Anyone else that does not enjoy the moviegoing experience?

I can not put my finger on it but sometime in my early 20's I just stopped going to movie theaters, no noticable reason.

I doubt I went to one at all in my 30's. It wasn't tied to the jacked up prices or anything just lost interest- do not even play them on the VHS/DVD recorder do not even have a Blockbuster or other account- but I do watch them from time to time on TV.

I will say my dates became much more fun when I skipped the formulaic dinner and a movie paridigm and 'did things'.

Enamored of, not "enamored with." Thanks.

re: 3 cute registered names later.

I go to about 1 movie a year usually when I am on vacation. I have no interest in seeing movies either. I read about the stars in the newspaper (and internet) but couldn't tell you what half of them look like. Fiction just does not interest me in movies or books.

I go to the movie theater frequently to just escape. It's a waste to go to a theater for a date. I'm like you. I would much rather do something when I go out.

My last movie theater experience was August 1995. My wife has attended only two movies since that time. Fortunately, neither of us find movie theaters enjoyable. We mainly prefer watching them in the comfort of home. For dates, we prefer spending time outdoors together hiking, cycling, kayaking or just enjoying a picnic.
