Watching movie in a theatre is something enjoyable. The sound effects will be very good and watching in a big screen gives full satisfaction and we can enjoy not only the sound but the costumes and scenary too. Just imagine seeing water fall in a theatre and in a computer. Former will be just like natural one.

Well it depends upon the financial budget of the person , if the person is getting good pocket money then he/she will definitely go to theater to watch the movie otherwise he/she will download to watch a movie but i personally think that movies are to be watched in theaters as the view in theater is completely different and marvelous but like i said not all managed to watch movie at theater they prefer to download it and watch .

I love watching movies under the comfortable conditions of my house, so i definitely prefer downloading them. It has been quite a long time for me since i last watched a movie in a cinema but i don't miss it. I do not need to leave the house, buy a ticket.. At home i can choose my own seat ;) Did the phone ring? Do i feel like getting snacks or paying a visit to the restroom? Just pause the movie and do it. Downloaded movies give you that freedom. However, to get the best performance from some extreme visual effects and sounds, local theater would be a good choice unless you have surround sound system to fit your "home" theater.

I think good movies should be watched in theatres because it gives the producers and other people who created the movie, enough profit to make more good movies in future. But the movies that are made just for the sake of money making and which does not give us any useful values can be downloaded if we want to know about it. I personaly prefer going to theatres with my friends. But if you care about the people who worked for the movie and make the living with the money earned from the movie, then you should definitly prefer theatres.

After i use BT tools and eMule or some online storages like RapidShare etc, i only go the cinema twice in my memory. Booking a ticket is sometimes a bit expensive and i can download the movie which i like to see. Any if a film isn't launch in the cinema, what should i do besides downloading from the net?

Hello kanna12345 this is checkmail and think watching movies preference do depend upon our age and type of movie also.Well if we are in teenagers than we can enjoy our movies at Theatres, as its an good experience.But peoples in mid-life and elders should watch it by downloading the movies, as there ain't any fun left for them at theatres.Even the types of movies do make some effect, action, comedy, romantic, etc movies can be viewed in theatre, but xxx, thrillers, horrors, etc movies must be seen by downloading the movies.And also don't forget never watch an emotional movie at theatre, it will spoil our image.Now you may enjoy the movies. Anyways Happy Mylotting.

There are certain movies which are packed with special effects like 2012 which are much more enjoyable on the big screen. Whereas family dramas and romantic movies are better watched at home with the right person to keep you company.

Well, I think that the most honest thing to do is to properly watch it in the cinemas rather than to download, but it really depends on the person and the morals that they have. If someone doesn't mind too much about downloading, they'll go ahead and download it without giving it a second thought. But if there's someone who strongly believes in doing the right thing, they'll either watch it in theatres, or wait for the dvd to come out to either borrow/rent or buy it in order to watch the movie. I think it really just depends on how the person views downloading vs watching it in theatres. For myself, I do believe that watching it in theatres is the most proper thing to do over downloading, but I'm not going to say that I've never downloaded anything before or watched any movies online.
