In reply to:
Ian stopped going to theaters in the early 80s!!
1996's The Fan was the last movie I saw in a theatre, though we have attended the drive-in a few times since (which is a different experience altogether). Mediocre sound, idiot patrons, no chance to pause it and pop out for a smoke and generally my lack of being able to sit still for 2 hours just make it an exercise in futility.
One of the audio techs I used to work with hadn't been to one since the 60s... he had the same problem with sitting still... must come with working in a situation where everyone else is sitting and watching a broadcast or event and it's your job
not to sit quietly and watch.
