Movie Theaters Survived?

Many of the other mediums Mr. Miller talked about in class demassified because of a new and upcoming technology.  It is weird to understand that movies theaters are still around and in fact never demassified.  A movie theater is a big part of a cultural experience.  Everyone wants to be able to say "I saw it first, and you should have been there".  This is part of the reason movie theaters survived.  Another reason is the social experiences.  People would rather go to the movies and hangout with friends than sit at home alone.  It is also an immersive experience.   There are the large screens, surround sound system, popcorn, and a dark quiet room.  These things are all things most people cannot have at their house.  This lecture helped explain why movie theaters are still around today.
