That's Why These Seats Are the Best a Movie Theater

Big screens, powerful sound equipment, mouthwatering popcorn aroma, and the atmosphere of excitement — modern movie theaters know a thing or two about how to impress their audience! But even if you're a serial moviegoer, you might still not know some cool cinema facts.

Have you ever heard, for example, how a movie theater screen is called "the silver screen"? That's because earlier, they added real silver to the movie screen material! It made the screen surface very reflective. Or instead of silver, manufacturers sometimes used aluminum — it has the same reflective features. But the coolest thing is that silver screens are back — they're perfect for 3-D movies!

SUMMARY:
- Most movie theaters have pearlescent screens. Such screens not only have good contrast but also see to it that the image isn't too bright.
- There are 5,500 tiny holes for each square foot — and they're made not for better ventilation, but for clearer sound!
- Some movie screens are tightly attached to the wall, but some are "floating" (meaning that they are fixed to a separate frame).
- Sound equipment experts are sure that if you want to enjoy the best quality sound, you should always pick seats in the middle of a row.
- Doctors, on the other hand, are more worried about your health than impressive sound effects. They ask you not to choose the seats which are right in front of the screen.
- To get totally engrossed in the action unfolding on the screen, choose a place where the sides of the screen will match the edges of your peripheral vision.
- Movie critics are sure that the best seats are at the sides of the auditorium.
- Three-D cinematographers always choose seats in the middle of the auditorium - usually somewhere around the 6th row.
- As for motion picture technologists, they prefer seats in the middle of a row because that's where the screen brightness is the best.
- In every movie theater, there are cameras directed at seats. It's an important security measure that helps to prevent theft and all kinds of improper behavior.
- Mondays and Wednesdays are believed to have the lowest traffic, and if you want to enjoy the movie without getting lost in the crowds, go for these days.
- Cinemas don't make much money from ticket sales because studios get the lion's share of box office revenue.
- If you live in a big city, there's a chance that you might once notice a famous actor sneaking into their own movie!
- When you're watching something in 3-D, your eyes are informing your brain that you're moving. But the inner ear, responsible for sensing motion, argues that you're still firmly planted in your seat.

Where's your favorite place to sit in a movie theater?

[taurusnyy]

Long story short, the middle seats are the best duhhhh.

[AhmdIsmail]

I appreciate the fact that today we can book our movie tickets online so we have a fortune of time to make our research and watch videos like this to know exactly which seats are the best. I remember when I used to buy them at the tickets window and I only had couple of seconds to make my mind before the people in the line behind me would get mad 😁

[iniyeokocha]

I've kinda always preferred back seats but now I'll be gunning for the middle seat, lol. And weekdays in the afternoons have always been my thing, weekends are always unavoidably crowded and way more expensive in most cases. Thank you for this informative video!😃

[leviharlan]

Now everyone is going to sit in the middle, and it will be hard to get the GOOD seat.

Who else is watching BrightSide right before going to bed?

I find many theaters are layed out different. I'm not an avid goer but my favorite seat is the split about 1/3 of the way back from the front. there is a banister before the slightly lower seats with a large walk isle in front of me. it gives tons of leg room, can even use the railing as a foot rest if no one is siting in front of you, and tall viewers won't block the screen in front of you.

[bonoki]

my personal seating preference in cinema auditoriums is in the back row... almost underneath the projection window.
live action IMAX 3D is a much better film experience than regular 3D... however animated or CGed films in 3D are diffidently worth it.

[htps]

am I missing something here because I’m never early to a movie

[fuzzypanda]

Obviously the middle seats are the best, the real question is how far back to sit. Seems about a third of the way from the back is the best spot. So if there's 9 rows, aim for row 6 or 7.

If you can't go 1.5 hours witout answering your phone, you be better off not going.

[imaniketu]

for normal 2D
middle of entire hall width & 2/3 distance from screen
for normal 3D
middle of entire hall width & half distance from screen

for IMAX2D & IMAX3D
middle of entire hall width & whichever row comes in front of the vertical middle of the screen (kind of trial and error method for first time users)

[humblerxcks]

When you get here so early you don't know what to say

[hypersecures]

Finally this question will be answered

[chillmushroom]

Acually it depends on who u sitting next too. Their are some people that like munching on their popcorn like if they were eating some candy pop

[hydroman]

Me and my family’s favorite seats are in the middle from front to back behind the handicap section and the middle row. There is a separation bar there where you can put your feet up

[BeLeaf]

Just booked my Spider-Man No way home tickets in IMAX (Dec 16, 1055pm EST)… went for middle seats 💪💪💪

[tonaelieisar]

I've went to a movie before and nobody else was there, except my mom. It was greaaat!

[yaytuber]
