[poundwise]

I just wanted to chime in on the thought posted earlier that part of the movie experience was "sharing it with all those other people." On this point, I am completely the opposite. Between the babies crying, people getting up, people talking, munching on food, and cell phones, I hate "sharing" the movie with other people.

I'd much rather watch most movies at home. Not to mention the fact that I rent movies locally for $1.25 each vs the ever-growing ticket prices at the box office.

I will admit that there are a few times when the theater experience may be better. If a movie is loaded with great special effects or the cinematography is special then to see it on the big screen may be worth it. For most movies though I am strictly an at-home viewer.
