Social Influences – Entertainment


The only few entertainments that people in the past had was reading, and going to the movies every once in a while, and they didn’t have the Internet. The people in the past usually go to the movies every week, since it’s one of their only few entertainments, and also the most popular. Going to the movies in the past are almost considered as a routine, everybody goes to the movies at the same day each week. The movie theater has only one screen, and they play just one movie. Movies don’t just serve as an entertainment to the people in the past; it also serves as a way to attain information. Some movie theaters in the past play some news before and after the movies, so the people can get a glimpse of news on the screen. Today, people still go to movies for entertainment, but people don’t always go routinely. The movie theaters nowadays have more than one screen, and play more than a dozen movies in a day. People can choose which movie they want to watch, or choose not to watch any at all. People now can choose to go home and use the Internet instead. People in the past depend heavily on the movies, because it’s their only entertainment. People nowadays have dozens of alternative entertainments to choose from other than movies, they have the Internet and the television. They can also choose to go to see ball games or shows.
