Btw idk why I have anxiety the entire time... (no, not anxiety about the plot... like just random anxiety) but besides that....

Great experience (ish... I rather own a movie theater and have it all by myself so I don't have so much anxiety)

BIG SCREEN

My favorite sequence was when:

SPOILERSRocky risks his life to save Grace

I like the sequence of like the darkness and then a flash of light to show whats going on... that was so cool

I love the moments of silence...

So much different from just watching it on a 15.6 inch screen + headphones at home... (and also I'd have to wait for home release...)

(Put any spoilers in tags pls)

Edit: Also I was gonna take a photo of the theater and like the outside areas after you check in... and also like the mall area and stuff... but I kinda forgot due to anxiety... lol

Edit2: ALSO: I missed so much dialogue because my ears suck lol. I thought my English was good having arrived at 8 years old but apparantly not lmfao

Need a rewatch later at home (when home release comes out) WITH SUBTITLES

I prefer watching movies at home. It’s just so much cheaper and more convenient. But if I like a movie enough I’ll buy a ticket and not go like I did for Iron Lung.

What's your "Watch at Home" Setup?

I don't have big screens 😭 (Edit: I mean besides a shitty tv my parents have that just has terrible colors... not even an oled)

At one point my laptop wasn't working and I didn't have one so during those times when I was bored, I'd watch in my phone 😭

I need to rewatch my favorite ones on big screen... idk if they re-show old movies tho...

I need to make myself a dark room

Or just watch at night and forget needing curtains

Also the sound would suck...

Either loud speakers equivant to the theater experience and then neighbors will complain about the sound...

Or just headphones... which is lame tbh

What is a reasonble budget setup that doesn't look crappy?

Like one below $1000

Oh yea I cant justify $1000 out of pocket right now lolz

I just have a big TV with the built in speakers. I’m into movies for fun more than for spectacle.

The last two movies I watched were Bio-Dome and In The Army Now with Pauly Shore and it was perfect because I was naked, baked, and laughing out loud the whole time.

How much money is your TV? How big? Oled?

Was it easy to get it inside your house?

Also how do you solve the lighting issue? Watch only at night time?

Only like $600 but that was almost five years ago. It’s just a 52” LED which I mainly got because it’s got Roku.

Super easy to move around, and I mainly watch at night but I have good blinds if I want to watch during the day
