I just watched Project Hail Mary in the theater... First movie I ever seen in a theater... What movies have you seen in theaters? Or do you have a home theater? Or just watch on tv/laptop? (sh.itjust.works)

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:

SPOILERS

Rocky 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

Congratulations dude!

Some people may not understand how debilitating anxiety can be. Good for you for overcoming your anxiety and going to a theater. I hope you had a nice time. 😌

I have mixed feelings about going to the theater these days because it's so relaxing and nice to watch stuff at home on my nice OLED TV (plus drinks and snacks are cheaper 😂). But it's certainly a good experience to go to a theater for the first time.

And now it'll be much easier for you to go again the in future. Or to go to other kinds of theater performances, like plays, musicals, opera, concerts or whatever.
