How to Create the Perfect Movie Night at Home!

You don’t need to go to a theater to enjoy a great movie experience. You can create the perfect movie night right in your apartment. The best part is that you can wear your pajamas!

Discover Your New Favorite Popcorn Recipe

Making popcorn at home is fun and easy, and we don’t just mean the stuff you throw in the microwave. There are fun popcorn recipes that can be made on your stove to make your movie night special. Bulk popcorn kernels are very inexpensive and allow you to experiment with a different recipe each time. You can also make other popular theater snacks including nachos or chicken wings to spice up your movie night. Unlike the theater, your treats won’t cost you an arm and a leg!

Set Up Your Own Unique In-Home Theater

While we might not all have surround sound speakers or theater sets, most of us have lots of pillows and blankets that can be used to create a super cozy couch setup (or a blanket fort). You can even watch the television in the bedroom and watch right from bed! Change up your seating arrangement to separate Movie Night from the usual night-in watching TV and make your movie screening a fun and unique event.

Watch Movies You Can’t Find in Theaters

There are plenty of superhero movies and action flicks in theaters, but when was the last time you saw an old-fashioned Western or musical in theaters? Explore classic movies you may have never seen, or revisit favorites you haven’t watched in years. You may even discover a love for classic films.

Movie Night via Skype

Enjoy your movie experience with friends over Skype, Zoom, or another webcam connection for a watch party. Synchronize your movie start time with your friends from their homes and watch “together” without leaving the house! After the movie, you can discuss your favorite parts and catch up with your best buddies. You can use movie night to create a “gathering” and connect with long-distance friends.

Movie Night In is a great way to save money and break up your mundane TV viewing routine while staying safe at home. You can replicate the feeling of going out and enjoying a special event without ever having to leave the house.
