Group of friends is always nice, and there's something atmospheric about watching a film in theaters. I watched Oppenheimer and Across the Spiderverse with my pals recently, and sitting in the reclining seats, putting your feet up, and seeing the film on such a massive screen in a dark theater is a great experience.

It feels more immersive, and the theater speakers make orchestral soundtracks and dialogue sound all the more impactful. Of course, this is all subjective, and I tend to be pretty eccentric, so there's a good chance it may not live up to the hype.

To put it simply, I'd say its a more enjoyable experience than watching at home, and watching it with friends makes for some good memories. My pals and I still talk about movies we went to see in theaters years and years back.
