I had no idea that the majority of the members of this forum only frequent an actual cinema a few times per decade. I watch movies where I get the best quality experience for the $. That is now my HT. I have actually gone to a couple of IMAX (Omnimax) movies in the last year. The reason. They deliver something I can't get at home.

I used to enjoy going to the movies quite a bit but we go less and less because the experience doesn't compare that well anymore to what we have at home, and besides the occasional blockbuster like Avatar my wife says let's wait for the bluray because the sound is so much better at home.

Yeah, Peter; brings to mind the oldie: "Name two Americans who were shot in the back of the head while attending the theater". Answer: Abraham Lincoln and the guy sitting in front of Peewee Herman.

Lol, I think that might be the first joke I've heard you crack around here John!  Although I must admit I haven't been on this forum all that long. So I suppose I've missed a few zingers over the years eh.

Oh wait, one more: if there's someone waiting in line at an elevator that has mobility issues, or someone with a stroller etc., give them the right of way! That really ticks everyone I know off. If they're hot, then sure thing.

The last movie I watched at cinema was "Madagascar:Escape to Africa", just to bring along my kids. But you know what they said?
They said,"Papa, why the screen look blur-blur unlike our TV at home?"
There you go, I would stays at home and wait for BD...:p

But if your beer is too cold, you can't really taste it.
