   So much trouble. I go to my local theater, hand them a $10 bill
(because I'm a senior) and sit where I like. :)

 I'm trying to remember the last movie I saw that was worth $10.  Maybe Terminator 2, but we have a blu-ray which cost less than that.  It's been a long time since I actually wanted to see a movie in a theater.

I find going to a cinema a more fulfilling experience than watching the same movie at home.
It fills up way more time :-)
The display and the sound are way better than mine, too.
