Movie Demographics
With Lois working in retail, meaning being left on my own on weekends more often, I've been hitting the multi-plex this year on a semi-regular basis. I tend to go to the earliest show on Sunday mornings to avoid the crowds. And I tend to save my $6.50/movie for those special effects offerings that take advantage of the sound systems and big screens. Up until last weekend, my viewing this season consisted of titles (listed with my rankings) aimed at the man-child I am...
Sin City (A+)
Kung Fu Hustle (B+)
Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy (B)
Kingdom of Heaven (A-)
Star Wars/Sith (B)
...but sometimes an "adult" movie will call to me as well. Last weekend it was Cinderella Man (A+). Howard and Crowe, together again with some fine work. Paul Giammati and Renee Zellwegger fine in it as well. Big Oscar contender all around.
One thing I did notice at the Cinderella Man showing (1:00PM on Saturday instead of my normal church-going hour show) was that I was a lot closer to the average age of attendee, if not below average. Given the usual films that I see in theatres, it's been quite a while since I've seen so much gray hair (to go along with mine) and so many canes and wheelchairs at the movies. A fair number of my fellow viewers might even have first-hand, childhood memories of Champion Jim Braddock in the 1930s.
I expect a shift back to my usual demographics for the next few movies I'm looking forward to...War of the Worlds, Batman Begins, and Fantastic Four. Definitely less gray hair.
