"Watching at home is nothing like the cinema experience"
True - I'm not surrounded by fuckwits explaining the plot to their retarded mates, rustling sweet packets, continuously moving from side to side blocking my view and coughing swine-flu germs over me. Nor am I being charged the GDP of a small African nation for a box of soggy popcorn and a cup of fizzy corn syrup.

I can also stop the film when I want a piss, drink beer and smoke whatever I like, and stretch out on a sofa that isn't sticky and doesn't smell of incontinent badgers.

So yeah, I'm really missing the experience there.

A lot of people have not seen what you can actually get at home.
And not even for much money, really. I mean, a decent 1080p projector is about $2000. And that's perceptually at least as big as a cinema screen since you're in a smaller place. And properly calibrated and fed a good HD signal, it's better than a lot of film projectors I've seen. And games, oh man.

Anyway, these things are not very cheap, but when you have them, you enjoy them pretty much every day.

I agree
Mines "only" 720p, three years old and I'm still waiting for the bulb to go, but switch it on and you're instantly transported to cinema-land!
