You're viewing a single thread.
Hight ticket prices, high snack prices, no pause button, sticky floors, other audience members. Hmmm. Wonder why things are bad for theaters?
Additionally, the last movie I went to actually started a full 27 minutes after the listed time, due to all the ads and trailers.
I've been trying to remember the last movie I went to see in a theater and all I can come up with is LOTR: Return of the King, lol!
No volume control. No sound channel EQ. No subtitle option compared to home DVD or some streaming.
As a hearing aid wearer the turned-up-to-eleven sound level combined with unequal balance between voice and music/effects is borderline unbearable.
Max bass, max reverb, max audio compression, plus muttering and whispering by so many actors being recorded at low levels, combine to make cinema visits something to be endured.
Ya know , it's been so long since I went that I totally forgot about that! Definitely agree.
Me too...
my local theatre has fucking horrible speaker buzz problems in most of their screens.
One of the screens has a very visible blemish too
Very little investment has gone into that place for years
don't forget eggs
What theaters are you going to that serve eggs?
kegs and eggs
