Ah, the good old days!!! For a mere thin dime, I remember the wonderful, great days when I could go to a movie theatre, see a couple cartoons, news reels of current events, a weekly, cliff hanging serial, a "B" movie and then the feature presentation. What happened to those days??????

C'mon Joe, not that OLD lol but glad to be your friend. Have a great weekend. jackkcharl@aol.com
you must be an old bugger like me. those were good times. thanks sjd
greed, pure and simple. greed by movie companies, actors, theaters, ect. you used to be able to make a movie for way less then a lead actor gets paid nowadays. and the newer actors just cant hold a candle to people like jimmy stewert, john wayne and so many others
Yeah, they were great times. Filled with raging polio, rampant racism, mob-controlled police, the start of hyper inflation, workers dying in crappy factories, etc., etc.
The good old days weren't all that good.
And you could sit in the theater all day and see it all twice more.
What happened was television and advertising.
