Movie theatres Ugly Picture and sound, is it just my area?

[Kuraudo]

My friends and I agreed that movie theatres here in So. Cali look like shit. They are blurry, have excess grain, blobby and things like LOTR with a lot of vegetation look "blocky" so much that the general saying that isn't an improvement from DVD.
In the cinemas here, they don't always turn on surrounds
Pay 10 bucks to get only the center channel running, dumb screaming kids, rest my arms on sticky icky armrests and deal with ugly picture for what??
The one theatre (which is inconvenient to park) is the DISNEY theatre, now that one is good. But most theatres here really are the pits. Thats the only local digital one.

Film is high resolution, but the blu rays have MUCH MORE DETAIL, I'm sure of it. No comparison to the vegetation on LOTR to screencaps of remastered 1080p screencaps I have seen.

I've never been satisfied with a movie theatre, a dvd or anything in my entire life. I'm a picky or just knew better.
That is why I'm so hyped up for Blu Ray on a beautiful screen like SONY XBRs. Most of the time I think its good to watch blu ray at home this way. I think you people who made HTs at home agree.

I understand its cool to go to a theatre to get out of the house and thats why I do it. I'm only knocking the shit quality out here. I haven't gone to a Imax or THX theatre yet but i look forward to. How is the experience for that?
