Are You Watching Movies In Your Computer On Tv

If you watching movies on your computer, do you watch it in your bed? I watch movies on my laptop and in my bed. Some people need to watch movies on big screen, for me laptop is big enough to see what I want to see. What is your preference and why?

Oh Pola, I have not watched a movie or TV for over 2 years. I am hoping to be able to start watching them again on a TV real soon. [Goodie123]
We all slow down , after a long day Pola. [Goodie123]


I usually prefer tv for watching movies because when i do on laptop i always end up getting distracted by the net and forget about the movie :p But at the moment i always watch a tv channel online that also has movies, so i usually watch them there and i dont mind that too much :) [JoMarch]
I like to watch all movies in my bed...lol [polachicago]



I am watching movie in my laptop and also in my desktop. But I watch only movie in a proper place like in my audio visual room or in my entertainment room using my desktop or to my laptop. I use only my laptop inside my room or to my bed if I have a someone need to talk in chat room. [aries_0325]
I never chat in my bed....but watch movies... [polachicago]


I prefer watching on the Tv, even though the clarity is better on my laptop. [mipen2006]
yes, for some reason clarity is much better on small screen... [polachicago]



I go three ways here. 1. I have a 50" big-screen with surround sound and all that jazz that I usually watch movies on. 2. I have a 22" widescreen monitor that works great to watch movies (usually TV shows I may have missed) on there when I am taking a break from work and not on MyLot 3. I have a widescreen laptop that I can use to watch movies from as well. In bed... where I am now (thought you needed to know that!). Thanks great post. Zelo [zeloguy]
Bed is always a good place to snuggle up and watch a good movie... finish up and then go right off to sleep. Sweetest of dreams. Zelo. [zeloguy]


All I have is my computer, my laptop to be exact. The lap top is fine to watch TV or movies on for me. I don't mind the big screen but it is not necessary. Ainge [Aingealicia]
No you are not. My laptop is my life you could say. However on TV after all the days news is gone and I can turn off the bs of the day. I have a tendency to watch Family Guy and Futurerama. Ainge [Aingealicia]


Hi polachicago! Sometimes I watch movies in my computer but not in my laptop because my laptop is really an old model. hehe.. However, I prefer watching movies on TV and really don't watch in bed. We don't have TV in our bedroom. Take care and have a nice day! :) [faith210]
I am lazy watching movies in my bed...:) [polachicago]


I don't have a dvd player, I was about to save up for one and realized that I could use my computer instead! So that's what I do I do without the dvd player and save money by loading the dvds up on my computer, I have a big screen so it's better than running films through my portable in my bedroom. I lay on my bed and watch films with the lights out and a glass of red wine and chocolate, that's my preference. [wolfie34]
I think that we have the same preference... [polachicago]


I like to watch my movies on my 20" computer screen, you don't need a TV to watch movies as long as your monitor is more than 19". [Blabla10]
I agree, I love to watch my movies on my laptop...lol [polachicago]


I don't ever watch movies on my laptop, pola. I have thought about it, though. Does that count for something? [Transdisc]
ops, means that I am lazy... [polachicago]


The laptop stands at the end of my bed and then I watch movies. It's very comfortable! [kilian]
I keep my laptop close when I watch movies... [polachicago]


I just watch the TV lol When I go to bed I read my Book as I love reading It is not often I watch TV but when I do it is in the Living room My Computer is here to lol so I can do both [gabs8513]
for some reason I don't watch TV at all... [polachicago]


I have never watched a movie on my computer. I just have a desktop and it would not be that comfortable to sit at it and watch a movie. If I had a laptop I might sit in bed and watch a movie on it though that would be nice. [luvstochat]
yes, it is very nice to watch movies in my bed... [polachicago]


I dont watch movies on my puter just never have tried it and I have a tv in my room I watch one in here and one in the front room so I dont feel like I need to on the puter lol [Lakota12]
cant use my lap top the kids are using it for thier puter for their puter went cuput lol [Lakota12]


I know people that watch movies on their iPods but are not happy with a TV unless it is 50 inches. I usually watch on TV. I keep my computer out of the bedroom, I am addicted to it enough when I am up. I brought it into the bedroom, I would wake up during the night and pick it up and start using it, which would not be a good thing. I have never watched a movie on my computer -- yet. [Debs_place]
you may try once...it is fun...:) [polachicago]


I watch movies, and televison shows all the time on my computer. I try to watch them with my family because I have a 22 inch flat panel monitor so its like watching it on television, and if thats not good enough I can watch them connected to my television. There is a great site that I go to that has all kinds of movies and tv shows its awesome, I think that you'd like it. www.joox.net Its great. [SilentRose19]
thank you , looks great....:) [polachicago]


I want to warch movies in Big screen Only. I prefer a cinema. In Cinema you don't have commercial break or you don't have option to change the channel. You will be able to watch the full movie with 100% attention and that gives 100% satisfaction. It also gives a sort of togetherness if you are going for the movie with family or friends [bijuparekkatt]
I guess it is all in personal preferences... [polachicago]


I have a 27" in my bedroom, but prefer to watch stuff on my 60" in the TV room. In fact I am about to get a 72" DLP HDTV. That type of screen gets you right into the action in a way a smaller screen never will. You are there!!! [IddiKlu]
Man is always into bigger screen...:) [polachicago]


Well i´ve always watch on my computer...Anyway i have this good chair that keep me warm!! [Saicows]
watching it on my computer if fun for sure...;) [polachicago]


I watch movies on my tv never on laptop because I haven't had the chance to watch a movie on my laptop since I do schoolwork and do other things on my computer but I do plan on watching some of my dad's dvds I hope sometime soon....or whenever [sweetangel88]
doing homework is not fun, isn't it? I wish to have computer when I was in school...:) [polachicago]


I watch almost all movies on computer with my 19" lcd monitor..this is because my dvd player is not working for the past 6 months..lol...but it is better to watch it in TV i guess.. [undertaker17]
I watch it in my computer and it makes me so happy... [polachicago]


I usually watch movies at the cinemas or on tv thru dvd. but sometimes there are old movies I wanna watch that aren't available on dvds so I watch it in the internet. but recently I haven't been watching movies on dvd on tv because whenever I get home, I would only sit down in front of the computer and surf the net. ^__^;; only when I'm at work I can watch movies on dvd but on the laptop. ^__^ [secretbear]
I wish I can watch movies at work...lol [polachicago]


I prefer to watch movies on tv. But currently my DVD player broke down and I have no choice to but to watch movies on my PC until I get a new DVD player. [saferain22]
can you still watch movies from Internet? [polachicago]


I watch adult movie on pc and the rests on TV. [anotherbirthday]
ops, we didn't talk about adult movies.... [polachicago]


Nope. The room's not big enough for it. I usually watch them on TV if it's something I like but that happens rarely. [quickquick]
Oh? Then what do you usually watch? [quickquick]


I watch movies on my computer! Since my computer is just next to my bed, sometimes, I move the monitor a bit so that I could sit comfortably on my bed. I guess I am really used to the setting of my room, therefore, I find it most comfy to watch things on my computer instead of my living room tv. [wondericequeen]
yes, it is comfy for me too... [polachicago]


i prefer to watch it the theater or in my room or in my bed... i don't like watching it in the computer at all... i get uncomfortable... XOXOX [princesslexie1001]
depends on computer I guess.... [polachicago]


I like TV or big screen rather than pc or laptop. I tried watching videos on pc flat screen and I don't like it. I don't mean large TV screen, but at least bigger screen than my pc. I don't like staring at pc too long anyway. I already use pc for other things. [LittleMel]
Maybe I switch my watching after I start remodeling...will go beck to big screen soon.... [polachicago]


You are right - it is a great fun watching movies on computer, while sitting on your bed. I watch movies on my computer, but it is a Desk Top. My PC is not in my bed room, so I cannot enjoy the luxury of watching a movie while lying down on my bed. I just sit on my sofa and enjoy the movie. Nonetheless, no comparison can be made between a full screen and computer monitor. It is always more enjoyable to watch a movie on a big screen than on a computer monitor. Sometimes, I see movies on computer because I cannot spare time to watch it in a theatre. :):) [dpk262006]
Sensible people do things in a sensible manner.LOL! [dpk262006]


Hi dear first i am not much into movies and the movies i watch, are most of time on TV , but i watch them in Bed we have 20" TV in bed room so watch through cable other thing i dont have lap top LOl [cupid74]
lol yeah one good reason take care [cupid74]


I prefer to watch movies on tv. But I just ordered a 22inch lap top. When it gets here I will be watching movies on it. [babystar1]
22 inches laptop? wow, big screen, good for you...:) [polachicago]


I watch on both but I should say I prefer on tv coz of the distance and the sound is better . [Cannonball]
I am sure that sounds means a lot to you...:)) hugs! [polachicago]


When I watch a movie I like to see the graphics and I can see them better on a big screen. I have watched it on computers before but I just prefer to watch them on the tv. [shymurl]
Makes sense to me..:) [polachicago]


I don't usually watch movies on my computer. I like to sit down on the sofa with kids and hubby and watch the tv. My screen is only 17 inches and it doesn't feel too confortable to me to watch movies. SPecially if it's 4 of us watching hehehehe SO yes.. tv is my preference. On the other hand the bulkiness of my tv bothers me. ISO I would really prefer to have one of those plasma or LCD that we can hang on the wall... but that's another story:):):) [arkaf61]
watching movies with family members is fun..........:) [polachicago]


I watch TV from bed all the time, so probably if I had a laptop, I'd watch movies in bed. Maybe I could watch a movie and icq with a friend who was also watching lol. [SuzyPuppyChese]
Yes, I was watching movies on TV, but now I like it on my laptop.... [polachicago]


i also like watching movie on the laptop which i find it more interesting. [usyda1]
I just fond it very easy and comfy... [polachicago]


hey same here! Whenever I watch the stuff that I've downloaded I will always watch it on my bed. Hmm come to think of it, whenever I use my laptop in my room I will be using it on my bed. More comfy ;) [kevsgirlalways]
yes, it is.... [polachicago]


Even thou my puter is set up to watch movies in various modes, I have yet to do that. I watch movies the old-fashioned way...on my TV. [blackbriar]
I like to watch it on my laptop, because it is cold outside and I like to be under my warm comforter... [polachicago]


i have watched movies on my computer..net flix give me free movies it goes by how much i spend...this month i cut the movies down so i only get two hours but i have been so hyper now that it hard to watch movies.. dieting can do this..i go to the gym a lot and swim and work out..but at home its the computer or watch tv in bed...with headphones as don't want to bother my wife.. but i don't need a big screen either...but sometimes it takes me a long time to watch a movie as either I fall asleep or lose interest..but i did see brue willis movie and that kept my attention..same as when 24..but i only watched this on dvd..and watched the whole series at once..lol [asawako48162]
yes, it is now good for you health to be on the computer for too long....same with TV [polachicago]


i like to watch a movie on the tv as the screen is big as for the laptop i feel it is okay to watch something confidential and private without any disturbance [jal1948]
isn't it great to be able to watch with headphones? [polachicago]


Well i have to say that i do not watch alote of movies lately, but when i do i pick them carefully. love documentary movies, and foreign ones. i do watch them on my home computer. and i do not feel like i am missing anything because i did not watch them on the plasma. i like to turn off all the lights and see them on the small screen, it keeps me concentrated. :) [liranlgo]
I am the same...sometimes I fall asleep.... [polachicago]
