Default Do you like watching films on T.V.

Commercials, speeded up content, is that good? Or do you always watch the Blu-Ray?

if it's on tv and i'm feeling lazy, i'll leave it on, but......if it's a hard rated R movie and it's on regular tv and is edited, i'll skip right over it and watch it later that day usually.

1) On my player - definitely, most of the time. I can watch what I want when I want and how I want. I don't rent either because I feel obligated to block out viewing time.
2) On TV - not much. There isn't much that's worth seeing on regular TV. Too many crap shows. May watch an occasion movie here and there just to see if it's worthwhile to buy. I use the TV broadcasts for background noise sometimes if I'm on the computer. My computer is hooked up to my 50" TV so I do split screens when I'm on the computer.
3) In the theater - occasionally, some movies have to be seen on a BIG screen first. Others are just a waste of money.
4) On-line - never more than an occasional trailer. Don't have the time or patient to go through the streaming or downloading.
5) Ipod - never. Don't want to see anything on small screens in any way.
6) Computer/laptop - never. Prefer to see my movies on the full TV screen not on a desktop window.

Theater or Home Theater.
It's the only way.

On my Blu-ray player, on my couch, holding an ice cold beer, and tickling my girl > In a crowded, overpriced theater full of inconsiderate/oblivious pre-teens.

Hands down... and feet up on my ottoman.

That's a silly question. You might as well ask, "Do you perfer to watch movies: (A) in a dark theater on a giant screen with great sound which takes your whole attention; or, (B) while cooking lunch for the kids who are running around the living room, with the phone ringing, the laundry needing folding, the dog scratching at the door, the films colors are washed out, the sound muddled, and two noses talk to each other in Acadamy ratio?"

Some people perfer the latter, but not those who buy Blu-rays and post here.

To answer: I perfer my home theater. It's like a movie theater except there are no cell phones or teenagers. Also, it has a bigger selection. For example; the local theaters might have one Eastwood movie. Mine has the entire Dirty Harry series.

Plus, mine is closer to home and has a better wine list.

I don't mind watching some movies on TV, but only once in a while. I normally either just watch them on my Computer or on DVD!

If I want to watch a movie, I will buy it and play it in my theater. I never watch movies on tv because it ruins them completely. Commercials, tv network bugs, pop unders filling half the damn screen just ticks me off and takes you out of the movie.

I can't stand watching movies on tv as they edit them badly and I can't stand commercials breaks as it takes you outta the movie. Sometimes I'll leave it on a movie if there is nothing on and I'm bored.

I prefer to watch a movie in the Theater first, and TV second. No matter how good a home theater is, it just doesn't have the same feel as a regular theater.

For the most part I won't watch movies on regular, commercial tv unless it's on an HD channel and I'm really board and it's a movie I haven't watched for a while. I have all the movie channels so I can usually find something to watch on those. Of course, I'd much rather watch in on Blu-ray but that isn't always an option, especially with older titles. I rarely go to the theater anymore because I can wait a couple months and watch it on Blu-ray. The last movie I saw in the theater was The Dark Knight, although I might start going more because I'm bored with no more football and it's so cold in Iowa.
