Okay, but the upgrade at my local theatre was so worth it. They sell burgers and booze. Waitresses deliver it to your seat. They have actual good recliners.

Makes for a phenomenal date night.

That sounds like a detriment to me.

You live in a world full of choice. This is just one of them.

Still have blurry dim projectors. And $35 burgers don't taste that good.

Still have blurry dim projectors

Every single cinemy in my area has Barco flagship laser projectors

The only time I ever experienced blurry projectors was at a $5 discount theatre, and that was 15 years ago.
