   Well it might just be me then... but i've always thought the one thing   
   missing is that sense of atmosphere which you'll get either by being   
   in the theatre, or by obtaining a pirate copy of the movie.   
      
   If you are watching a movie alone, that extra sense of a shared   
   experience adds to the enjoyment of the movie. So why not have a 'pirate   
   track', and what better track than that taken from its   
   debute performance.   
      
   Of course it would be tastefully and subtly mixed so you don't get that   
   sense of the guy next to you eating his popcorn, or those behind you   
   discussing the original release etc. Just an enthralled audience   
   cheering or growing in the right places and basically enjoying the   
   experience.
