Well it is. :hmph:

Its not like you go to the cinema and just stare at a still image. That's what a 'picture' is. :hmph:

The word 'pictures' doesn't mean they're moving at all. It's just a plural. It's silly. :hmph: /fussy

I think I use both to be honest. I thought it was a generation thing. Pictures pertaining to Picture House. Cinema would be more common now I would have thought.

You do realise that I wasn't being serious when I said that? Silly [whatever gender you are].
