Hey folks...

I was looking through the member galleries and I saw a cool theater called Tha Bridge. (http://www.hometheaterforum.com/gall...e-Home-Theater)

It got me to thinking...

Anyone else have/seen home theaters based on a theme? A particular TV show/movie/genre?

Mike

That is one cool theater isn't it. I always wanted an HT set up like the bridge of the Enterprise D.

Definitely cool!!

I think I would opt for a more gothic feel...reminiscent of the Universal horror films of the 30's!

I have one loosely themed around the Terminator films...actually a salute to all SciFi genre films.

The challenge with theme theaters (in my opinion) are twofold. First, it's pretty easy to cross the line from cool to cheesy. Don't get carried away - less is often more. Second of all, there have been a number of times that I have seen these funky theaters in AVI magazine and such and the colors get so outrageous that could only have a detrimental effect on image quality. Try and maintain the spirit of your chosen theme but keep theater performance in mind throughout.

The quintessential Star Wars-themed theater!

Designed by a Star Wars set designer.






I wish it was mine.

Darren...

Pardon my ignorance, but I don't see a link above your name. All links I try don't take me to any pictures.

Mike,

The link is just above my signature in red letters at the bottom of my posts, entitled The CYBERDYNE CINEMA.
