It seems everyone has a different sitting preference at the movies. I want the ultimate experience: the screen completely filling my vision, like I’m in the movie. Usually the third or fourth row. My wife complains we’re too close. Then I see people way in the back and it must be like watching TV the screen is so small. I don’t understand that at all. So, Lemmy, where do you sit with your popcorn and why?
Bonus question: best movie food / candy, and how do you sneak it in?
We like to sit on the end of the middle row so my wife doesn’t have to sit next to anyone else (her preference), and we can easily get up if needed without bothering anyone else. That said, it’s why we prefer cinemas with fewer seating so our viewing angle isn’t bad; unlike large theaters where end seats are too far to the side. Thankfully the IMAX in our city has the last 2 rows shorter than the rest, so seating at the end puts you close to the center; so we don’t need to sit at the very side of a huge theater.
