The Boyfriend Episodes 7-8 Review: With the last few weeks left, cast members pursue their feelings. Where some get reciprocated and some get rejected.
I for one, love this idea. The purpose behind it being that those with disabilities who cannot attend a movie theater, can still enjoy the latest movies in a timely manner.
Lots of people won't use it for that purpose, but I don't think it's going to hurt theaters as much as people think. Seeing things on the big screen and the whole movie theater experience is entirely different.
That's actually a pretty good idea. I mean I can see this being really helpful when school term starts up again and I won't have as much time to go to the movies. Though I agree with the last few lines. Movies are best viewed in the theaters on the big screen though the high priced snacks are something to which can be debated :p.
