I try to go to the movies once a month or sometimes maybe every other month.

We go once a week if something good is playing.

I prefer watching movies at home with my family. We buya  large bowl of pop corn, make the room dim and switch on the t.v. I enjoy that better than going to the movies. It is also like killing two birds with one stone, cos it is alos a bonding time for the family

I don't think I've been to a movie theater in 30 years.  It is so expensive now but I loved to go when I was little and it was much cheaper.  with Netflix and big screen home tv's, I also like watching movies at home.

Hardly ever anymore.  It's cheaper just to watch a movie at home.  With today's ticket prices plus food you can buy the film and watch it as many times as you want at home.

Movies are expensive but when we do go out I make sure we maximize the experience.

Not ad much as before. If it's a move my husband and I really want to see then we'll splurge. Otherwise, we'll wait and go to the dollar movie.

I probably go once a week. There are always cheaper options to go...dollar theaters, discounted movie passes, etc. It's a nice getaway.

I haven't been to see a movie since 2008.

I can be precise because the last movie I went to see was the Star Wars cartoon "The Clone Wars" which I thought was positively dreadful... and the last straw when it came to RUDE theatergoers. All I could see in front of me were phone screens and people all around me were talking as if they were sitting in a coffee shop.

One can only imagine how much WORSE it's gotten since then what with the rise of smartphones!

I go to the movies whenever a movie comes along that I definitely want to see on the big screen and pay that type of money. For me, those movies come out only about every other month or so.  Luckily, I have found a small theatre near me that only charges $4.00 on certain days/times.  Problem is, it isn't an IMAX.  Sometimes I just have to see it at an IMAX!!!

Once every few months, it seems.

We never go for 2 reasons, one it is so so expensive here in Las Vegas.  Last time I went was about 10 years ago and we paid 55 dollars for 2 people just for the tickets.  Secondly I really do not care for movies, I would rather watch tv shows.  I rarely ever watch a movie even on tv.  I watch a movie maybe 2 times a year.

We only go a few times. Things have got too expensive to afford anymore. :monkey:

Post by: catherinedwhite on May 13, 2017, 06:36:15 am
It averages out to about once a month. Some months we may got a couple times, some months not at all. It all depends on what is playing.

Twice a month.

We don't have a set time to go, but we go whenever something is playing that we want to see.

Hardly ever, think things like netflix and pureflix and so on have had a big effect on that, having said that, when my mother was still alive, and I was watching sport and said I'd like to be there, her reply was you can see more on TV. That's true, with close up camera, one can, but one word atmosphere, sometimes can't beat that, so nothing like family night out at movies, if can afford it all, eh.

Once every couple of weeks if there is something good playing.

I use to go all the time but then it got too expensive and now there really have not been too many good movies out for along time.

I probably go at least twice a year. The movies that have been coming out lately have been atrocious. That certainly factors into my minimal movie visits.
Title: Re: how often do you go to the movies
Post by: ccandpam on May 16, 2017, 06:40:21 am
Maybe once a month. We have Netflix and Hulu and Satellite TV which we have at home, so waste gas and go out. :)

I never go. It has been about 14 years. I was thinking that I might stop in the local theater and catch a day movie while I was out as a treat for myself. My husband would never go and if he found out, he'd use that as a reason for him to spend money for years to come. I could never get away with him not finding out if I had gone because I'd screw around and talk about the experience in some way.

Only once a month

I really do not go to movie theaters that's why I'm always disqualified in every surveys regarding movie.

I do not go the movie theaters very often. I only go once in a while. I mainly watch movies at home so I can enjoy the night at home.

Lately, I have been going to the movie at least once every other month.

Post by: Laurieandjohn on May 23, 2017, 11:06:52 pm
I prefer watching them at home also because it is hard to sit in one place as long as a movie is on  at least at home I can move around and stretch my legs
