Pass the microwave popcorn: Poll says we prefer movies at home

WASHINGTON — Like many Americans, Mark Gil prefers the low cost and high convenience of staying home to watch movies.
"You can go rent a movie for three bucks, but by the time you're done at the movie theater with sodas and stuff, it's 20 bucks," said Gil, a mortgage broker from Central Square, N.Y.Three-fourths of Americans say they would just as soon watch a movie at home, an AP-AOL poll found. With people more inclined to think movies are getting worse, it's no wonder Hollywood is having problems filling theaters.
