Anonymous Coward User ID: 8758045 United States 01/18/2012 07:28 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Is it possible to organize a 1 month boycott of movies and music So no going to the movies, no buying music in stores or online, no netflix, no buying movies, etc for a solid month.
Would people get behind this?
And if the 1 month boycott didn't get their attention, then have another for 6 months, then 1 year, etc until OUR money gets a chance to speak. |

Most are crummy remakes anyway or special effects with no plot an wooden acting.
Same with TV.
Life is too short to waste absorbed in either. |

I think most people stopped going to the movies years ago. Something about all the death and alien propaganda, along with vampires and other types of programming. Music has turned into garbage except for the songs you never hear on the radio. I wish you luck. I must have felt what you want to do, simply because I got away from the noise years ago. Amy |

Or as in this case wallet, which shouldn't be much of a problem since most people are broke and lack of quality movies. |

It seems like you just wanted to brag about abstaining from entertainment. I don't have a problem with abstaining, but it really seems totally irrelevant to my post. |
