This is not a valid comparison (Destiny)

Destiny you get to play over and over. The movie you see once then leave.

Don't get me wrong, I am constantly on the fence, is Destiny really worth it. I have put in a lot of time, but as others have said, it's doing non-fun stuff. But this is apples to oranges.

A bit closer would be comparing other games, or a movie you bought. For example I bought Baseketball when I was in college for like $10. We watched it almost every damn day. Let's guess and say we watch it 100 times that year. At 1.5 hours (it's really like 1.67 but whatever) thats 150 hours. That comes out to $.066666 per hour enjoyed. As you said, Games are different though.
