How often would you go to the cinema if you had the latest TV to use at home when streaming, downloading and renting films?

I asked 10 people this question to see what the majority of the public would think on the advantages of having all these modern things on a HD, plasma and possibly a 3D TV.

Person 1

I wouldn’t go to the cinema as much as I would prefer to watch the film in the comfort of my own home

Person 2

I would still go to the cinema as the experience and the atmosphere of watching the film in the cinema first is always better

Person 3

I would prefer to stay at home as it is cheaper, I can order a take-away and I won’t be tempted to buy all of the goodies such as popcorn and fizzy drinks

Person 4

The sound is always better in the cinema and the screen is bigger and more clear which makes you feel part of the film and intrigues you more which is always a good thing

Person 5

I would prefer to watch the film at home instead of having to drive down to the cinema or get public transport; it just takes up a lot time

Person 6

When you watch the film at home, you can pause, rewind and fats forward when necessary without missing any of it e.g. if you need the toilet

Person 7

If the film is a new release, there will be lots of people in the cinema and you may have to sit next to many people and be squashed, sometimes they’re smelly as well

Person 8

If the family want to watch the film but one of the kids is not old enough, it is easier to watch it at home and it is less hassle

Person 9

It’s hard to find parking spaces round by the cinema and you may be late to get in, then you have to queue up and get your ticket, it’s just easier to stay at home and watch the film

Person 10

If I have just come home from work and I am tired, I can put my pyjamas on instead of having to get dressed up

Conclusion

Looking at the results from questioning the 10 people, I found that 3 of the people would still like to go to the cinema than watch it at home and the other 7 people would prefer to stay at home and watch it. These results were answered with various different answers and reasons.
