That's no way to water board a guy, you have to pour the beer around his face but not let him drink it, the guy in newb's sig is having a blast!
V, is it reality that we are trying to escape? That sounds like a rare scenerio to me, though I'm sure it is the case sometimes. I'm on my third whiskie drink, mixed for effect not flavor, so I'm getting good and deep, hang on.
Movies contain "magic', the same stuff NE was talking about. And that magic can make crazy things happen, things that you may have never considered possible, or still consider impossible. But one thing we can not forget about reality, about realism, is that truth is stranger than fiction (you may have heard that one before). At the movies however, we are safe and dry and fed, and can enjoy watching things happen to others, because we know an editor somewhere won't make us wait too long till it finally happens(in some cases). So yes, we all escape our own realities, our day to days (which may be boring compared to others) and enjoy a good story with adamant motion for our eyes to see. (Before movies and stage and puppets, people just repeated good stories. Stories that touch and teach and help us to escape when we need to, just like a Catholic Priest-Hay-yo!)
Shit I'm losing track. So I think we experience just as much reality at the movies as we do outside the theater, it just happens alot faster inside.
