Normal PVR. Imax is quite far from my home. Must be this one only. And I have been avoiding theaters as well. Used to go for all major movies before Covid, but since last few years, I have only been to theaters like 5-6 times, that's it. I don't know why, it seems like a hassle to me rather than going there to relax and chill. Maybe I have been lazy or just do not find time. But I can easily wait 6-8 weeks to watch. Ticket prices, in all honesty I believe are fair. Everything has become expensive, ticket prices are on par. Like 200-300 rs. Ticket for a normal non Imax theater is fair IMO. What is surprising, is that earlier we used to think meal prices were exorbitant, but at those times it was 250-300 per pop corn/Nachos. 90-100 rs for a small Pepsi. Now 300-400 rs for a small Pepsi! Still got 250 Rs. Belgian fries as it only sold at PVR and it has been long time for me. In contrast, ticket pice was 200 + 30 Rs.

First & Foremost….cloud isn’t really a hardware. Secondly….they are obviously not going anywhere as they have invested close to a hundred billion just in acquisitions. They have already indicated they are partnering with other OEMs for hardware. But they are definitely quitting the proprietary platform business…meaning it won’t matter to them if the consumer is consuming their product through Steam,Playstation,Nintendo or Epic or any other. If these platforms allow GamePass today then they will be more than happy to strike a deal. But these platforms just won’t…coz they earn through royalty in sales & some have their own services.

Watching a FD movie in a theatre and having fun while at it, u seemed super bored Absolutely PVR and Inox is good here, but yes, ad sound and ad duration was insane. Yup, i go once in a while when misus wants 2, otherwise my type of movies come rarely (like transformers, avtar, them big a*s movies), I have now left those stupid a*s franchises to see theatre, like those of fast n furious n sheet, completely ho,e viewing of such money grabbers

I think even the hardware/platform would stay, maybe in a different form factor- cloud/handheld/pc/mac or just another new console. I think Microsoft will dig their heels in and wait out the competition , they may not come first, but they’ll still remain relevant for long time in the gaming business ( unless some investors convince the board to sell off the gaming division like they did their mobile division to focus only on their other enterprise business) !
