People got up, had a chance to go to the bathroom and mingled in the lobby. Much more pleasant experience.

Hopefully. I have been to an independent theater that partnered their traditional snack bar with a pizza restaurant next door. You could eat pizza and drink beer with your movie. Made the experience that much better.

In application, with part-time teenagers running the thing... I doubt it would as utopian a movie experience as they envision. :-) Vic Yup, like I said… on paper it sounds great.

With the increased price we would be paying, there would HAVE to be some sort of control/authority system keeping unruly moviegoers in check. And KILL those stupid commercials!!!

Well, maybe except for that last one (although I'm still waiting to get paid to review movies). :-) Vic PS, yup.

Lower ticket prices. 2. Increase the quality of the films. 3. Put muzzles on those who talk back at the screen 4. Have a cellphone shutter-offer thingy that shuts off all cellfones in the room. 5. Stop showing commercials 6. Give me free money. 1. Lower ticket prices.

Just cool trailers and the movie. What more could one ask for? No commercials = great

That’s one of the best parts of IMAX. Just cool trailers and the movie. What more could one ask for?

I'm just concerned with the cost and unintended consequences. In support of your statement, read my comments regarding watching "Spider-Man 3" in IMAX in my review. That is definitely worth paying a bit extra for, plus there were NO COMMERCIALS prior to the movie starting. :-D Vic I do like the idea of making a trip to the movies more “special.” I’m just concerned with the cost and unintended consequences.

I can tell you it's not something I would do all the time but for the right movie, I'd spend the extra to get this "in your livingroom" sort of treatment. As for "Bubble", I did see it and it's OK. Nothing spectacular but some great performances! If you're at all interested, the review is on the site.
