So after reading the lists at Eternity of Dream , The Dark of the Matinee and Cinematic Paradox about 100 things they love about movies I decided to make a list of 50 things I don’t like about movies, moviegoing and the culture (100 things would be a stretch and would probably result in some weaker entries) :
1. Classics hardly are shown in the cinema
2. Steroscopic 3D (read that holographic 3D might solve normal 3D issues, although it possibly can’t be scaled to cinema size)
3. People talking (or basically doing anything resulting in them not paying attention and annoying others) in the cinema during a film
4. Knowing that I won’t be able to see all the great movies that have ever been made
5. People that refuse to watch a movie because it’s in black and white
6. Trying to stay spoiler free, but accidentally reading or hearing something which kind of ruins your enjoyment as you know what will happen
7. Movies which are out of print and can only be bought for extreme high prices on ebay (like My Sassy Girl director’s cut)
8. Anti-Piracy warnings on DVD. I already bought the thing, why can’t I just immediately watch the movie and have to wait until the menu appears as the warnings can’t be skipped?
9. Falling asleep during a very interesting movie just because I’m that tired
10. Knowing I won’t be able to finish watching a film because I really have to get up early the next morning.
