If you are a movie fan, you know the long wait between the announcement of a film project, to the trailer coming out and eventually hitting the big screen can seem like an eternity. Of course there are many films you can watch in the meantime, but none of them will live up to the excitement of watching a new movie when it comes out. If you're struggling to pass the time until the latest big blockbuster is released, here are three alternative ways to stay entertained online that cost about the same as a movie rental:
Play a casino game
Whether it’s "Oceans Eleven" or one of the many 'James Bond' films, casinos have always been a popular setting for movie screenwriters. It's the place they choose to show either how wealthy a baddie is or how brave and lucky the hero of the story is. It';s also the place they decide when they want the most glamorous atmosphere possible. You might think that playing these games means you need as much money as these wealthy bad guys you see with the big evil entourages in the films. But you can start playing online with just a few dollars to deposit in your account. What's even better is that many casino websites will give you more money to play with to open an account. You can find lots of casino bonus codes online, which could see you even double whatever you deposit. Free playing chips from the house is a deal that even 'James Bond' is never offered in the big films.
Buy
tickets to a live gig
Instead of watching something heavily scripted and edited, why not watch something a lot more raw. Many musicians, comedians, and even actors perform live online streams that fans can watch from their homes. The great thing about these performances is they're often a lot cheaper than if you were going to watch them at a theater or concert venue. You also don't have to sit in a cramped seat, stand up for hours or even queue to get a drink or go to the bathroom. More and more artists are choosing to perform this way, so no matter what you're into, you'll be able to find a performance you can stream live.
Order a hobby kit online
You
can now buy many things online to keep you entertained while you
spend some time away from your gadgets. For example, if you're into
cooking and baking, you can order a recipe box straight to your door with all the ingredients and
instructions you need to try a new recipe. If you fancy being a bit
more creative, you can even find kits to help you build, paint, or
create new things as well. These online kits are a great and
affordable way to try a new hobby without buying all of the tools and
lots of kit separately.
