Catching Up on Movies

Do you consider yourself a fan of movies? Whether it's horror flicks, action, adventure, romance, comedy - if you're a fan of one or all of those genres, then you can probably call yourself a movie lover. As for myself, yes, I do enjoy certain movies. However, it's been at least five years since I last stepped foot in a theater. So more often than not, when there's a movie I'd like to see, I either have to go rent it or wait for it to show up on TV. Over those past five years, I've missed a lot of good movies, I figure. I think the last movie I went to see was the re-launch of the Batman series in 2005. I had planned on going to see "The Dark Knight" a few years ago but never made it. Hopefully now I'll get an opportunity to catch up.

My cable TV bill went up $30 last month - so I made a call to my cable company to see if I could get a better bundle package. My bundle was only for a year, and it began when I moved into my house. Needless to say, it had expired, which was why the bill went up $30. So I called to see if I could get a better deal, which now the new bundle package is expected to last until 24 months. I was able to get the same price as I had before, but now with both HBO and Cinemax movie channels.

I had Cinemax before and I was never all that impressed with the showing of movies they had on their assorted channels. I could never find anything all that interesting to watch and they featured a lot of older films. My parents had all of the HBO movie channels at their house and it seemed like I could find something on those channels to watch. So hopefully, instead of being bored by the usual channels on my basic line-up, I can flip channels over to the movie side and try to catch an interesting flick on there. As I mentioned, I have a good five years of catching up to do.
