Why Does It Suck To Go To The Movies?

What this episode covers

Does it suck going to the movies? Or do the movies just suck? This summer had terrible box office numbers and the worst attendance in 25 years! But why? Was it the robots that turn into cars for the 5th time? Johnny Depp as a pirate AGAIN? Spider Man rebooted for the 3rd time? Or is it that more interesting movies just don't get enough advertising? Or maybe that bad early reviews kept people from taking a chance on a film? Or are people just finding it easier (and cheaper) to stay home on the sofa and watch movies on HBO/Netflix/Hulu/onDemand/etc.? This week, we take a look at movies that came out from June to August of this year and talk about why going to the movies was a total bummer this summer.
