The way that I see it, there are several reasons why one would choose, difinitively, to see a particular movie:
1) The actor or actress playing the lead (or potentially even a minor/supporting role...), you have fallen in-love with (whether or not you are the same sex as this actor),
2) The theme or plot of the movie is more than just interesting to you,
3) You may be enchanted with whomever has directed or written the movie and you feel as though you can't get enough of his or her movies...
4) The fact that you've been drawn into the oh-so-clever-ploy of watching the prequil or prequils that will make this movie all the more appealing and understandable (and now you feel a moral obligation to finish watching the movies in said series; regardless!),
or 5) The time of the playing of the movie or the location of the movie or possibly even the fact that you are being rushed to quickly choose a rental movie and then get out of the store!
Do you have more reasons? What are they? (I suppose you could include a reason like--Your loved one chose it and you WILL watch it with them [whether you would have chosen this particular movie or not]...)

Lately, I've been watching movies because they are on TV and sometimes I'm stuck in front of the TV. That's it. Sad. But in the theater, I think you've covered it. Perhaps because it's a specific genre, say kids shows, and I want to take the kids to it. Or a chick flick, and the girls want a girls night out.
