Theater or DVD

Ya know, I used to think that I was the only one that did this, but i am begining to think more and more people are doing this and I wonder what the impact will be on the movie industry years down the road.
I NEVER go to a theater any more...... I mean that too. Honestly, it has easily been over 10 years since I have actually gone to a movie theater to watch a first run movie (or any movie for that matter) and i feel ok with it. I have no need to to spend the kind of money they are asking just to sit in uncomfortable seats, eating soggy pop corn and drinking flat soda when i can wait a few months, rent or buy it on DVD, get to watch it in comfort eating and drinking what I like and have the ability to pause the show to talk during it (or if a member of my family decides its time to explain the finer plot points in detail with everyone else LOL) if i feel like it. Not only that but the DVDs are jammed with special features a shorts that are very interesting. I recently bought the incredibles and the best part of it was Jack Jack Attack on the special features, and if ya watched that movie in the theaters you didnt see it.
