Movies That Were Great to Watch in Theaters…

but lost their luster when watching them on the small screen.

For me, it's Gravity and Avatar. Those movies were made to be seen in 3D in a theater but really had not much else to offer other than their visual effects. That becomes very much apparent when you watch them on the small screen.

If only 60+ inch 3D TV screens weren't so fuckin expensive.

Mine is LOTR - still love the movies, just not as exciting watching them from my TV

The Matrix, but probably really any movie is better on a large screen. But The Matrix in particular.

A good surround sound system helps with this a lot. I actually prefer watching movies like Star Wars or Lord of the Rings at home than in a theatre with my setup.

I have a 60" 3D TV, but most 3D movies are shit because they use "safe" 3D (all depth). On the majority of my 3D Blu Rays, the best 3D is the menu screens.

Cloverfield

It actually seemed like there was a big lizard in the city. That movie would suck on the small screen.
