Comment on I'm not paying $8 for a pack of Skittles

For years and years they convinced us we need bigger, better TVs with surround sound and all the add-ons. That every person should build their own home theatre

Then they get mad that we stop going to their theatre.

Who tf is “they”??? I don’t think cinema owners were the ones pushing for mass adoption of home theatres.

Yeah my big flatscreen in my tiny TV room takes up most of my field of vision from the couch. The difference in quality is almost negligible, but I can pause to grab food, rewind if I missed something, and there’s no one else there on their phone or just making noise.

I’ll see a movie in the theater every once in a while if it’s like a grand spectacle, but most movies are just fine at home, if not better.
