Cinema or theatre?

If I were asked to choose between cinema and theatre, of course I will choose cinema without giving a second thought. Why? It is because whenever I think of theatre, the first things that come across my mind is, theatre is meant for old folks and for somebody who is from the upper class society. I know that nowadays, theatre is meant for all but teenagers like me don’t really like theatre maybe because it is a little bit costly compared to cinema.
The thing with cinema that I really like is, you can sit back and relax in front of the wide screen and having popcorns while watching movies. Furthermore, the sound system, the technologies that they have in the movies, always captured my interest. All of these are hard to find in theatre because normally, in theatre the props are limited.
Urm..Talking about cinema and theatre, what are the differences between these two, or they are just the same? The biggest difference that I can see is, in theatre, you can see the actor act live in front of you while in movies it is all pre recorded. Regardless of their differences, both theatre and cinema is to entertain us. I hope one day I can go watch theatre because it can helps me to see the different side of theatre and who knows that I might like it!
