Today,there are many,and I mean MANY possibilities for watching movies.You can do it the "old" way,by going to the cinema,you can watch movies on the TV,on the computer,on the tablet and even on your mobile phone!
Personally,my list of frequency of movies goes like this:the most movies I watch are on the PC,TV comes next and last but not least,the cinema.I really like the cinema experience,but it happens to me not to have enough money.

I quite often fall asleep while watching a movie. So I watch the TV and use the computer at the same time...of course, I sometimes miss parts of the movie.
I also watch a lot of movies on my portable DVD player next to my bed. This ensures that I go off into a deep sleep very quickly. It sometimes takes me two weeks to watch a whole movie. Lot's of times I give up and watch it on the TV.
I've watched a couple of movies on my laptop but I find it boring. I don't like to sit and do nothing.

Hi Okta, nowadays i prefer to watch movies from my home. It is more easy and cheaper to watch at home. Because that i don't have to worry about my child while i am watching movie. Because he can get busy with his favorite toys while we watching movie. Even nowadays the ticket price in my area is rising higher. So, it is really very expensive to watch movie in the cinema. That's why, i always prefer to watch movie at home through DVD disk or sometimes through online as well.

I like to watch movies... I usually watch here in my computer...but if the movie is something is something big like The Avatar or the Batman movies...For sure I have to watch it in the big screen!

I love to watch movies as a sort of relaxation after a hard days work from the office or at home. I love suspense, action, love story, and animal stories movies either to the cinema with my family and friends or on our TV at home. Just recently, I'm into watching telenovela every night with my family which we tried not to miss every episode. Thanks to this kind of movies I find it less expensive and entertaining.

Well I have many options on where to watch movies. One way is thru streaming from the Internet. The other is outside movie theater. This happens by way of lighting tiki torches around us so we won't get attacked by little bugs that carry diseases. Then he loads the projector with whatever movie I want to see and we sit outside with our movie snack and drinks and we enjoy the movie. Sometimes we get called upon and the police come to our house and talk to us. We don't get in trouble but we just have to keep down the noise.
Next is thru my iPhone and the computer. Sometimes I get free newly released movies on my iPhone which I love!
I don't really like the cinema bcuz the food is always old and the seats are horrible but when I see my sisters we all go out to eat and go see a matenai or catch up on our lives : )

When I was in college I love to watch the latest movies in cinemas, it is one of my hobbies after our examination, it's the way i treat myself. But as of now, I am more into watching tv, if I have time and less work online, I manage to watch it on my pc. We only watch movie with my family if we have extra budget for that, as you can see it is too expensive nowadays. :)

Even though we already have internet and DVDs now a days. I still manage to go to the theaters and watch some movies. It's really different when you watch it on the big screen with friends and loved ones. Having other people react to the movie adds the excitement specially if it is a horror movie. I also love sharing my food with friends during a movie bonding with them.

It's been a while since I went to the theaters. I just find it hard to spare the time and money since I'm a freshman in college and looking for a part time job. The past few years I've watched movies like thor and the avengers online while the rest I just wait for them to start showing on T.V, the last movie I saw at the theaters was clash of the titans I watched it together with my grandfather since he was a fan of the original clash of the titans.

I watch movies at the theaters, or I watch them at home on my television. Sometimes, I do watch them on my computer, but that isn't very often.

Hi,
Funny, but I cannot remember the last time I was in a real cinema, with tickets, a wide theater, supersize screen, darkness, ultra-stereo and a date, of course. Was that, ten, fifteen years ago? I have begun to suspect that cinemas are things of the past, but then, it was I who made it so. Of course, they are still there, on the malls for buildings dedicated to cinemas are now converted to other commercial uses here.
I should try to be on one someday, my only apprehension is that things may be a little different than it was then, like, how should I say "good evening" inside when it was broad daylight outside?

I like to watch movies too. I watch like 5-6 movies a week. Usually it is my laptop on which I watch. For the latest movies which interest me, I visit cinema halls. Good day!

I usually watch movies on the TV. But if I had money and the time, I'd rather watch it at theaters. I feel very relaxed when I go to the movies.

I prefer watching movies on my pc. Aside from being cheap because I download movie on the internet for free, I want to watch them with subtitles for I can understand the movie well. It's not that I cannot understand english, it's just sometimes hard to understand the speaker hehehe.. Ofcourse, I'm going to need subtitles for other foreign language. Another thing is that I get to review first the movie before I download it. On cinemas, we don't have the luxury to do so that's why sometimes we go home unsatisfied when the films not that good as expected. Watching movie is my hobby, everytime I have a free time. When I don't have a free time, I make one just to watch :D.

I usually watch the movie by TV. Go to the theater sometimes waste lots of time. Watch on the Internet cost alot. TV is the best solution in my opinion. How about you gúy ???
