Last Wednesday I went to the movie theater to see the Planet of the Apes.

Last thing I watched... Harry Potter VII-2. The downside of having an incredibly small TV at home is that a cinema screen is still something worth paying for for me XD I have watched like 6 movies this year.

Great movie though. <3

Small TV screens... I used to have just a 21" TV 10 years ago or so. Now that the whole house is equipped with large HDTVs, though... Well, I increasingly find cinemas not worth it anymore.

Trying to watch movies in the cinemas around here is like trying to watch a Blu-Ray movie with the best sound... but with a 240p projector. Blurriness, anyone?

I think the last movie I watched was 2012 back in 2009. Yeaaah I don't go to the movies often. I totally catch up via TV, though!

I have a LED tv screen of 42''and still I love going to movies.

I have a 50" 3DTV in the lounge, so there's no shortage of movie entertainment at our house.

But despite so, I like the atmosphere of cinemas and am planning to go very soon to watch Jane Eyre.

I do think that HDTVs are going to eat into cinema attendance sooner or later... especially cinemas that still use film-based projectors. Which is pretty much most cinemas at my place.

The only thing I go to cinemas for is the sound, and even then, headphones + my PC monitor should do better.

I have a TV plugin and with the appropriate wire used, I watch TV using my laptop's monitor.

Bleh, I can't afford a widescreen or high-flat or whatever those big TVs are.

I have a 50" LED in my room, as well as the living room and smaller ones -- I think 30-something" -- in the kitchen, balcony, and my brother's bedroom. However, I rarely watch TV unless it is football or anything related to the Family Guy and The Simpsons. I go to the movies every Saturday and sometimes Sunday.

I know someone who has a TV in every bathroom of his house.

I can't imagine having that many TVs in the house, I have an old TV/Video combo in my room that hasn't even been used for years.

Seriously, the last time I used that thing was in 2004, and that was only to dig up and play Pokemon Stadium 2 on my N64. XD;

Let's see... 2 TVs for the whole home for me. Both are HDTVs - the old CRT TV was finally dumped a year ago or so.

I also don't like that much TVs, but my dad does. He is a TV-freak-addict. I only use the one in my room before I hit the bed.

I have way too many old TVs somewhere in the closets. I remember one that had a little crack in the middle that I used to watch on it Pokemon and Tom and Jerry everyday.

When I used to live with my family, we only had a sing TV for all of us. It never actually resorted to conflicts, but our parents were always people of swift adequacy, so yeah.

I think I'm pretty glad that all the CRTs that we used to have are now dumped. These things were a chore to move around!
