A year from now, people will be saying "I wouldn't have missed the director's cut, which fixed all those problems the theatrical cut had".
Plus, I've got a great TV, a great sound system, and a BluRay player. It's not like movies look bad at home. Unlike my local multiplexes, which all seem to be plagued by shaky screen stabilisation, lipsync issues, and focus problems. And other customers with BO.
I must admit, the Vue Cinema where we watched Prometheus (with awesome VIP seats), has a frigging fire exit at the bottom right of the auditorium, all lit up and stuff, which cast a very distracting beam of light on the bottom right of the screen.
Cinemas are shit. I wish I lived in London. They have loads of poncey nice cinemas. Like those ones with sofas and stuff. Or am I making that up?
All that being said, I'm still very glad I saw it at the cinema. It was quite the spectacle. Plus, it makes the Director's Cut more interesting if you've seen the cinema edit.
edit: Actually, the City Screen Picturehouse in York centre is pretty poncey I believe. Gonna have to check it out soon.
