Home theater seating consists of chairs specifically engineered and designed for viewing movies in a personal home theater setting. Most local theater seats have cup holder built into the chairs' armrests and a shared Home Theater Chairs armrest between each seat. Some seating is movie theater-style chairs like those seen in a movie cinema, which features a flip up seat cushion. Other seating systems have plush epidermis reclining lounger types, with flip-out footrests. Additional added features like storage compartments, snack trays, tactile transducers (nicknamed "Bass Shakers"), or even electric motors to recline the fellowship are available, depending on the model.

Some people have built upon the idea, and constructed mobile drive-in theaters that can play movies in public open spaces. Usually, these cause a powerful projector, a laptop or DVD player, outdoor speakers and/or an FM transmitter to broadcast the audio to other limousine radios.
