4 ways I make movie night at home better than the cinema

Before anyone jumps on me, I’m a big believer that if you’ve got the time, money, and opportunity, you should always support movies in the theater if you can. It’s not just about rewarding good work, though that is important. It’s also like the late David Lynch said — you’ll never get the full effect of a movie by watching it on your iPhone. A massive picture, booming sound, and the reaction of the crowd can transform a movie from a fun distraction to something life-changing. Just ask someone who saw Star Wars, Jurassic Park, or Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring on opening weekend.
