no pause button in the theatre. When I need a toilet and/or a snack, I need a pause button to go with it.
My wife watches enough new movies for both of us. From what she tells me, they’re a bunch of stories with acting and stuff like that. I get enough of that at work, and again, they pay me.
More important, the old movies I watch are so old, and often so cheaply made, that they’re like dispatches from another planet. Again, I can get that at work, but these are free, plus with the distinct advantage of being able to fart or burp or, especially,scratch my balls (you older gentlemen will understand) without shame or fear of police action.
