Here's what I miss, and it mostly just shows my age, and that's truly huge screens.

Modern flat panels are so large/cheap that they're a no-brainer in place of most modern theatres. OTOH, the peripheral vision-spanning screens that used to exist were really a spectacle. I remember seeing 'Waterloo' (Rod Steiger) when it came out and that was really something on a giant screen.
