Hate Movie Theatres but Love Movies? Transformers has you Covered!

by Chozoman, filed in Movies, TV on Jun.22, 2007

Sticky floors, overpriced snacks, pre-pubesant pukes yakkin’ it up…It may all be a thing of the past, and Michael Bay’s “Transformers” is leading the charge!

Check out this tasty tidbit from Uberpulse.com

For an entry fee of $49, you could be watching Transformers… on opening day… in your undies with a cold beer on Pay-Per-View. Incredible news, and well overdue in my opinion. If theatre managers can’t foster a clean, quiet atmosphere for viewing a film, an alternative would be created that could. As expected, movie theatre insiders are up in arms, but as Galvatron said in the original Transformers: The Movie, “We all must die sometime.”

Update: Michael Bay’s site Shoot For The Edit has squashed this as completely false. In Bay’s own words: “Total Bullshit”

I know a couple people with such badass sound and video setups that this would be pretty awesome.

If I had a setup like that, I’d be all over this. I hate waiting in long lines just to sit with some big ol’ dude taking the whole armrest from me. I always end up waiting at least a week for the crowds to die down when I want to see a big movie.

“We all must die sometime.”

Hahahahaha

For almsot $50 a pop, I at first thought they’d be safe, but as I thought about it, someone with a nice, large-screen TV could easily get four or more of their friends to show up, charging them $10 a pop for the privilege.

49$? Are you God damned kidding me? Do I get to keep a copy? This is like… 10x more than normal PPV for what, timing? Is it even going to be in HD?

Also they’ve actually stopped showing previews in some theatres in Canada to combat piracy and now they’re doing this right into people’s video outputs? Jesus.

With all due respect to my fellow poweteer who obviously have a huge hate on for going to the theatre I think the solution should be simultaneous home video and rental and not this… farce.

But ponder this aDam, if you can get 5 people to watch at your house, $10 each, you’re covered. Shit you could actually host a small group and turn a profit.

$50, huh? To borrow yet another TFTM quote, “me Shwiggie no see nothing!” Even if I had a hidef setup, that’s more than it’s worth.

But like anything else that passes through my television I want to keep, I’d have it recorded and on DVD very soon.
