What's your preference. Me personally on my own it's probably the left side three row back. With friends well I created a thread called best place to sit in a cinema. You can judge my social life from that

Whenever I go, I always sit as near to the back as possible so that there's little strain on my eyes when looking at the screen. I've sat near the front a few times and it's not that great.

At the back - no-one can kick your seat, plus you can have a snog if you want

[Danger Close]

Back row, centre.

My local has more leg room on the back row as well as being about an extra 6-8" higher than the other rows.

[007Fusion]

Mid-Centre. Minimal eye movement and less neck turning.

[CraigSteele2001]

I'd say at least around the middle of the cinema where you are positioned not too far or close from the screen

[dbob]

as far away from any idiots as possible - munching food, talking, texting etc. Too many rude folk at cinemas these days spoiling it for everyone else that I rarely visit anymore.

At the back so I can masturbate

For 2D, fairly close to the front. There's no point paying for a big-screen experience and then sitting right at the back. It's not a classroom. I want the screen to fill my vision for a more immersive experience.

For 3D, sitting closer to the middle distance seems to be better. I suspect the 3D is optimised for the "average" viewer, in the middle.

I usually find that a seat is the best place to sit.

[mialicious]

Back row at the top of the stairs so theres no seats in front of you and you can stretch your legs.

[Dandem]

Back and Centre. Always always.

Shame my friends never agree with me.

[CBFreak]

I very much prefer the middle of the middle. I don't have great eyesight so sitting right at the back makes it a little harder to see and I hate sitting at the front due to neck strain. I also like a fairly straight on view of the screen.

Don't you find sitting right under the projector annoying?

I like the back row, but I always make a beeline for just off-centre so that I'm not right under the projector.

If it is a screen that has a couple or few seats on the opposite side of the stairs, then I'll go there, as there is less likelihood of someone sitting next to me.

I like an end seat with and I like to sit at the back.

[SJ_Mental]

I always end up behind that person with the big head who sways left and right throughout the Movie.

the early bird is a good time to go if you want to avoid people. i made the mistake of sitting right at the back and had a panic attack, i forgot about my fear of heights so definitely the front

.. and bang in the centre of the sound picture.

[Listentome]

Best place to sit... as far away from children or teens as possible. They ruined The Dark Knight Rises.

[-Serotonin-]

Centre.

Never sit on the very back row, as there are bound to be semen stains.

I've started booking my tickets online before I go. Ensures I have a good seat or a seat I really want. Small additional cost for paying over the net but worth it.

[bidleybip]

At the back.

[JDBaby]

Row G or H, central block of seats, right had side next to the stairs.

[sarahj1986]

At the back in the middle. In my local cinema these are classed at "premium" seats meaning Id have to pay another £2 to sit there. Screw that! I now sit as close as I can to the back in the centre, I do try to sit on the aisle aswell but it depends on the size of the screen.

[PaleHorse]

Usually right at the front. I just like it like that.
