How I imagine people who say their TV is just the same as a 70 foot high theatre screen. (lemmy.world)

Sitting close to a giant tv just isn't the same as seeing something on a legit giant screen.

It would be interesting measuring field of view.

I have a 65" 8K television in my living room with 7.1 Dolby Atmos/DTS:X and in general, I prefer that to the movie going experience.

Yeah, I'd be curious about that.

Though I think your brain just knows, maybe subconsciously, that something in your living room is probably not 70 feet tall. So when I rewatched Jurassic Park in theatres, that T Rex was just that much more impressive being 70 feet tall than it was when we watched it on a high quality projector at a friend's.

To each their own though!
