Family of 4 trip to the movies: $40
Sodas and popcorn at the movies: $48
Sticky floors, long lines, and noisy people: No extra charge.
Watching beautiful Blu-ray movies in the comfort of my own home? PRICELESS.

40ft screen and more wattage than your house can handle on a 4K DLP or IMAX?

Movie theater

it used to be more inviting, when all you had at home was a 20'' TV maybe with stereo tinny speakers and crappy VHS tapes to see a movie on a big screen wtih THX. But not you can see a movie on a big screen (in HD) with THX or Dolby Digital at home, and the viewing distance is optimized for you and the sound is optimized for you and the movie starts whenever you want. Just harder and harder to justify going to any movie except the truly exceptional. And I agree, the last few times I have thought while in a theater that the movie would actually look better and sharper and brighter on my TV. Seems like about half the movies in theaters are improperly focused by the "projectionist" aka 14 year old geek making minimum wage.
