Pretty sure that's 'The Davinci Code', but I could be wrong.

I haven't been to the theatre since early 2000, myself. It became far too expensive after that. It was fine while I was trying to make a good impression on a lady, but it's not worth it now. Not when it costs $30 for a seat, and $10 for bad popcorn.

My home theatre system has definitely paid for itself a hundred times, since then.

OMG! Don't even get me started on that! Another way that my home theatre has paid for itself! (o_-)
