For me, the crowd is part of the attraction.  Assuming it is a ruly crowd,

don't care (that much) about the sound quality.  I just like the

I enjoy the movie theater experience too.  I do have this hangup about
liking to sit in fourth or fifth row center, but I can get over it for a
popular movie.  The big screen definitely wins out over livingroom TV.
I was thinking of the second-run movie houses that show movies for
$1-$2.  BTW, talked to my wife again and she said she'd probably see it
with me during the first run if I really wanted to, so I probably will
:) (but I'll wait at least a week after it comes out).  Also, with all
this hype surrounding the movie's release, do you think a lot of people
are going to be disappointed?  I don't remember a big deal being made
about the other two sequels to SW.  What id it's just a mediocre movie?
