Everything you said, I have nothing to add about movies. Practically anything that wins an award is an original movie.

But I will add on with complaints about movie theaters. The price of popcorn? If you can get through a movie at home without popcorn, you don't have to buy any at the theater! Crowded/noisy theaters? If you're waiting for it to stream anyway, then you don't have to watch it opening weekend because theaters have way lower turnout than pre-2020! Can't pause it for a bathroom break? Alright, I can agree this is an issue with longer and longer movies and the compulsion to buy 64oz of soda, but listen, I've peed in so many movies and never missed any life-changing events.

But I guess it's a cool bandwagon or something.

    You can make movie theater popcorn at home, it's really easy and cheap.

    Buy some flavacol or "butter flavored fine grain salt" some people swear by the flavcol brand, but I don't notice a difference. Then make your popcorn in an oil popper and sprinkle on the flavocol. You can also buy the butter oil now too that they use.
