Completely agreed. My TV is some cheap Akai 24" thing, but at least it’s a dumb TV with a built-in DVD player, so I still enjoy it. The speakers on it are absolutely garbage, so that’s why I bother with a separate speaker. I too live in very small housing and frequently move about, so having any kind of speaker system is just not feasible.

For me, it’s a social activity where I can enjoy with close friends. I also don’t have a 4K TV or surround sound system, so the audio and visual quality is miles ahead in the theatre than my 1080p TN LCD flatscreen and Bluetooth speaker.
