I think the whole point of this is that yes, it is at the same time as Cinema release.
Even then its overpriced.
The whole point of paying for a cinema ticket is like, you know, the CINEMA!
That huge IMAX screen? Don’t know about you but I certainly don’t have one in my house.
You would have to have three friends round to watch it to make it worth doing at all, and then you really would be better off going to the cinema.

yup same here if it is while the movie in theater the rental works for me and my family. if it comes out after the movie leaves the theater then chances are I wasn’t interested enough and I can wait for the DVD.

Agreed. Renting a movie for $20-$30 just doesn’t make any sense to me.

The only way I might pay $30. would be if the movie was available the same day as the theater release, or even a week or 2 later. Otherwise it’s a way overpriced rental.
