Bingo! We might even have the same TV as yours. Great minds, and all that.

That's wonderful. Glad it works just fine for you to not have to deal with going out of the house to see a quality movie. For the most part, I feel the same as you do regarding movie theaters as I've had a high end home theater setup for quite some time now. However, it's also good to be able to get out of the house some and invest time in my daughter by doing things a 14 year old girl enjoys doing. When I was able to carry concealed in our local theater, the cons with regard to $ and distractions to which you allude to were considered a very small investment considering the value of investing time with my daughter doing something she enjoys.

When I get old and have no one else to think about, I may take the same tact as you have. Until then, I'll watch my 60" tv with 7.1 surround sound most of the time and then take my daughter to another theater in which I can carry concealed.
