The RIP thread...

It is frustrating that a lot of films today don't demand the cinematic experience for full enjoyment. I really like going to see certain films on the big screen but occasionally I come away thinking that I may as well have seen it on a DVD at home..

Probably because the cinema release is not where a film makes most of its money.
If I was making a film I would want it to look good on DVD.

Going to the cinema isn't a great experience these days. It's expensive, there are always foreigners having a conversation, somebody tall with big hair obscuring the view, You can't drink, smoke or pause the film to have a piss. I'd rather watch something at home.
