Watching movies

    Nowadays, as movies are popular between human society, many people often watch movies. Moreover, there are so many movie theatres and DVD rental shops so people watch movies according to their taste. There are several reasons between watching a movie in the theatre and at watching a DVD at home why people choose different ways to watch movies.

    The main advantage of watching a movie in a theatre is that there is special atmosphere so many people want to go the movies and spend their time in there. Especially, couples and close friends like to do it. Theatres offer better sound system as well as better display system so we can feel like we are in the movie. Besides, we can meet blockbusters earlier than DVD.

    On the other hand, certain aspects of watching movie in a theatre can be unpleasant. First of all, it is so expensive to watch movies in theatre. When we go to the movie, we spend a lot of money not only for it but also for lunch or dinner, popcorn and beverages, while watching a DVD needs only rental fee. Furthermore, it is hard to go to the movie alone whereas it is easy to watch DVD alone.

    Another point in favor of watching a DVD at home is that it is very comfortable when people watch it in their house. They do not have to be dressed up. They can be satisfied with movies without In addition to people can borrow any DVDs and even very old movies too.

    On balance, I would say that despite the advantages of watching a DVD at home. I would prefer to watch a movie in the theatre because I would like to somewhere with my friends and spend time with them. It is the most important thing in my life.
