In the vast majority of cases, we simply cannot experience a movie in a theater the way Robert was lucky enough to.
No doubt. As I said earlier in this thread, it's very fortunate to see 99% of the films I see in the best theaters in the country. I also noted that in travelling around the States, I have been shocked by the levels of theaters in places outside major cities like NY, Chicago, and especially LA. I'm from Long Island and even there, I find many of the theaters sub-par.
But again, nobody has stated that home theater is not an exciting, worthy development. It's just that home theater is supposed to be secondary to the primary experience at the theater. The collective experience is something that cannot be overrated and makes even a decent theater worth attending. When you examine the history of American film, it's always been something that brought people together, sort of a congregation that shared entertainment. You just don't get that sitting at home.
