The price of a cinema ticket in this day and age. No wonder people aren't going to the cinema anymore. - eviltoast

    I have a very good setup at home but we still like going to the cinema once in a while, it’s more of an event and we don’t spend the movie with our nose in our phones.

    We do select movies where it’s worth it, big action, etc. Last one was the new avatar in “4D” where they splash you with sprays, the seats move and you feel the wind, pretty cool.

      Maybe you should have a no phones rule when you watch a movie at home? Seems like a good idea otherwise what’s the point of watching

        We probably should and sometimes when it’s a movie we’re actually looking forward to, we’ll admonish each other when we see ourselves do it, but a good chunk of our relax time is also “put whatever on and scroll” and we’re ok with that.

          That last bit sounds detrimental to you brains, not a very healthy practice, but I also sometimes catch myself slipping up.
