For me, sometimes its nice to go to the theater for its own sake. The sound isn't as good and the screen, while larger, sometimes isn't as clear. But some theaters are very good in both respects, and sometimes its just nice to get out. On the other hand, watching at home is private, and that has its benefits too. You can pause the movie if you need. The sound is better and you can set the volume as desired.
I enjoy watching the big blockbuster action movies at the theatre just for the big screen effect, otherwise I'd just as soon watch movies at home. I only have a 31 inch screen (just a TV), but it's always sharp, and the sound will match or beat any theatre I've heard. Besides, the chairs are more comfortable, the coffee is better, and I can have Guinness or Amber Bach as I watch, or even Mead (which I have taken a big liking to the last few years). Being able to get rid of any of those drinks without missing any of the movie is nice, also.
home. With the SAmsung 61" DLP 1080P and even 480P dvd output, along with my altec VOTT /sub system, I get pretty decent sound and picture. Plus with netflix, I can watch movies I would never get to see in a theater. -akhilesh
That is so true. Gooing to the movies was and used to be about just getting the full affect of watching it. The surround sound and big screen made it seem surreal. But now a days, people are watching movies in the privacy of their own home because it's more convienant. Right down from the kitchen. How much better could it get.
I figure if you can get the same resulsts as you do at the movie theatre then why not stay at home. I have a system that gives it that movie theatre sound, so I dont spend money.
