I like 3/4 of the way back in the center. In the first few weeks the movie is out, I will get there early. Later in the run I have found that there are often only a few people in the theater and I will get there just before it starts.

I like to sit in the middle (the center). I think the view is better. In all the films that I see only sit in the middle (the center).

Half way up in the center. I think this has a lot to do with wearing bifocals, I like being even with the center of the screen.

I like to get to the cinema early enough to pic up a sit 3/4 of the way from the movie screen in the exact center. I can't focus on the movie when I'm on the front row and my eyes get tired as well. The only matter about the last rows are the groups of teens that tend to sit there and make as much noise as possible, they almost drove me crazy when I went to see POTC 3...

I like to sit at the back, or near the back. If I sit too close I get a headache.

And I always get there early to select the "perfect" seat.

I like to sit half way up in the center, I feel like I get more of the movie then. But in Norway we get the seat number when we buy the tickets, so we can't always decide where to sit. And we can't come early to get the best seating....

That's exactly the spot our family likes to get when we go to the movies too. Gotta have the rail to put our feet up. If not there, then I actually like the last row of the front section of stadim seating. Close enough to feel like your 'in' the movie, but your not looking straight up into the nostrils of some actors. (Not that I mind that if it Johnny we're viewing at the theater lol) :) Laura
