Sitting close to a giant tv just isn’t the same as seeing something on a legit giant screen.

    4K on a 55" screen looks, IMO, a lot better than whatever the resolution of a regular theatre cut is when blasted across that 70 foot wall. And, much more importantly, the 240hz refresh rate on my TV absolutely destroys that of the average cinema. Modern movies rely much more heavily on fast action and camera movements that look absolutely awful when displayed at 24fps.

    So, yeah, I really do find myself enjoying movies more in my “home cinema” than I do in an actual cinema. Plus, no kids or crying babies, no one kicking my seat or blocking my view, snacks are way cheaper and I can pause whenever I like.

    I’ve really lost any love I used to have for the theatre screening. Its not without its charms (getting to experience the crowd reactions to Infinity War and Endgame was really cool) but I just don’t think that’s enough to save it.

      Tom Cruise here they are! The person with motion smoothing!!

      I agree with you on everything but the 240Hz I cannot stand anything past 24fps for movies it gives me a headache.
