Do you prefer watching movies at the cinema or on TV?

Why do you prefer what you prefer?

Cinema because you can just relax and focus on the film. If I watch it at home I'm bound to use my phone.
 
If given the option, cinema 110%. It's the way they were meant to be seen, better screen, better sound, no distractions.

At home, I admit I get distracted way too easily.
 
Depends on the film. If it's a big action movie that would serve better with louder speakers, bass, and a much larger screen then cinema. The rest of the time I'd rather just watch at home.

I actually enjoy both. Watching movies in the theater is great when you go with friends but it can also be a pain in the butt when you got people carrying on conversations throughout the entire movie. That's annoying. One aspect of the experience. I also like to spend time in the comfort of my home. If it's a really long movie and I need a break nothing like hitting the pause button, picking it back up later, etc.
 
I prefer the television. Too many people like to sit there and talk during the movie at the cinema. When I took my kids to see The Batman, this guy sat there and said perverted shit about Zoe Kravitz throughout the entire movie. It was every minute he had something stupid to say. It's people like that why I don't care to go anymore.
 
I prefer them in the cinema, mostly due to the audio. But I rarely go to the cinema and mostly watch movies once they come out on Blu-Ray.
