Where do you watch operas?
There are plenty of complete filmed opera performances available on YouTube, which you can watch for free. Unfortunately, not all of them have English subtitles, but if necessary, you can always find a translation of the libretto online to follow along with.
In fact, just for fun, as an example, I'll provide some links to complete filmed performances of the world's top 10 most popular operas, with English subtitles.

Kati Outinen and Matti Pellonpää in Shadows in Paradise (Aki Kaurismäki, 1986) Cast: Matti Pellonpää, Kati Outinen, Sakari Kousmanen, Esko Nikkari, Kylli Köngäs, Pekka Laiho. Screenplay: Aki Kaurismäki. Cinematography: Timo Salminen. Glumly smoking their lungs out, a garbage collector (Matti Pellonpää) and a supermarket clerk (Kati Outinen) embark on a ploddingly passionless relationship -- their first date, to her disgust, is at a bingo parlor -- in Aki Kaurismäki's Shadows in Paradise. Don't look too hard for paradise: It's no more in evidence in Kaurismäki's film than in his friend Jim Jarmusch's Stranger Than Paradise (1984), unless Talinn, the Estonian capital toward which the couple set sail on a Soviet liner at the end of the film, is their idea of heaven. It's hard to think of a film as both authentic and ironic, but Kaurismäki and his actors manage to make their characters both convincing and, in a very low-key way, funny. It took me a while, to be sure, to catch on to the tone of the film: I had never seen one of Kaurismäki's before, and coming cold to its gray Helsinki cityscape and its entirely unprepossessing leads I wasn't sure whether the twinges of mirth I felt at their solemn, dogged worldview was appropriate. For that matter, after watching a lot of Kaurismäki's movies I'm still not sure -- which is one of the reasons I find his films so interesting.

Opera on YouTube
I've shared links to complete opera performances before, but I love to share them, so I thought I'd make a few masterposts.

Turo Pajala in Ariel (Aki Kaurismäki, 1988) Cast: Turo Pajala, Susanna Haavisto, Matti Pellonpää, Eetu Rikamo, Erkki Pajala, Matti Jaaranen. Screenplay: Aki Kaurismäki. Cinematography: Timo Salminen. As in Shadows in Paradise (1986), another of Aki Kaurismäki's impassive, expressionless couples sets sail at the end of Ariel, this time on the ship that gives the film its title. (If you know Kaurismäki's films, you surely weren't expecting any airy Shakespearean sprites?) When the mine at which Taisto (Turo Pajala) and his father work shuts down, the father hands the keys to his Cadillac convertible to Taisto, then goes into the men's room and shoots himself. Taisto stoically gets in the car and drives to Helsinki to look for work, despite the fact that it's winter in Finland and he can't get the top to go up. (This problem persists throughout the film, leading Irmeli's ( Susanna Haavisto) small son to comment, "Nice wind," as they're speeding along the highway. It's resolved only toward the end of the film when Mikkonen (Matti Pellonpää) asks, at a particularly inappropriate moment, "What's this button for?" and presto!) It's odd to use the word "charming" about a movie so grim in its setting and the plight of its characters, and that involves suicide, murder, various beatings, and prison time, but that's the nature of Kaurismäki's filmmaking: There are moments of dark delight scattered throughout, such as the fact that the fob on which the keys to the Cadillac are hung is the inner workings of a music box, and the tune it plays is the socialist anthem "The Internationale." Music is used wittily throughout the film, including various pop songs, and as the Ariel sails away to Mexico at the end, we hear "Over the Rainbow," sung in Finnish. There is something Faulknerian about Kaurismäki's determination to inject humor into even the grimmest of situations.

What's stuck in your head right now?
lots of very random bits!
1. various very loud dialogues from die walküre that are not too melodious or calming at all. one method of waking up without caffeine is having gwyneth jones or matti salminen scream your ear off. i love them still and they're stuck now.
2. loge's monologue from das rheingold where he recounts how he's asked around what people would be willing to trade for love. obviously, no one wants to stop being in love. except this one guy... (not a very showy bit, but you can just *hear* everyone start to scheme. the beginning of SO many problems, really)
3. aus liebe will mein heiland sterben from st. matthew passion. sung by gundula janowitz. a constant guest in my head that i will never un-invite.
