Answer 4

I won't stop seeing movies all together, however my movie habits have been changing and now will have to even more. With the economy as bad as it is I'm very irritated that a multi-billion dollar business has to go to such extremes to earn even more. The theater by me has gone up $3.50/ticket in the past year. Pretty soon only the wealthy will watch movies. We used to go as a family every time something good came out. Now we wait for the dollar theater. Once in a while something will come out that we just can't wait for. Instead of taking the whole family just my husband and I go or we take the child that's just dying to see it. Also, I don't listen anymore to the stats of what movie breaks records by earning the most money. As long as they keep hiking up the prices I think it's all skewed. The number of tickets sold is what's really the true stat.
