    Saw Underwater last night. Thought it was really well done suspense/horror movie.

    • Saw it in the theater and saw it at home. Much better in the theater.lemmy_k
    • Make your home more like a theater then :) that’s what I didmonospaced
    • how many people fit in your "home theater" 300 ? 400? because thats what a theater experience is mostly about... community.neverscared
    • nah good sound and huge hi def screen

      i only enjoy an audience in stupid or funny films      woowahesque
    • @never, obviously it's just a home, but for me, it's about the quality of the picture and sound that makes the moviemonospaced
    • I'd argue that when people speak of a theater experience, they're also speaking of the quality, the picture size and the immense sound and dynamics.monospaced
    • Everything else about a theater experience sucks: hundreds of loud people, eating sounds, can't pause, super expensive, and on and on.monospaced
    • I'm not even fighting, I'm just talking about how a movie in a good home theater can be as impactful as in a real theater if you do it right :)monospaced
    • Good example is this movie. The “immersive” feel of a big screen and big sound really make it feel scary. A small tv and crappy sound kill that feeling.monospaced
    • A good steak and bottle of wine at home is also great. But the experience of getting outside, being with people, random encounters, laughs etc trumps all.inteliboy
    • Likewise for watching sport at home versus being at the stadium, or live music. Committing to an experience with a crowd can be amazing.inteliboy
    • Triangle of Sadness for example was incredible at the cinema for the ship scene alone - at home would have been fun, but also dulled without the crowd reactioninteliboy
    • Both for me, though I need a good movie to lure me out of my cave.YakuZoku
    • I have a big TV and a great sound system. Theater has a bigger screen and better sound, plus darkness during the day, plus screams at the jump scares. Home...lemmy_k
    • can never match that. It can, however, be great when you don't want the crowd and want to watch Mad Max 2. That one isn't playing anywhere.lemmy_k
