Comment Re:I Would Rather Go To Theatres (Score 1) 341
I have stopped going to theaters due to people talking loud through the entire movie, kids or adults kicking my chair, people using their very bright phones during the movie, people talking on their phones during the movie, people that don't bathe and smell really bad in the theater, and the latest problem being theaters that play the movie at painful distorted volumes.
I love watching movies with loud surround sound at home but the volume in the theaters requires me to actually wear ear protection.
I never go to theaters even when our company pays for the tickets and the snacks.
I will continue to put money in to my home theater and not into the box office.
For those that love the commercial theater experience I say more power to you. I used to love the experience. It has really changed and now there is a new market for the industry to cater to a segment of the population like me as well as homebound folks that are not able to get to the theater for health or other reasons.
