4. There's something rather primal in watching a movie in the theatre.

I think that there is a human instinct to want to sit around the campfire and tell stories in the dark. The movie theatre, with that big, bright screen in the darkened room, is the modern equivalent of stories in the dark.

Watching the same movies at home, even on the largest of television screens, is just not the same experience.
