I can do one better I think -- I don't even know what movies you're referring to. Not having television means I don't see trailers. Unless I hear indirect "buzz" about something that might interest me films go by and I never notice or miss them. Doubtless I'm missing some proportion which I would really enjoy, but I don't have the interest or energy to keep up with such things.

I'm amused by how many people are shocked when they find out (in casual conversation) that I don't have television -- by choice! So many people can't picture living without it. Not that there's anything wrong with enjoying television, but I really didn't (or rather, wasn't willing to pay for the 1001 things besides the bits I would enjoy) and I frankly don't miss it.
