My wife and I just got married a year ago and bought are first home. We are both big movie fans, but were sick of spending $50 a weekend to go see movies so we decided we would cut back on the movies and put it towards a home theater system. We wanted to keep it around $1000 for the actual home...

First off I would like to say my wife and I just bought a house. I am still in school and money is tight but we are huge movie fanatics and where sick of spending $40 bucks a pop to go the the movies when we can just wait for red box movies. I wanted to build a home theater in our basement with...
