Filmdeskundige Gertjan Willems, a postdoctoral researcher at the Ghent University, belgium) addresses this. According to him, it was in the first row, well-known, but in a small, very specific group of people. “The diehardfilmfans with a Cineville pass, its often a big fan of the seats at the front.”

According to Wilson, because they are not the people you have to sit down and be completely engrossed in the film. “People who are late, do not bother, you can use your legs to say, by the light of the screen is where you can write notes on the movie, and the movie is nothing to find, you can then just walk away.”

the Golden spot

Best sound design
Frederique Josemans, the president of Pathe, said that one of the best places to about two-thirds of the style. “It’s a very complex and technical. What it comes down to, is that the sound is up there with the best, it is.” In front of the screen, are not only speakers, but the subwoofer is dominant when you are in the front seat. They say that you have one less thing “in the noise” if you’re in the back seat.

According to Josemans, this is the latest Dolby Atmos sound, which is still in a few theaters used to be, not so much the case. “It’s all about the sound, really, on all sides, as there are many more speakers have been lined up. As a result, the spread in the room a lot better.” In addition, the position of the speakers is very accurate and has a dimension of sound: the 3D sound.

If the movie is in a language I don’t understand at all, and I really get the subtitles to read, I’m actually more towards the back. Otherwise, I look only at the letters.”

But, according to the Oliehoek, who was also in the middle of the room as he made his movies, tv shows, afmixt, the quality of the film is much more important than that is the place where you are sitting. “A bad movie in the best seat continues to be bad. And it’s a good film, it is also the last available seat is worth the effort.”

The best place is, technically speaking, it really is in the middle of the room. Furthermore, it has to be the best place to be, especially to do with personal preference.
