*** 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.
