Hi Michael, I agree with everything you have pointed out. As far as my personal experience is concerned, I just cannot tolerate being anywhere close to the lower sections. The screen is so large, and combined with the steepness of the theater, I just get extremely uncomfortable and just cannot enjoy the film- any film. It definately is a vertigo like effect ( I look up, I look down, I look up.................). I am obviously in the minority, otherwise the whole concept of stadium seating movie theaters would have long ago failed. Anyway, I seek out theaters with traditional seating arrangements. If I do go to a stadium seated theater, I make sure that I get there 30 mins ahead of showtime, so I can sit in the back row( I cannot stand people chomping on pocorn behind me either!)
