Do you prefer watching full movies at home or in a movie theater?

The cinema can give you that big screen you needed, the sound, and the energy of the crowd. When something funny happen in the movie, everybody laughs together and when something scary happen in the movie, you would hear people scream. But the cost of ticket is too high now. Home viewing is cheaper, you can pause when you need to pee, you can also rewind if you miss something. Which one do you prefer?

Home.

The Movies is way too expensive these days.

I have watched most movies at home. I haven't seen the reason to go to the cinemas recently when I've got a smart tv at home that can do the work even better.

It has helped me save a couple of resources going forward.

Some movies like Star Wars or The Hunger Games are made for the theater. But others like The Shawshank Redemption are just as good at home.

I mostly prefer watching my movies at home, i can be in bed and enjoy my movie while i eat whatever i want. Am not really much of the outing person.

Mostly at home, and occasionally at the movies just to get out—though I don't like spending that much time at home, either.

Even if you are not the type that likes going out, I would suggest that you create time at least once in 3 months to see a movie at the cinema. I prefer watching at home as well, but still create some time to see movies at the cinema.

Personally, I love watching movies at home because it's more comfortable and convenient for me. Although, there are some movies I prefer seeing at the cinema and Avengers : Doomsday is one of such movies.

I go to the cinema when I have a date with someone. I consider it no fun just going by myself. I have a large screen at home I can watch them on too, maybe not as large but it works too.

So, you never watch movies by yourself? Do you always watch them with someone else?
