Will you miss the big theaters?
#28
RE: Will you miss the big theaters?
Yes, I miss the theater terribly; I think I've seen 3 films at the theater in the last 12 months. I've enjoyed seeing films at the theater since childhood and I've seen thousands of them of all sorts of genres. The size of the screen and the sound make the theater the ideal place to watch films, something you can't replicate at home. People have always talked and crunched popcorn and laughed and shrieked at the theater; that is nothing new. As long as the film is entertaining, I can get lost in it and barely notice them. What has changed is digital projectors, which means no film to break and the sound has vastly improved, not to mention seat elevation and reclining seats. I don't care for the pre-movie advertisements. Back in the 80's and before we had pre-movie cartoons and that was fun. If theaters disappear, I will certainly miss the experience but there will likely be films for a very long time. We will just watch them at home.

BTW, in college I delivered a speech in my public speaking class about why the class should all go out and watch the new Friday the 13th flick. Don't remember which one in the series it was. I got an A+ but I doubt there were many takers.
Why is it so?
