Today, it can be quite easy to rely on progress in technology to get what you want when you want it, all without ever leaving the comfort of your own home. Unfortunately, even something as cool and exciting as a date night movie has fallen victim to this inherently lazy way of living life.

A date night, along with a date night movie, are made for you to do more than just sit at home and stream something you can watch. It also gave you the chance to spend some time with someone special, have a bite to eat, take a walk on the beach, anything really. Instead, we “veg” at home and use game console controllers to navigate the menus of our subscription-based programming. While you may claim that living doesn’t get that much sweeter, the truth is it does, and you’re missing out on a lot.

So take a second and look back on your latest movie date night adventures. Did they really spend themselves out in the world, or did they both decide to stay home and hang out? If it’s the latter, these movies might be just what you need to hit your local theater for your next date night:

Alone: ​​A Star Wars Story – Anyone who has seen the Star Wars movies knows that the softest character of all was Han Solo. He was charming, sexy, cool and had his own spaceship. No matter which way you looked at it, he was who we all wanted to be (no disrespect to Luke of course). In this new film, we get to learn more about how Han became the maverick we’ve come to love, and how he got to know the people he knew.

entering – This one is intense. If ever there was a relationship you didn’t mess with, it’s a mother and her children. Here our hero mom will stop at nothing as she tries to save her children as they are held hostage by a group of nefarious figures. This is an action movie because it is full of action sequences.

incredibles 2 – It’s been almost fifteen years since the release of the first movie, so fans have been anticipating this one for a long time. This film addresses the changing dynamics of the modern American home, as well as society’s views of those who are different. There’s even cleverly woven interaction about people changing as parents. There is a lot of content in this one and it appeals to all ages.

Make your next date night movie special by ditching the stream and painting the town red! Even if you didn’t like the movie, make it part of the fun. Have a cup of coffee afterwards and discuss it. Who knows? You may learn a little more about yourself than you thought. The important thing to keep in mind is to make your next date night more than just a date – make it special.
