    Watching a film in the cinema, the way some movie makers have intended (especially Christopher Nolan films), is an experience you don’t want to miss out on.

    If you’re more comfortable with friends, go for it so you can make some good memories and hang out together.

    Just be aware theatres are generally louder with bright massive screens. I love going, but now I’m older and I get bad headaches from all the volume and darkness - wasn’t an issue when I was your age.

    Go for it and have a great time!

    Should you try going to the cinema? It’s not a big deal, but I’d say yes at some time in your life. If not, you will always be askign this question.

    Alone or with friends? Whichever you prefer.

    It’s expensive. And, a lot of times people are inconsiderate. There are bad smells. Sticky floors. Screaming children. Can’t pause and go to the refrigerator or bathroom.

    A lot of people like it. Maybe you will, too. Try it. But, I prefer to stay home and wait to watch movies in the comfort of my own home.

    Catch OPPENHEIMER in Dolby Digital, if you can. A nice seat about halfway up the theatre, center row. ENJOY!

    First, go alone. But make sure you go at the tailend of the movie’s cycle before it goes out of theaters. That’s usually when crowds lessen and it’ll be easier on you to manage. Lots of people really find themselves annoyed because they attend a movie, just when it’s freshly released and they run into all of these problems.

    I mean yeah, for novelty’s sake, but you’ll find it’s a worse experience than watching in home.

      Watch Dune in the theaters and then watch it at home. If you still say it’s worse then I don’t know how to help you.

        The aspect ratio is the same if you own a 65 inch TV and I have a sound system.

        How would it be any different…?
