I have NOT watched any movies in cinemas for the longest time. I do not support monopolies.
Every movie that comes out, regardless blockbuster or not, i will wait till it is available on other sources (streaming, free to air) then i will watch cause i prefer to watch a movie on my own terms, not dictated by a cinema over the snacks i can or cannot bring into the cinema, amongst other things.
Whether i support or like the movie or not is a different issue.
You can love a movie while having watched it free because the network that airs them pays the royalties to the makers of the film.
You don't have to pay money to support a movie or series
This is very different from respecting the whole crew that is involved in the production of the project. Just because i watch a movie or series free does not mean i do not support or respect the work that has gone into it.
Whether i watch it free or not, the crew will still be paid.
You can have your own self righteous thoughts on what i do is illegal or not. That is your right.
Does not mean you are correct.
