The conventional way of watching a movie is going to the cinema, but it's not the case in China where pirated DVDs go rampant, to which the incredibly high price of movie tickets may be a contributor.
I love movies, but I don't go to the cinema. The price is one factor; and moreover, I seem to be cinema phobic. I believe modern cinemas are audience friendly, but once the movie begins, everything is different. The surrounding is as dark as pitch, the images on the screen are as huge as giants and the sound effect is intimidating. Under such circumstances, even a comedy can turn into a thriller.
I guess these odd thoughts originate from my childhood experience. I remember once being scared by the bloody scenes in a martial art movie when I was a kid. It was a nightmare! But what I didn't expect is that thriller became one of my favorite genres years later. I never tried in the cinema, which remains strange to me.

The thing that freaks me out the most is the long pause at the start of the movie; I used to get severe panic attacks.
