    My son is HUGE cinephile, but he has stopped going to theaters. They are far too expensive, and there aren’t even enough good movies to justify their monthly pass.

    So he just pirates everything, which I fully support 100%. He’s a Pirate Nepo-Baby.

      We used to have a great cinema where I live. They pioneered the living room theater experience. The top two rows in each theater were 21+, waiters came around to take your order. Full restaurant service, reasonably priced.

      Then the owner got greedy and tried to do an IPO. AMC bought it all in a hostile takeover. Now it’s another janky theater.
