But now I checked streaming. I used to love the cinema. And I still go to our local Arthouse cinema for non-mainstream movies. And also every now and then with my spouse to the mainstream cinema. But the latter ist getting less and less attractive. Prices are insane, especially with 3D, and also for snacks and drinks. An evening there for a single person with soft drink and popcorn can cost as much as 20 to 25 EUR, depending on length of movie and if it's in 3D. I couldn't care less for the 3D, but alas many movies are released 3D-only nowadays.
In contrast, renting a nice movie on the AppleTV / iTunes for between 1 and 4 EUR plus homegrown food and drinks makes for a nice evening and still a good experience.
What I can't stand at all anymore are movies on TV with a ton of commercial breaks and bad editing! E.g. Die Hard was on a couple of weeks ago, and they cut out *every* scene that was deemed too violent. Which in itself is sort of understandable, but it ruined the plot. There was suspense being build up, you knew there would be a brawl or shooting and: BAM! Cut to the next scene, Bruce Willis is somewhere else, bleeding slightly more. What a downer.
