Not everyone has that, though. I’d love that, but a subwoofer with a proper sound system would annoy the hell out of my neighbors. Especially with houses getting harder and harder to buy, I think most people will be renting and they deserve the movie theater experience, too.
But they need d to make it better by enforcing things lkk no cell phones or talking.
The experience of modern theaters isn’t enjoyable. They don’t pay their labor enough for the service to be decent so everything is already gross even though most have been recently refurbished. The size of a big screen over a very large tv doesn’t really matter to humans as we normalize the size in our head after a few minutes. The sound is great so long as everyone is actually watching the movie and not making their own noise. The chairs are supposed to be comfy loungers but I can’t seem to find one that’s comfortable for my size. The concessions don’t taste good anymore. The popcorn is dusty / dry most of the time and the fake butter is far more chem than butter for the last 15 years. It was more common to have a shared experience before covid. It seems like there’s less of a shared experience in theaters now. I’m indifferent to how much a theater costs. If it cost a nickel or a hundo, it’s still the same poor experience for me.
Big TV, surround sound setup, fuck that, I don’t want to go to the cinema.
