I'm guessing pg isn't that into movies. For me, there's no comparison to the theater experience. Also, on "content" as undistinguished: http://languagelog.ldc.

- abstractbill 17y agoI'm into movies, and my home setup is way better than a theater.
- greyman 17y agoWhat about screen size?

- abstractbill 17y agoMy screen is something like an 8-foot diagonal (I use a projector, and a screen that pulls down from the ceiling). Our couch is maybe 6-feet away from the screen. So yeah, it is big enough ;-)
- timwiseman 17y agoDefinitely. I have not spent a lot of money on my home theater system at all, but the screen and speakers are more than good enough, and I can pause and rewind at will. Also, my couch is much more comfortable than the seats. I will go to movies with friends as a social event and very occasionally for IMAX, but I never go to regular movies for the movie.
- unalone 17y agoExcept for the thrill of seeing a movie in a large crowd. A good crowd is worth more than most of the inconveniences of the theater. Inglourious Basterds has to be seen on the silver screen to be really appreciated.
- skolor 17y agoYou know, its funny, one of the only reasons I go to movies is because of the "ads" before movies (Not the crap before the previews, but the previews, which I consider ads). Sure, its crappy advertising, but I see a lot of movie ads I wouldn't otherwise, and have ended up seeing several movies I never would have considered had I not.
