Movie Theater Issues and Problems

Movie theaters are meant to be loved and adored. They inspire imagination and creativity. They are a place for people to escape and create their own world. At the same, havens could have some problems and issues at hand. I will be discussing some prime matters that circulate movie theater environments. I would also like to add that this doesn't apply to every theater. There are very exquisite and organized theaters, but most have not lived up to that standard.

To start, movie tickets and concession prices. I understand that many theaters do not have the liberty to price their products due to restrictions, regulations, or the fact that they need to make a profit. Still, when you think about it, $14 for a bucket of popcorn is pretty crazy. This problem can lead to people pirating movies online and enjoying their $4 box of popcorns. Their prices are a problem that can cause people to be pushed away. If they can fix this pricing problem, they may be able to save themselves from the Internet.

The second problem is all our streaming options. As we move on into the advancements we have made with all the new and improving technology, we are not given even more opportunities and ways to watch movies. We are able to just search a movie online and watch a movie that is still in theaters. Sure it may not be the best quality, but it is a lot more comfortable and more accessible to watch from your bed or couch. The streaming options are giving us things that we don't have to spend too much money on.

The third and final problem is that fact that we have better quality of tv shows that are expanding. Most movies are becoming part of a series like Marvel movies or DC movies or are remakes. The variety of movies is growing repetitive. Tv shows are making their run and drawing in people for more. Especially with Netflix and Hulu, they are allowing people to binge watch and pick and choose as they go. It is all at their fingertips and that draws peoples attention.

Here is the movie lover's guide to current movies. Ready Player One Based on a book authored by Earnest Cline, Ready Player One is similar to the storyline of the Matrix, yet different enough to warrant its own attention. Taking place in a dystopian future, the movie finds the year 2045 filled with chaos and economic collapse. As a way to escape, the populace finds solace in a virtual reality world known as The Oasis created by an eccentric genius.

Five Family Movies That Will Bring Your Family Closer (Ezine #2)

Going to the movies can take on many roles, some of which are a bit more important to others. While most people might think that a movie being a cultural phenomenon or a movie of a generation might be pretty important, nearly everyone will discount how important family movies can be in general. Depending on who you ask, this may be more of a commentary on how society is changing, but it might just be that family movies are made for only some members of the family. Think about the last time you sat and watched a movie with your spouse and children. Was it animated? Were the parental figures just a bit too out of touch to seem real? Did the CGI overload make it hard to even look at the screen? As time has gone on, what makes for a family movie has really been more about making a movie that keeps a kids attention long enough to give Mom and Dad a breather. Whatever happened to the type of movie that made the family feel closer to each other? You know, the kind of movie that taught an

Edward Norton vs. Mark Ruffalo: The Hulk

Our superheroes have grown and become big names from Iron Man to Thor. Every superhero, who has a movie or is a supporting character, is known in the superhero universe. One age-old question within that universe involves the Incredible Hulk. This character's transformation has been an interesting one, to say nonetheless. We will be looking back and comparing the different Hulks. Edward Norton did a decent job at portraying the Hulk. This character isn't the easiest to play and does involve a lot of work. He definitely tried, but the storyline and character development didn't play in his favor. The timing of when the movie was released is also a playing a factor. This movie came out before the Marvel universe actually became a phenomenon. That didn't allow the studio and surrounding storylines to further his development. This movie was not a part of the growing universe but rather another superhero movie. Mark Ruffalo had a lot more background and information to work
