[QUOTE="Meech17, post: 9363318, member: 7044459"] I still really love the cinema experience. I always get a giddy feeling when I sit down in those plush theater chairs with my gallon of Cherry Coke and my bag of sour gummy worms. I love feeling the rumbling bass in my chest. That moment where the lights go down and and a hush (hopefully) goes over the room. I also really miss previews.. The one or two movies I go to a year anymore are the only place I learn about new movies coming out. I haven't had cable in years, and I feel like movie advertising has slowed down in general.. Or at least I just don't see it anymore. More often than not I only learn that a movie has come out when I see an article talking about how poor it's reviews were.. Or the in case of Furiosa all the nimrods on twitter trying to say it did poor box office numbers because cool girl character bad. But it's just hard to justify the cost, and like you said, the potentially poor experience. It feels like no one cares about not being on their phone the whole movie anymore. I always feel bitter coming out of a movie knowing I just paid $30/head to get blinded by the jerk in front of me every two minutes, or have the screen blocked by some bozo taking a picture.
