Which is More Enjoyable: Watching Movies at Home or in the Theater!?

In my opinion it is much, much better to watch a movie at home than it is at the movie theater! When you go to the movie theater you spend a ridiculous amount of money just to hear some guy behind you laugh like a hyena the ENTIRE time (even the parts that aren't that funny...). Or you'll get the seven foot tall guy who just happens to sit right in front of you, despite there being 20 other open seats in the theater.. I hate the ones that sit there ant talk on their cell phone while the movie is on, you know the one, narrating the entire movie to their friend who could afford to come to. There are also the kids who sit in the front and throw stuff at the screen the entire time and the chronic "boo-ers", they are just as annoying as the people who just won't shut up during the movie.

I would rather watch the movie at home so that if I need to I can pause the movie so that I can take a bathroom break, get a snack, etc without missing any part of the movie. Also, I like the fact that I can sit there and watch the deleted screens and the director's commentaries are not too bad either. I usually buy the Collector's Edition DVD with all the deleted screens and whatnot so I feel I get more out of my movie watching experience than paying $10.00 a person to listen to screaming babies and the like. It also allows me to re-watch the movie if I didn't understand certain parts or if the movie was confusing as a whole. Overall the movie watching experience is so much better than going to the movie theater for me that it has been several years since I have actually went to the movie theater to see a movie.
