now showing

i love watching movies...movies that are 26-in-one or maybe 12-in-one.
for short, i'm more interested on pirated dvd's (i am for copyright laws but i just can't help patronizing all the parades of pirated dvd's downtown...i know it's illegal but what can i do? the local government are not that strict when it comes to these violators)

the reasons why i prefer dvd's over moviehouse are as follows:

1. you get to watch 26 or maybe 12 movies, at most, with only 80 bucks compared to spending 90 for just a single show. thrifty i may sound but we should be practical : )

2. safety reasons. we all know the peace and order situation in our region, so, it's better and safer to stay at home than to be one of the possible victims of bombings.

3. sometimes i get irritated with the people who also happen to be watching the same movie as i am, especially when they scream at the top of their voices...i always end up asking, 'anu daw sabi ni (name of the artist)'...on the other hand, when you'll just watch it on your dvd players, the best side of it is that you get to rewind and go back again to the lines spilled by the artist : )

4. i can scream, shout, fall in love (or out of love), curse antagonists, praise protagonist-in short, if i'm home, i can do whatever i want since i will not consider the other people's reaction.

i concede to the fact that big screens are clearer, of good quality compared to pirated dvd's but on the other hand, i must take into considerations some factors that might somehow affect or change me at the end of the day.

  1. right!

    Though watching movies on big screens are clearer, but we have to be practical! haha

    I agree with you!
    There are some advantages on dvd's
    In addition, we can also skip, wind back and pause if we wish to!

    But then, in watching horror or suspense movies, I prefer to watch it on big screen in view of the fact that it is more electrifying!!!

    =))

  2. hehe.i also agree.
    although there are times that i would experience being "lugi" when buying pirated dvds because of the quality.It stops after every second.

  3. haha...I also prefer to buy pirated dvd's (to be practical). I agree with your reasons, why you prefer pirated dvd's over moviehouse but first before buying pirated dvd's you should check first the cd, because sometimes its quality is not good,sometimes its not clear.

  4. YUP! I totally agree with you!

    1. I'm thrifty too and I would rather buy a pirated cd than watching a movie once in a theater.

    2. I don't go to cinemas often for safety reasons. My mom and dad would tell me this and that...

    3. Yeah, I feel irritated too. I would like to tell them "shut up someone's watching here!". I would hear their screams rather than that of the lines actors/actresses do.

    4. I always do that at home late in the evening. When watching movies at home, you are privileged to make all the noise you want. :D

  5. I don't know if I'll agree or not for I've never yet watched movies in the big screen my whole life.
