Sop stories are cheap and have a reliable audience. Given that Hollywood refuses to give a decent budget to anything that isn't a remake, sequel or superhero movie, that they're following a predictable template with the minor things isn't surprising.

I usually watch foreign films. I like watching South Korean films and some old Hong Kong films. Even Hollywood remakes film from overseas. The Departed was a remake of a Hong Kong Film called Infernal Affairs. Crap Hollywood is doing another remake of the Ring called Rings. Hollywood doesn't care about good movies because creative accounting makes sure they never really lose money.

I share your hated for commercials. I personally don't really watch anything new. I have an awesome vhs, DVD, and blu Ray collection of mostly old movies (40s to 90s).

You know there are multiple sites that stream movies and shows for free? No downloads required.

I watch old movies. There's been nothing worth buying an admission ticket in years.

Mad max: fury road was the last movie I saw in theatres. Have to say it was well worth it

I saw Chocolate when it came out. That as about it for me.

I watched to Catch a Thief the other night. Cary Grant, Princess Grace Kelly. Great watch. Today I have The Great Escape and Bullitt to watch. And if there is STILL football shit on, Le Mans. Steve McQueen Sunday.

Isn't that such a great movie? I had such a crush on Grace Kelly after the first time I watched it. I've watched the Great Escape with my grandfathers, too. It was awfully long, and maybe a little formulaic, but still a good watch.

That's why I love Alamo Drafthouse. Saw Bullitt on 35mm a couple of years ago, while drinking Bullit Rye, and only paid $6 for the ticket, IIRC.

Trainspotting 2, was the last one I've seen.

I saw Chocolate. I'm a sucker for a decent movie and especially a romance with a happy ending.
