@Kit It’s just a different experience to see the picture on a bigger screen.

But why has the quality gone up over the years, as shown in the graph?

Cushioned, motorized reclining seats with footrests. Thick armrests so that you have a little personal space from your neighbors. And, they still got the drink holders. Quite different than the cheaper plastic seats from two decades ago.

Id like to add in on this, there are more dine in theaters than there use to be. Big one in my area would be thluie Alamo Draft House. Quality isnt what it use to be, but is still better than most. They also tend to reshow alot of older movies, will never forget seeing the original Predator movie and they were handing you a kids cap gun with a pack of the round ring of ammo on your way to the seats.

And all that for only $40 a ticket! What a deal.

Yeaaaah, that’s really not that common. In many places the only thing that’s been going up is the price (also the amount of ads before the movie)

I have a 65" oled tv. Pretty sure my tv has better picture quality than the movie theater. I’d much rather prefer to watch at home and not have to sit near 100 people coughing, thank you very much.

Also the quality of food at the dine-in theaters is disgusting. I ordered a chicken sandwich from my local theater earlier this year (went to see dune 2) and immediately felt nauseous and had to shit.
