I just watched Avatar, man was I stupid for not seeing that one in the theaters.
It gave the sub a pretty good workout too.

My equipment sig felt inadequate and deleted itself.

I have a projector but saw avatar in 3D and being opposite from your thoughts wished I had watched it at home

Also i watched Avatar at home but i agree with you.

Avatar was better at home in 2-D for me than it was in 3-D in the theater. But go figure... My eye doc recently told me I can't see 3-D.
I wish I had seen UP in the theater... but the Blu-ray on a 100" screen probably isn't too far off from that experience anyway.Equipment list:
Onkyo TX-NR3010 9.2 AVR
Emotiva XPA-3 amp
Polk RTi70 mains, CSi40 center, RTi38 surrounds, RTi28 rears and heights
SVS 20-39CS+ subwoofer powered by Crown XLS1500
Oppo BDP-93 Blu-ray player
DarbeeVision DVP5000 video processor
Epson 8500UB 1080p projector
Elite Screens Sable 120" CineWhite screen -
The only things I'd rather see in a theater than in the comfort of my own home would be comedies - you definitely laugh more when you're in a crowd of other people laughing.If you will it, dude, it is no dream.

Star Trek and Iron Man! I love watching them in my house, but could imagine that they would be awesome on a 70 foot screen!

Any of the original Friday the 13th Movies

Dude I can't see 3-D either! I thought I was the last of my kind. Likewise, I enjoyed Avatar more at home on Blu-Ray. -

It's coming out in IMAX 3D theaters again the end of August because they are adding a whole 8 minutes to it. So I guess it'll be Avatar 1.1??? Plus 2.7 billion isn't enough money.Panny 55-st30 plasma

My home theater sounds "better" than being at the movie theater in mu opinion. Might be the more intimate setting. The pod races on star wars sound like they are right in the living room!
-
My home theater is better than their's because: I can smoke, watch the movie in my underwear, pause the movie for head calls, AND my SQ blows theirs away!I refuse to argue with idiots, because people can't tell the DIFFERENCE!
-
"Debbie Does Dallas"If you can't hear a difference, don't waste your money.
-
I think seeing some the classic movies, especially restored, on a big screen would be a great experience....
Hitchcock movies
James Bond movies
70s disaster movies (i.e. Towering Inferno, etc.)
Bullitt -
For a Few Dollars More
The Guns of Navarone
The Longest Day
The Dirty Dozen -
Caligula
-
I missed the latest Star Trek also..:(Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.
-
None, my home theater puts our theater to shame....
