I disagree. Paying $25 for a family of 4 and having the added bonus of not putting up with theater bullshit (e.g. ridiculous candy prices and asshole people) seems like a damn good deal.

Nobody’s making you buy candy. And people at the theaters actually aren’t that bad.
If PVOD rentals were still in theaters you’d have a point, and that applies for the movies mentioned in the articles. But most movies on PVOD are out of the theaters.

Way to miss the point. Name a place where a family of 4 can get 4 tickets to a current movie for $25. It’s not happening. They’re saying that for them, $25 is a fucking steal compared to the theatre experience just on price alone, BEFORE you even consider snacks and other people.

Why are you comparing PVOD to theaters lol it’s more similar to physical media and streaming services

I dunno, my 65 inch TV and 5.1 surround sound system, along with adjustable lighting, begs to differ. Just cus your system sucks doesn’t mean everyone’s does.
