I have three favorite theaters in the world, which I refuse to rank in order of favorites. In no particular order, then, are the Tivoli, which is my home theater, and where I've had nearly every great experience with film in my entire life (especially in my formative years). Next is the National Film Theater in London, which is a government-funded reparatory house (!) that has incredibly comfortable seats, pristine picture and sound quality, and a great clientele and staff.

Of all the things that won, I have about the least trouble swallowing The Departed as Best Picture, as it was my second choice behind United 93.
