Comment Why do it anyway? (Score 1) 381

The whole 3d push doesn't make much sense to me. Here, tickets cost $2.50 more. They're giving away a pair of glasses with each movie. Half of the cost of those glasses HAS to be paying their workers to deal with them. The projectors are expensive. The cameras are expensive. Editing MUST be more expensive. And no one really feels 3d adds much value. The movie industry is 100% saturated and not going to grow. The extra profit margin in 3d has to be minimal at best, and the increased risk isn't negligible.

Why, again, are they pushing 3d?

This person is clearly talking on a cell phone. I don't understand your reluctance to accept it. You're obviously the kind of person who thinks the moon landing was faked, too. What you can't see is that this woman is simultaneously receiving cunnilingus from Caligula. Must have swung by 40 (AD) on her way.

Where do you live that you think a commute in a smaller city is even a factor? The average household income here is about $44k. A decent 2000sqft house can be had for $150k. My commute (from outside of town) is about 10 minutes, and a lot of people live closer than that. You can easily find a job making at least $60k. If you can't make it in in the winter sometimes, you can work from home.

Amazing, isn't it? Your friends and family can affect your real life! And the only choice you have is to either deal with it or cut off all ties to them. Ever seen Black Sheep?

The summary sure is rich. Removing someone from your Facebook friends is akin to cutting off your head. Brilliant.
