Home viewing has taken over, but cinema still lives, and I do like seeing epics on a commercial big screen with a room full of people, though sometimes these days it turns out to be almost a private showing in a near-empty auditorium.
For best results I choose particular cinemas and even specific screens: Elvis and Oppenheimer at Sydney’s Cremorne Orpheum Cinema 4 were particularly powerful experiences (they run that room loud!), and you get a bonus Wurlitzer coming through the floor on Saturday afternoons, something you rarely get at home.
