I haven't bought a movie ticket in years.

Now I am tempted.

I never had a Blackberry, but I utterly despise touch screen phones. I like physical buttons, preferably with shape and color to allow operating using peripheral vision. I used to use flip phones to actually talk to people. I use my Android phone for two factor authentication and not much else.

A rotary shoe phone would be better than today's "smart" phones.

Now you've got me wanting to watch that movie. I don't know why BlackBerry ultimately disappeared. I held onto mine as long as I could and absolutely detest the onscreen virtual keyboards of Android/Apple. I just chalked it up to the whole pattern of, whatever is good gets made obsolete by some godawful new tech while whatever is most annoying becomes ubiquitous.
