More and more people just wait for Amazon Prime/Netflix/ Redbox (etc.) movie releases to avoid the costs and hassles of taking the family to the theater. Hell, I miss Drive-In theaters, and I think that indoor theaters will eventually become obsolete. In time.

I thought it was a good movie, but the theater wasn't packed for a Friday night. It certainly wasn't horrible. {nm} pennystocks2 Dec 23, 02:20

How dare women be brave and heroic and make good strategic plans that men screw up by blabbing to the enemy? {nm} BSmurf Dec 23, 12:50

Most fans love it. It’s only a small percentage of particularly vocal ones that can’t acdept anything outside the box {nm} vadym Dec 24, 00:33

The movie was awful. Star Wars movie or not. {nm} Prophecy Dec 23, 16:05

My wife and I watched it last night—to a full theater, and we were blown away! Visually stunning, humorous and solemn in equal measure. All HollywoodTycoon61 Dec 23, 17:52
