In reply to the discussion: When was the last time you went to a movie theater? [View all]NurseJackie
(42,862 posts)28. We enjoyed the matinees also...
... that's how it started with us. We stopped going to the evening shows (too late, too many people, other annoyances) then we went to the matinees only. Then we'd only go to the older "dollar movies" or the "ale-house" 2nd-run theaters. Then we replaced our VHS with a DVD ... then we got a large flat-screen from Costco... then someone bought us a Roku.
Well... that's how it happened.
