Lost for words

Some people believe that the era of the silver screen is coming to an end and most of the people are losing intrest in going to the cinemas.

For several reasons I totally agree with this opinion in my country’s conditions.First of all it’s because of all this new technologies, nowadays most of the people have satellite access in there homes with dozens of various channels, in some of this channels you can find free movies to watch each night whereas you can also see any movie that you want on DVDs, even with this new HD-DVD (wiki) and Blu ray DVDs (wiki) you have so many options that you will never find in theaters. If you have high speed access to internet you can even download whatever you want from the net.

In addition, seeing movies in home is more convenient, first of all you don’t have to go out and you can enjoy “any” movie with your friends wile you lay down on your coach. And also in Iran’s case you can watch the full version of the movies, at last it’s cheaper to see movies in your home, mostly because you don’t have to waste money on transportation, somehow in most cases it’s cheaper even purchasing a DVD or CD than buying a single ticket and you can even borrow movies from your friends and watch them for free!

So with above reasons I think too that the silver screen era is coming to an end but I also don’t think it will overthrow, mostly because it will be always fun to see movies in theaters.
