They get rid of distractions.

Film buffs switch off phones when in theaters. At home, they close the doors, turn off anything that might distract them, even tell their friends or family members not to disturb them, and watch the film through and through as though in a movie theater. Joe Cianciotto.

They position themselves in a comfortable (but not too comfortable) manner.

At home, film buffs set up everything from dimming the lights to shutting the drapes to prepping the snacks and drinks before watching the movie.

They don’t overthink on the first viewing.

As difficult as it may seem, film buffs try not to overthink things during the first viewing. They try to take in the experience and leave the more technical insights like on cinematography, dialogue, and editing the next time they watch. Joe Cianciotto.

They are immersed.

Probably the most important thing film buffs do is to be immersed in a film. They can imagine being part of the movie as if the characters are right in front of them. Joe Cianciotto.
