Generally true. I think the people who still go to weekly showings of Rocky Horror would disagree with you though!
My best movie experience was opening night of Star Wars Ep. IV: A New Hope (Remastered). The crowd was very much an active part of that experience, although most of the rowdiness calmed down as the movie progressed. There is something unique about being in a large cinema with top-end screen and sound, packed to capacity, where everyone already knows every line of the movie and think they have a scripted roll as "the audience".
