Ask HN: Why doesn't Netflix add a “Theater Mode” that recreates the worst parts?

3•amichail•1h ago
The idea is to recreate the entire movie theater experience, including the worst parts.

This mode would add audience reactions like laughter, gasps, and clapping at key moments, so movies feel like an event again.

But it would also faithfully recreate the true theater experience:

* People shouting comments at the screen like they are part of the movie

* Someone standing up at the exact worst moment and blocking your view

* A person behind you explaining the plot to their friend in a whisper that is somehow louder than normal talking

* Random coughing fits that last way too long

* Someone’s phone lighting up like a small sun during a dark scene

* Constant seat shuffling and aggressive snack rustling

This feature would remind people why watching movies at home is better. Conveniently, on Netflix.

What do you think of this idea?

Well some of us have a distracting “home mode” that we enjoy mandatory focus / phones off / quiet of a theater.

Barking dog, kids asking me to do something for them, loud YouTube in the next room, someone wants to engage in conversation, slack message from coworker with my work laptop nearby
