Movie Night In: A Guide to Home Entertainment for Families

Summary

With the coronavirus pandemic throwing a wrench into the entertainment industry, many movie theater chains throughout the United States have pivoted to offering movie streaming services to their customers. This strategy has proven to be successful for many theater chains, allowing them to stay afloat while providing a safe and convenient movie-viewing experience to audiences around the country.


At-home movie streaming has become increasingly popular. The standard streaming service model includes renting movies or buying digital copies of the films to view at a time that suits viewers. This kind of viewing flexibility makes streaming appealing to many people. Additionally, streaming services such as Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon Prime Video have gained a large and devoted following due to the wide variety of movies, television shows, and other content they offer.

In an effort to compete with streaming services, movie theater chains have begun offering their own streaming services. This allows cinema chains to remain competitive and capitalizes on the appeal of streaming services. Movie theaters can provide the same flexibility and convenience as streaming services, but with a few added benefits.

One of the most notable benefits of viewing movies in a movie theater is the shared experience with others. Watching a movie in a theater creates an atmosphere of camaraderie and adds a fun and memorable experience to the viewing experience. Additionally, movie theaters can offer various promotions, such as discount tickets, concessions, and special events that draw people in and keep them coming back.

Another benefit of movie theater streaming services is that customers can purchase tickets without the need to leave their homes. Customers can purchase tickets online and have them sent directly to their email address or mobile device. This eliminates the need to physically wait in line and expedites the process of buying a ticket. Overall, it is a much more convenient experience for consumers.

Movie theater streaming services provide customers with the convenience and flexibility of streaming services, but with the added layers of the shared experience and various promotions. For those looking for an enjoyable movie-viewing experience from the comfort of their own homes, movie theaters streaming services are an attractive option.
 

Stay Home and Enjoy Movies!

With the evolution of technology and the possibilities of modern entertainment, there is no need to leave the comfort of your home in order to experience the joy of a movie. Today, it is possible to watch the latest releases and classic films from the comfort of your own living room. Streaming services such as Netflix, Amazon Prime and Hulu allow for instant access to movies that can be accessed from all types of devices, including smart TVs, gaming consoles and mobile phones.
 

Gaining Access to Movies

The process of watching movies at home is extremely easy. Once an account is created for one of the streaming services, users can simply search for the movie they wish to watch and click play. Payment options vary from service to service, but many allow for the purchase of a movie or a subscription plan that allows users to watch the latest movies.
 

Enjoying the Benefits of Watching Movies at Home

In addition to being easier to access than traditional movie theaters, there are countless benefits to staying home and watching a movie. Firstly, it is much more cost effective as users have the option to purchase individual films or sign up for a subscription service. There also is no need to pay for transportation, snacks or other theater related items. Furthermore, watching movies at home allows for users to experience the movie in its entirety, with no worries of noisy viewers or that the movie will end prematurely.
 

Setting Up the Perfect Home Theater

To get the best experience from a movie at home, setting up the perfect home theater is recommended. This can be done through investing in a quality television with surround sound, a home theater system and comfortable furniture. Additionally, to get the true theater experience, users can choose from a variety of streaming services, such as Netflix, Amazon Prime, Vudu and Hulu, that contain classic, recent and upcoming blockbuster films.

The theater grows dark as the opening credits flash on the screen. A batch of warm popcorn fills the air with its deliciously buttery scent and tantalizes the senses of the moviegoers who anxiously await the first scene of the highly acclaimed, Academy Award-winning film. Unlike most cinematic experiences, you surprisingly don't find gum underneath your chair, your feet don't stick to the floor, and you don't have the slightest expectation of hearing the whining of a newly teething baby in the middle of a tender love scene. Something isn't right. This must be the Twilight Zone. No. This must be your very own private movie theater!

With the price of a movie ticket constantly increasing, it only makes sense to avoid the lines, the ushers and all the other hassles of a public cinema. Why continue to pay more for the same old movie-going experience when you can pay a lot more for your own cinema-quality experience at home? With new technologies developed by Runco, a leading producer of home theater equipment, you can now have a home movie experience that surpasses the quality and intensity of even the most advanced cineplexes. For only $249,995, you can purchase the MBX-1 digital projector. This 3-chip digital projection system has enough power to project to screens as big as 41 feet wide. Of course, one would need to have enough empty wall space to fit such a monstrosity in their home. The digital projection provides an extremely crisp and clear image superior to the standard projection quality in theaters. Now, you will finally be able to spot the spaghetti sauce stain on Marlon Brando's dress shirt in The Godfather.

In addition to state-of-the-art digital projection, a premium home theater requires an earth-moving, soul-shaking, sound system. A multi-speaker, THX, Dolby Digital Surround Sound System will do just the trick. Not only will you be watching Seabiscuit, you will be riding right alongside him, feeling the pounding of hooves and the jarring cheers of the crowd.

Some may say that this is the same as going to a movie theater, so why spend a quarter of a million dollars? The answer is simple. You can't wear your pajamas to the theater. You can't tell the projector operator to pause the film while you use the restroom. You can't run to the kitchen to fix yourself a BLT and grab a Long Island Iced Tea at the 21 screen megaplex. And let's face it, with the rising cost of tickets, and the astronomical price of anything edible at the movies these days, $250,000 is a bargain.

Any true movie fan would spare no expense when it comes to creating his or her very own private screening room, so leather lounge chairs, velvet curtains, a popcorn cart and theater lighting are essential. And what movie is complete without food and drinks, served by personal butlers? Let's not forget this is LawCrossing Weekend, and we never settle for anything but the best. After you finally have the home theater of your dreams, you will never step foot inside a cinema again, and if you feel generous, neither will your friends. Now you macho men can watch Fried Green Tomatoes and Steel Magnolias without worry and you ladies can finally have that Sylvester Stallone marathon you have been waiting for. Not only does owning a personal theater give you incredible freedom and comfort, it makes you a true movie aficionado - a distinction that only the likes of Spielberg, Hanks, Bogart and Members of LawCrossing can ever attain.
