Sometimes, a film can be Better on DVD. Sometimes, you do not need to see it in the theatre to get the full experience. Those do not apply to these. This is when a film is a lot better when you see it in the movie theatre, and can even be underwhelming when watched at home. Most films where people just talk to each other for two hours or do not use any immersive special effects would be better viewed at home. However, any film with lots of CGI or other visual effects may fit this trope. Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })This trope is as old as film itself. Movie theaters used to be the only way to view films. However, thanks to the invention of and VHS, as well as the later Laserdisc, DVD, and Blu-Ray, audiences now view movies at home more than in the theatre. |

In aThe Nostalgia Critic editorial, "Can Hype Kill a Good Film?", the Critic explains how your environment can affect your reaction to a movie by bringing up two of his favorite comedies, There's Something About Mary and Borat. He recalls that their comedic timing and shock humor had him laughing out loud alongside an audience at a theater, but then didn't make him laugh as much watching them alone at home. | |

Movies such as Rocky Horror Picture Show, The Room, and Rock 'n' Roll High School are called "midnight movies" due to their prevalence of interactive midnight showings. These have helped the first movie to have the longest theatrical run of any film ever, at 45 years to date. | |

Close Encounters of the Third Kind, while a great story, the last few minutes can feel a little underwhelming on a small screen. | |

One commonly cited reason for why Avatar, once the highest grossing movie of all time, faded almost entirely from the cultural memory is because its immersive visuals were best experienced theatrically. Once it came to home release, the trippy alien sights didn't pop anymore and viewers felt no reason to return to an underwhelming story. | |
