That is a good idea also. I personally watch all movies at theater & many of them multiple times.

I do have a quality sound system & big screen TVs but there are too many distractions in my household for this to be an enjoyable experience.

In general I feel the special effects & epic type movies are best on Big screen.

Star Wars on TV sucks!

Some with just a story line, normally are fine on the smaller screen/rental.

I am pleased to add you to the list.

Welcome!

"Star Wars on TV sucks!"

So does Gone With the Wind! I'd give anything to see it on the big screen again!

I would agree. For special effects & epic type movies.
However, from my experience, most of the movies nowadays (probably about 75% to 85%) aren't worth the expense of theater tickets. And as far as distractions go, some theaters are the absolute worse as far as noisy kids AND ADULTS!

Wow what a lot of work you put into this.

A question for you and all you other film buffs.

In Britain we do not use the word theater (theatre) when going to a film we say Cinema. A theatre is where a play or show is performed not a film shown.

Common or slang names are also

Pictures
Movies
Flicks

Do you use these terms ?
