The Academy Awards is on tonight. I haven’t seen a single one of the films that are being nominated. I frankly can’t afford to spend $10 – $15 per person to go see a movie in the theaters any more. I don’t go to the movies alone, so my out of pocket is anywhere from $20 to $40 for two of us to see one movie. They charge extra for 3D movies, and all the new movies seem to be coming out in a 3D version.

It will be interesting to see which movies win the Oscars tonight. I’m looking forward to watching most of them – when they come out on DVD.
