I don't necessarily hate theaters, but I'd much rather watch at home. No people unwrapping candy or chewing crunchy popcorn. No sticky seats, kids bawling, people talking. I can take a "commercial" should I need one and the sound can be as loud or as quiet as I want (and my sound at home is a lot cleaner than at most theaters anyway). The screen is never out of focus. I can lean back in a comfy chair and enjoy the show. It's a damn sight cheaper too (and since I rent from Netflix I get to keep the movie for a whole week should I want to see it again)!
Much better than most theaters (with the exceptions being the mega-theaters like the Uptown in DC or the Cineplex in Baltimore).
Happy viewing!
My thoughts exactly. Unfortunately, I am far from being any kind of videophile or audiophile but am trying to learn more here.The popcorn is disgusting and why people want to eat everywhere they are always escapes me. Just my opinion of course but it is one reason I dislike theatres except real theatre (stage not screen).
