The JustAnotherGen DUmmy starts off with a question about a new Michael Keaton movie. Movies cost money and JustAnotherGen wants to make a wise choice and not just throw away her dollars budgeted for entertainment. I can't blame her.

Bird Man? The Michael Keaton flick
Anyone see it? We are trying to choose between this and Top Five which just opened.
We want to laugh today!
http://www.democraticunderground.com/12701345DUmmy bigwillq checks in and gives a hearty endorsement for
Bird Man.

3. Brilliant.
Thought it was fantastic. Great on all technical levels. Great performance by Keaton.
It sounds like bigwillq was happy to part with a few bucks for the chance to be entertained by the fantastic new Keaton movie.
The low post count yallerdawg expresses an interest in the movie but can't go to see it just now. It wouldn't be sensible since yallerdawg feels that he has gone a little over budget on entertainment lately.

4. Batman to Birdman.
---snip snip---
I haven't seen Birdman yet - still recovering from the cost of final 3D RealD Imax Hi Speed Hobbit movie, both financially and time-wise (I didn't fall asleep because it was SO LOUD!) - but I wonder if Birdman touches on this successful generational redo in any way?
Then bigwillq tells this low post count newbie what a sucker he is for paying money for movies when they are as free as the air and sunshine.

5. Are you against watching movies
at home from a free on-line site?
The movies are uploaded, most from a "screeners copy".
This is how I watch most movies.
Not sure about the legality of the site, but it does save me money and time. I am free to watch at my leisure. I often start a movie, watch some of it, and then watch the rest the next time I have some free time.
Watched the rest of "Wild", and Foxcatcher, Birdman and No Good Deed this way yesterday.
Not sure about the legality of the site? If you are watching a recent movie and you are not paying for it or you are not having to sit through periodic commercial advertisements, then you are stealing it.
I poked around the democrat underground movie group a little more and the dirty thief bigwillq popped up again. This time in a thread about a new movie called
The Imitation Game with Benedict Cumberbatch. Again bigwillq thought it was a great movie, just not good enough to pay for.

11. I thought it was outstanding.
Cumberbatch was fantastic.
DUmmy Callmecrazy gives a ringing endorsement for
The Imitation Game and the new Clint Eastwood movie
American Sniper. Well, maybe not a ringing endorsement since Callmecrazy wasn't willing to spend money on it.

13. I watched from my sofa...
What a great movie.
After that I watched American Sniper. Another good movie. Great performance by Bradley Cooper, but the ending was kind of abrupt.
You can find a lot of great movies for free at this site:
[I deleted what was most certainly the name of a crooked website]. Go to the boxoffice pull down and browse all the available films.

14. I watch a lot of movies that way:
From my couch!
But I watch on a different site.
Watched Boyhood last night and started Wild today but didn't finish.
LOVED BOYHOOD!
I disliked the ending to American Sniper and I hated Sienna Miller. Thought it was good but not great. Cooper was outstanding.
Thought it was good but not great, huh? Not worth your money?
Dirty thieving POS DUmmy.
