my wife works three day weeks and she just discovered you can get a monthly movie pass for like twice the price of a single ticket and watch all the movies you want only pay the tax.

My teen wanted to go to a movie until he found out it was $17.50. That not just driving away customers, but the industry is losing the next generation entirely

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 days ago

Tbh it probably costs the theater that much, it's just that wages haven't matched inflation for decades and streaming just utterly destroys theaters on cost. New movies coming to theaters also just mostly suck. Why would anyone want to see Marvel slop formula #2,938 when it's nearly identical to the 2937 ones that came out before it? Even non Marvel movies are essentially Marvel movies with the action/comedy/nothing too thought provoking or interesting formula to appeal to the max number of people as possible. I remember getting extremely mad to the point of wanting to leave the movie theater during the last Marvel movie I watched because they had a scene that was almost a serious, touching moment and just had to have a stupid fart joke immediately after because God forbid anyone experiences any kind of emotions in a movie.

I've been reading a lot of scripts lately. You know, it's a lot cheaper than going to the movies.

I feel like thats even a bit expensive for a ticket, but the small popcorn is 25$

For most movies the entire plot is usually given off in the damn trailer.

https://fmhy.pages.dev/ Remember kids, never pirate anything! Oh, hey, where did that link come from?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Where'd you get that? It was fmhy.ml, then fmhy.net due to TLD issues. Haven't seen the fmhy.pages.dev link yet.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

Ages ago from some asklemmy thread IIRC.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 3 days ago

You joke but there has been many movies (or games) that I just didn’t jive with but I still wanted to know how it ends.

The game soma was one of those, hated the survival horror but god damn that ending made an impact (even though I read it on Wikipedia).

[–] [email protected] 20 points 3 days ago

Once you've read the plot synopsis on Wikipedia, TVTropes -> Recap can fill in the finer details.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago

Learn about David Lynch`s workaround! Wikipedia editors hated him!

Meanwhile, if you're looking for a somewhat older movie, in my experience you can find it about half the time by going to the "videos" search tab in a browser, using any advanced search options that may exist on that browser to limit it to longer videos, and searching "(movie name) Internet Archive".

There is a third option…ARRRR

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Unless it's only theaters.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Isnt there like 99% of the time, there will be a home media release within 6 months?

Just be patient 😉

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

That's the point.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Sounds like you need a better plug

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

You just server hop. Sometimes, it leaks. Usually it doesn't. Usually it's a cam.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Like I said, sounds like you need a better plug. I've had the same three for over a decade.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 days ago (2 children)

I have no idea what arrrr means/refers to nor what you're talking about. The only plug I can think of is buttplug, but that's probably not what you're talking about.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 days ago

piracy. illegally watching movies for free, the way to defeat greedy streaming services. a plug is a slang term for dealer, so they mean the website you pirate from

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

A plug is a slang term that means source as in something you plug in to. For example, if you ever by chance figured out the direct host name of one of the servers that keeps getting rebranded over and over again, you can just directly browse its contents.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

I have no idea what you're talking about. Plug is slang for your provider. Are you speaking in metaphors?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

Plug as I defined above means the source. A provider is somebody that you pay.

I have a feeling you will continue to be confused but I'm not going to spell out what I'm doing.

Think of me as dexter

Holy shit that is the funniest, most arrogant thing I've read in a while. Lmao. Please, Hollywood insider, tell us more.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 days ago

If you weren't smart enough to put it together, I don't know what to tell you. Go back to school and ask for a refund?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

Sure, buddy, lmao. Unless you're posting or hosting, it's not true. Are you going to brag about living in Westwood next?
