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.

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...

Wreck-It Ralph 2: What Is Going To Happen?

The internet has been buzzing with sequels. First, it was the Jumanji movie, then we got a teaser trailer for Incredibles 2 , and now we have the first trailer for Wreck-It Ralph 2 . Their marketing team did an excellent job on getting everyone to talk about the first trailer release date and getting everyone excited about it. A lot was relying on this first trailer and from what I have seen so far. I don't think it's going to do well. The first movie was a well thought out movie with heart, a fantastic story and developing characters. It was the first of it's kind, combining video games into real life, in a way. What everyone loved about the first movies was the fact that it involved video games that so many people grew up with and loved. It also includes the story from the villain's perspective, who just wanted to be good. It made you feel happy inside and appreciate the good things in life. A perfect children's movie. Now the second has a lot of work to beat...
