It was a three hour movie! I don’t want to sit around, no breaks in a theatre, no matter how comfortable for a movie. Broadway style show I might make it out of simple dynamics of the performance but a movie? Our home theatre is like floating on clouds in surround sound.

I haven't been to a theater in decades. With the widescreen TV, I can watch at home.
I have watched many of the newer CGI adventure flicks. After an hour-and-a-half I am looking at scenes they could have shortened or eliminated completely. More CGI does not necessarily make it better.
At least, at home, the film is usually via Cable ON DEMAND, Netflix/Amazon Prime streaming, or TiVo recording. Thus, I can pause and continue when I want.
Movies longer than an hour-and-45 minutes usually sit in my Netflix/AmazonPrime queue for months before I make time to watch.
