Many consider that with the availability of entertainment services on mobiles, watching movies in theatres has become less favourable, while others believe that a movie must be watched in a cinema to enjoy it to the fullest. In my opinion, certain movies should be watched in theatres to experience their remarkable production.
Movie streaming applications cut down on the price of theatre tickets and offer services that can be accessed anywhere and at any time. Besides, there are features like pausing, skipping 10 seconds forward or rewinding and adding a list of movies to a ‘to be watched’ category incorporated into these applications. Moreover, the membership cost of such online platforms is affordable by a vast majority of people thereby increasing their popularity. For instance, Netflix, one of the most popular streaming platforms provides all the aforementioned features at only 15 dollars per month.
However, sci-fi, horror and 3D movies are made to watch on the big screen. Films produced with a million dollars budget with extra ordinary graphics and cinematography entice the audience when watched in a theatre. For instance, movies like The Avengers and Justice League were released in 3D format with exceptional sound effects giving the audience a phenomenal feel of amazement. It would kill the whole feel, if not enjoyed in a theatre. Furthermore, going out to watch a movie could also give someone a chance to socialize and have fun in their leisure time.
Finally, although web streaming provides a seamless experience for a user, theatre experience leaves the audience with a sense of satisfaction. I think watching films in a theatre gives a wholesome experience to a person.
