...to put that on my list of major distractions. Thanks for reminding me.Can you imagine going to the *legitimate* theatre and being able to stop action? Even if you were *the only member of the audience*, wouldn't that be... weird?
I say, take a leak and settle in.

*** Can you imagine going to the *legitimate* theatre and being able to stop action? Even if you were *the only member of the audience*, wouldn't that be... weird? ***This is circular reasoning. You are saying it would be inappropriate to press pause in a theatre.
But the whole point of the discussion (to me) is whether you can truly experience a film *without* going to a theatre.
And exactly what do you mean by a "legitimate" theatre anyway? :-)
Sounds like you have an emotional attachment linking the experience of watching a film with going to a cinema. That's fine, but it doesn't have to be the only way of enjoying a film.
"This is circular reasoning. You are saying it would be inappropriate to press pause in a theatre." Yes... and that's "circular"? Plus I meant, with live actors doing it."And exactly what do you mean by a "legitimate" theatre anyway? :-)"
"Legitimate theatre" refers to the drama stage. It's a term.
> legitimate theatre
> noun
> 1. The body of plays by traditional dramatists as distinct from other kinds of dramatic productions such as films, TV drama, vaudeville, etc.
"Sounds like you have an emotional attachment linking the experience of watching a film with going to a cinema." That's confused. I'm stating that the theatre affords a far greater response, emotionally and otherwise, than any home outfit and you won't find a single director who disagrees with this view.

really, you are getting funnier by the minute!*** you won't find a single director who disagrees with this view. ***
Actually, i know a few directors who would disagree with your view. And I've even visited and experienced their "home theatres."
You obviously have a fixed opinion on this and no one is going to convince you otherwise. but it doesn't mean you are right and other people are wrong. other views are equally valid, you know.
But let's dispense with the sarcasm, psychoanalysis and lecturing shall we?It's possible to disagree and be pleasant about it y'know.
