***Movie-going not really a social experience? Speak for yourself, I guess.I suppose we ALL speak for ourselves. I suppose that is given.
So you like to see the others around you scream. Many of us don't.
I don't like going to the theater because I enjoy the crowd, far from it. My best experiences have been in an empty theater with just someone I care about. I don't think this is because the Jaws or Star Wars are not my kind of movies - I simply think many things in life, movies, good books, etc, should be digested privately. Then discussed, perhaps. But I really don't care bins what that slob in the next seat thinks about the Persona, I am watching it for myself. And if the slob is not there, so the better.
I would still go to the theater if it was not too crowded. I love large screen, even though I can get one at home. But I sure as Hell don't miss the audience. At Ritz you most of the time sit in a very small company - to have perhaps ten people in the room is not unusual - and I LOVE that.
I also realize that this discussion was pointless. With very few notable exceptions (that lucky dog Doug may be one) we do NOT have choice. There is no theater that shows most of the films I want to see aroung here, so I don't lament that fact, I simply rent.
