Why are cinemas still a thing and when will they stop being a thing? Seriously i don't understand the appeal of them at all

When they stop making money.
I enjoy going to the movies. It's expensive and arguably pointless, sure. But it's still fun.

What's fun about being surrounded by strangers watching a film on a screen so big it hurts your eyes surrounded by speakers so loud they hurt your ears. Sounds like torture to me and people even pay for the misery
It has become a part of culture.

Gathering together in social groups, watching the old tales and new ones in the flickering lights on the wall...
We've been at this a long time. There's something primal about it. And no VR experience will ever supplant it.
Films are made to be seen on those set-ups. The size of the screen and the sound system spreading out each channel. It also forces you to pay complete attention to the film.
It's a big part of watching films. It's in every way better than watching a film on your laptop.
They are a good place to waste time with your date/friends, as well as gaining a subject of conversation.
tl;dr: you will never understand.
Watch a movie in 70mm analog IMAX and then the same movie on your Toshiba laptop and report back here pls
If you don't like other people go early in the middle of the week when it's empty
Watching movies like Avatar or Mad Max at the theatre was sooooo much better than watching a blu-ray.
local cinema has autistic friendly screenings
should i go?
