   Are you so dumb you can't read?

   I'm the one who said go to the theatre and you're the one who said    
   download the movie.. You're contradicting and arguing with yourself,    
   dumbass.

   Nobody cares what movies you like and go to. I wasn't talking about Star    
   Trek or movie trailers.   
      
   You said:   
      
   >>>>>> "Plenty of sources to download a copy for free, and if it appeals   
   >>>>>> to you, you go to the theater."   
   >>   
      
   Are you capable of understanding what you wrote? Apparently not, dumb    
   shit. And I pointed out how stupid you are by replying:   
      
   >>   
   >>>>>>>> Why waste money to see something you've already seen?  Just go   
   >>>>>>>> to the damn theatre and make up your mind.   
       
      
   But you're so goddamned stupid you can't understand that or apparently    
   anything else.
