Because i genuinely liked the earlier efforts and i like Steve Carell. But yeah i rented most of them. Its only about 6 bucks for an HD rental. I’ve never really regretted paying to see something recently, except maybe the last Jurassic World but that was dumb but entertaining. Something i wasted money on and never finished. Dr Strange 2.
My niece and nephew keep trying to get me to watch Disney Star Wars. But i’m not interested. 10 bucks a month for that service and you own nothing. I like to own my Star Wars on physical media. Even if it is bad.
The last one i bought tickets for was Force Awakens. I might go see Indiana Jones V but if i do i would be a fool to trust Lucasfilm again.
