nolongersingle-But you can say that with anything. Parnassah, you could say get another job, a stay at home job, or with medicals issues, get a new doctor. If one wants to watch a certain movie and that is what he wants to watch, then there is no other movie like that, then he has no other path.The only question is does the Gemara apply to any purpose whatsoever or only real legitimate purposes. See Tosafas Avodah Zarah 48b (disscusing idolatrous trees) where he says even if the path is longer you don’t have to take it
