You have endless options to entertain yourself with. Who is forcing you to live in a cage and eat only bread and water? I'm confused with your bizarre, overacted and melodramatic logic

Billion dollar corporations are quick to complain about people stealing their shit; they're a lot less interested in addressing the root cause of theft, which is poverty, inequality and the fact that so much money is in their hands, at the expense of 'the masses'.

Ok... communism failed. End of story. In fact, there are not communist states for you to move to. Try Cuba? Dunno how to help you.

Okay explain why it's acceptable for people to be denied 'art' or entertainment (movies, books, music, TV, or games) just because, for whatever reason, they are unable to afford it. Why do only rich people have the 'human right' to enjoy life?

You are not denied anything. You are 100% free to pay $9.00 for a movie ticket to watch a 3d IMAX movie with your favorite stars that cost $200,000,000.00+ USD to produce. Not a bad deal. You just feel you should be able to steal it if you want to.
You are also free to not watch movies at all.
You are free to rent that same movie a couple months later on DVD from Redbox for $1.00 per night.
You are free to watch TV for free.
You are free to pay for Cable and have 100s of channels to watch, 24hrs a day.
Your real issue is that you simply want everything on your terms and hate the fact that life doesn't happen on your terms. When you grow up, you'll finally start to get it.
Why am i denied the opportunity to own and drive a new Bugatti Veyron? I might just have to get on your bandwagon and steal one because i'm on board with your sense of entitlement. Why should i be denied the experience of driving a $1,000,000.00 vehicle even if i didn't earn the right?
