It's interesting that ratings of films are higher when given by those who watch it in a theater. I think the overall experience of seeing a film is vastly greater than that of watching at home, to the extent that I'd say someone watching at home is at best getting 10% of the possible experience, and even then only when watching under optimal conditions. I doubt people take that into account when rating a film, but it must subtly affect how they come up with the rating, leading even greater credence to the notion that the theater experience dwarfs the at-home experience.

You often cite "A24 Films". What does that mean?

According to Wikipedia, they seem to produce a wide variety of films, such as "Room" and "Moonlight", so I'm never quite sure what h is meant when you lump them in with Marvel and Star Wars.
