While some people might prefer to Netflix and chill, there are theaters around the world that are worth abandoning your couch for.

While some theaters will entice viewers by making themselves feel more like home, providing comfy couches and even beds, others attract crowds by serving restaurant quality food and drinks that go far beyond the standard popcorn and Buncha Crunch.

These 14 movie theaters around the world that are worth a trip, be it because of their excellent film lineup or their unusual amenities:

Sophie Turner is on fire.

First, her "Game of Thrones" character Sansa Stark turned from damsel to dissident in the show's recent events. She and half-brother Jon Snow are rallying the houses of the North to take back Winterfell.

Now, the 20-year-old actress takes on another iconic role, that of Jean Grey in "X-Men: Apocalypse." As Grey, she'll be learning to live with and hone her telepathic abilities.

Let's take a look back at Turner's meteoric rise to fame.

Sophie Turner started going to drama class at age three, which she says was "so [my mother] could have a cup of coffee for an hour."

Turns out Cinderella doesn't need a ball to meet her prince; she could find him in a bar.

At least that's how Mary Elizabeth Donaldson, now the crown princess of Denmark, found her prince.

And then there's Kate Middleton. Her 2011 wedding to Prince William captivated millions of people around the globe. The two of them met in college.

We've rounded up 18 commoners who married into royal families (and an explainer for why Princess Diana isn't one of them):

Grace Kelly — Princess of Monaco

Grace Kelly began her acting career in 1950, but retired in 1956 to marry Rainier III, the prince of Monaco. They had met during a photo shoot at the Cannes Film Festival in 1955, one she almost skipped. The couple had three children.

She suffered a minor stroke while driving and was killed in 1982 when the car went over the edge of a 45-foot embankment.

Charlene Wittstock — Princess of Monaco

Charlene is a former South African Olympic swimmer. She met Prince Albert II (Grace Kelly's son) during a swimming meet in Monaco in 2000. The couple went public in 2006, at the opening ceremony of the Winter Olympics, and married in July 2011. Wittstock gave birth to fraternal twins in 2014.

Kate Middleton — Duchess of Cambridge

Kate was studying art history at the University of St. Andrews when she met Prince William in 2001. After dating on-and-off for numerous years, the couple married April 29, 2011, and millions of people around the world tuned in to watch the ceremony. They have two children: Prince George, born July 2013, and Princess Charlotte, born May 2015.

Earlier this year, a photo of two expectant mothers posing with their bellies pressed together went viral. They look vastly different at just four weeks apart in their terms and the Internet freaked out.

Both fitness trainer Chontel Duncan and her friend Natalie Smith were heavily criticized about their appearances and questioned about their babies' health. These comments were entirely unwarranted. They both gave birth to beautiful, healthy baby boys.

All women carry differently and baby bellies can look like polar opposites, even at similar stages of pregnancy—and that's totally fine. 

We compared the baby bumps of women who were at the exact same week of their term to prove just how unique each pregnancy is. 

This woman is 17 weeks pregnant.

Jimbocho Den in Tokyo has been awarded the "One To Watch" category by The World's 50 Best Restaurants association.

The One To Watch Award is presented to a restaurant that shows the potential to rise up the 50 Best Restaurants list in the coming years.

Den was ranked No. 37 on Asia's best restaurants list and it currently holds one Michelin star.  

Restaurant owner Zaiyu Hasegawa began his cooking career at a ryōtei, a traditional high-end Japanese restaurant in Kagurzaka where his mother worked as a Geisha.

That's where he got acquainted with ryōtei foods such as sushi.

After years of training, he opened Den in 2007.

Didi Chuxing made headlines when it received a $1 billion investment from Apple.

The $1 billion from the tech giant marked the largest single investment Didi Chuxing had ever received, the company wrote in a statement. As Didi continues its massive battle with Uber for market share in China, it's worth taking a closer look at how the service works.

Scroll down to see the many services Didi offers:

Didi offers seven services through its app, all of which are listed in a grid once you open it.

The app lets you hail a Chinese taxi or private car. You can also book a chauffeur for an extended period of time.

Above you see a Chinese taxi driver using the Didi app.

You can also find and purchase tickets for a Didi bus. Didi has created 33 routes in Beijing and 10 in Shenzen with plans to expand.

Here you see the process for finding a Didi bus based on your start and end location. A bus ride costs between $1.10 and $2.10 and are sourced from licensed travel agencies and leasing companies.

As the official start of summer inches closer, it's time to get the AC cranked up and start thinking of all the movies you can watch indoors instead of sweating outside.

In June, there are many hit movies and TV shows coming to your favorite streaming services, including the Disney box-office smash "Zootopia," Matt Damon in "The Martian," and on the TV side, the new season of "UnReal" as well as the much-anticipated ESPN documentary "O.J.: Made in America."

Here's the complete list. We've highlighted some of our top picks you shouldn't miss in bold.

Science has been tackling new ways to stop death, which includes diving into the world of cryonics. 

Cryonics is an experimental effort to save lives by freezing a person's body who is so chronically ill that today's medicine could not help. Some scientists believe that cryopreservation could be successful in the future, while others are very doubtful, according to BBC.

Photographer Murray Ballard has spent years photographing cryonics institutions around the UK and the United States. "What I like about cryonics is that it gives us a vehicle to consider questions about the future," Ballard tells Business Insider. "You stand a much better chance of coming back to life if you’re cryopreserved than if you’re buried or cremated." Ballard compiled his photos into a book titled "The Prospect of Immortality." Below, see photos inside the cryonics institutions.

SEE ALSO: I visited a facility where dead people are frozen so they can be revived later

For his series, Ballard visited cryonics institutions in the UK, France, Norway, Arizona, Colorado, and Russia. He visited Alcor Life Extension Foundation, pictured below, in Scottsdale, Arizona the most.

Planning to participate in cryonics must take place before death. As of April 2016, the Alcor institute has 146 patients.

Source: alcor.org

The freezing and preserving process starts immediately after a patient's "legal death" is announced. A person can decide whether to freeze their entire body or just their brain. "Legal death" is when a person is beyond help and dies naturally and can no longer be revitalized by current technology.

When I was a kid, I begged my parents for a dog, promising to walk it and feed it every day.

My parents, being generally sensible people, figured that it was unlikely their elementary school-aged son would actually take full responsibility for a live canine. So, given that they're also major nerds, they bought me a robot dog for Channukah.

The techno-pup was pretty cool. Sleek, chrome-colored, and able to wander around a bit and bark, it filled the pet-shaped hole in my little heart — for about a week. But I quickly got bored of the lifeless, essentially functionless thing. And that's what will probably happen to you if you buy Asus's new $599 "Zenbo" home robot.

Zenbo looks, and appears to act, a lot like home robots we've seen in sci-fi movies (and "The Jetsons"). But does it live up to that promise?

Here's what you need to know about Zenbo.

Zenbo looks like the mischievous lovechild of a 2002 'sunflower' iMac and BB-8.

In an 11-minute ad released Monday, Asus touts a few key features of Zenbo. It can trundle up to you with reminders.

It can "tell stories" as well, acting out little audio-visual-motion skits — though it appears they have to be individually programmed as apps.

Every month, PlayStation offers a handful of free games through its premium subscription service called PlayStation Plus. For $49.99/year, you gain access to online multiplayer, exclusive sales on the PlayStation Store, and free games for PlayStation Vita, PlayStation 3, and PlayStation 4!

"NBA 2K16"

Originally released in September 2015, "NBA 2K16" is the latest in the well-regarded NBA 2K series. 

Boasting all the cutting-edge visuals and tight gameplay the series is know for, "NBA 2K16" also has a wide array of online and offline modes, including MyGM and MyLeague, which let you micromanage every detail of your team.

There's also a career mode directed by filmmaker Spike Lee that tracks your player's progression from an amateur playing pick-up games at the local court to full-blown professional baller.

Platforms:PlayStation 4

"Gone Home"

For being such a quiet and contemplative game, "Gone Home" made some serious waves when it first came out in 2013.

"Gone Home" is a short, narrative-based game that puts you in control of a character exploring a home. You'll find documents, photos, and clues that slowly start to shed light on the character's family. In his review of the game for IGN, Marty Sliva says, "'Gone Home' is a remarkable achievement, and piecing together its poignant story will stick with me forever."

Any more details about this game will only spoil the experience for someone who has yet to play it, so download it as soon as its available and give it a shot.

Platforms: PlayStation 4

"Echochrome"

"Echochrome," despite having a relatively inscrutable name, is a simple and innovative puzzle game.

You'll attempt to travel through crazy winding pathways, changing the camera's angle to make traversal through the stage possible. Here's how it works:

Spinning the camera to different angles will change the way you traverse through a stage. Did you rotate the camera to obscure a hole in the ground that was previously a hazard? Well, now that you can't see it, you won't fall into it.

It takes a lot of its visual identity from something like an M.C. Escher illustration, with winding and intersecting pathways that appear to bend the laws of physics.

The future is here.

Science fiction is morphing into the realm of reality each day, as companies develop Hyperloops, autonomous cars, and devices that work using just the sound of your voice.

If you've been dying to say "illuminate" to turn on the lights in a room, or have your favorite song play right as you wake up, you don't need to wait anymore.

Here's how.

As technology progresses, we're actually now at a point where your favorite science fiction movies are running smack in the middle of reality.

Companies are building autonomous cars, researching the functions of artificial intelligence, and even looking to transport people in an insanely-fast Hyperloop from city to city.

And fortunately, you can get in on plenty of that science fiction-y action right in your own home — now.

Once a great retail success story, J. Crew has been struggling in recent years.

J. Crew's sales slid 8% in the most recent quarter, with the company blaming a "challenging retail environment."

It's true — it's rough out there for most retailers— but a walk around the store shows why the company may be having a hard time getting consumers to pay a premium for its clothing.

Here's what you would have been greeted with if you walked into the company's New York City Flatiron store at the end of May.

Promotions are common, especially around Memorial Day, but this eerily reminds us of J. Crew's neighbor, Banana Republic.

Because, just like the ailing Banana Republic, J. Crew doesn't let you forget that you can get an extra percentage off of your purchase.

J. Crew has been working to bring customers back into stores.

Kylo Ren would be thrilled.

In a new partnership between Disney, Lucasfilm, and London-based production company, Propshop, Disney is releasing an incredible replica of Darth Vader's melted helmet from "Star Wars: The Force Awakens."

The Dark Side is more tempting than ever. 

The helmet is one of eight officially licensed collectibles from "The Force Awakens," each re-created with painstaking attention to detail. Kylo Ren's mask and Poe Dameron's X-Wing helmets are available as well.

Read to see how the Jedi masters at Propshop created Vader's mask and a see a peek of the other replicas.

In "The Force Awakens," we learn that Kylo Ren prays to Vader's immolated mask, asking his grandfather for guidance.

Disney and Lucasfilm partnered with Propshop to create an officially licensed replica which you can purchase for only $3,500. (Yes, it comes with the display panel.)

The piece was created at Pinewood Studios, the official production base for "The Force Awakens."

What if a car was made out of wood ?

That's the idea behind the Toyota Setsuna, a new concept car. The car's doors, walls, and exterior paneling are made from different types of wood — and it looks gorgeous.

The car is fully functioning. Under the hood, you'll see a normal, gas-powered metal engine. But, it's too beautiful to be regularly used.

Here's what the pieces look like when they're all laid out.

The pieces fit together with an intricate locking mechanism like a giant jigsaw puzzle.

The pieces are joined together with a traditional Japanese technique called okuriari, which means that the pieces hook into holes in the car without using nails or screws.

Warning: Spoilers ahead for "Game of Thrones" season six.

The upcoming seventh episode of "Game of Thrones" season six is "The Broken Man," and based on the epic teaser, it's going be a great hour of television.

With Margaery Tyrell out of prison and back at the Red Keep, things are going to get interesting between her grandmother Olenna and Cersei Lannister. Plus, we have a lot of action in the Riverlands with Jaime and Bronn reunited, and Brynden "The Blackfish" Tully standing up to them.

Scroll down for a look at the six images released by HBO.

Arya looks out over Braavos. The episode description says that she's making a plan. Hopefully, that plan involves getting the Waif off her back and heading to Westeros again.

Margaery is re-crowned and reunited with her grandmother, Olenna. Septa Unella is still standing guard over her ... perhaps to keep Margaery faithful to the Seven.

Olenna is going to have some words with Cersei. This whole mess started with Cersei giving the High Sparrow an army.

Everyone's allowed a few life mulligans, but by the time you've hit the big 3-0, you should have sorted out most of the reckless habits we tend to fall into as young 20-somethings.

This is especially true for money matters, considering you're close to entering your peak earning years. According to Payscale, college-educated men's earnings peak at an average age of 48 and women's earnings peak at 39.

To prepare for your peak earning years, here are 13 milestones to aim to achieve before hitting 40:

SEE ALSO: 15 money lies you should stop telling yourself by age 30

Contribute at least 10% of your income to a retirement account

You should already be contributing to your employer's 401(k) retirement account, and your 30s are a time to increase that contribution.

Many experts recommend putting aside at least 10% of your income. That may not be possible when you're first starting out your career, but it's a good goal to have by 40.

To work your way up to 10% of more, get in the habit of upping your contribution on a consistent basis — either every six months, at the end of each year, or whenever you get a pay raise.

Invest in something other than your retirement-savings plan

Many experts recommend using investment vehicles in addition to your employer's retirement plan to ensure that you'll have enough to fund your golden years.

If you're maxing out your 401(k) plan, consider contributing money to a Roth IRA or traditional IRA, research low-cost index funds — which Warren Buffett recommends— and look into the online-investment platforms known as "robo-advisers."

Of course, you'll want to make sure that your general finances are in order before you invest. But if you have a sound emergency fund, have prepared for future expenses, and are debt-free, then the quicker you put your money to work and jump start its growth, the better.

Establish savings goals and start setting aside money for big purchases

There are bound to be big expenses in your 30s — student debt, vacations, and kids, to name a few — that require diligent saving.

The best way to prepare for these expenses is to create savings goals, and then set aside money as early as possible. You'll want to adjust your budget so you can contribute a specific amount of money (depending on your upcoming purchases and time horizon) into a savings account each month. Treat this money like a fixed cost, meaning you must set it aside like you would do for rent or utilities.

Pro tip: Set up automatic transfers from your checking account to your savings accounts so you never even see this money and learn to live without it.

Smartphones are becoming more and more central to our business lives (for better or worse).

That might mean an overbearing boss could have easier access to you when you're away from the office, but it also means there are lots of great apps to help you find a new job if you're unhappy at your current gig.

Apple recently put together a list of apps it recommends for job-seekers in the App Store. We went through the list and created a mobile-first gameplan for landing your dream job.

Even if you're not actively on the market for a new job, you can still browse on your downtime using Jobr's Tinder-like interface.

One of the benefits to Tinder is that its “swipe right or left” interface makes it easy to fit into the few minutes you have waiting in line for coffee, or in a cab. Jobr tries to bring that same convenience to job hunting, letting you "swipe right" on jobs you might be interested in.

It’s conventional wisdom by now that Americans aren’t saving enough for retirement. Recent studies have shown that many Baby Boomers might have to live on a mere $7,000 to $9,000 a year during their golden years, based on their current savings (not including Social Security).

If that’s not discouraging enough, financial planners say Americans are making plenty of other retirement missteps. Here are 19 other mistakes you could be making while planning for retirement.

SEE ALSO: 5 dumb decisions that put you at risk of going broke in retirement

1. Planning to stay in the family home

About three in five retirees decided to stay in their home for their golden years, according to a TransAmerica Center for Retirement Studies survey. But that may not be the smartest decision says James Bryan, principal of Cahill Financial Advisors. Rising upkeep costs, renovations and property taxes could make the house too expensive to manage.  The house also may not be suitable for aging in place. “People don't want to let go because they feel like they are betraying the memories,” he says.

Related: The Retirement Cost That 80% of Americans Aren’t Ready For

Solution: Add up the money you’ve spent on your home over the last five years and divide by 5 to get a snapshot of your annual costs. Then, increase that number by 2-5 percent to account for inflation. If it’s too costly for you to handle, consider downsizing or moving to a senior community.

2. Counting on working in retirement

About seven in 10 Millennials, more than half of Generation Xers and over a third of Baby Boomers expect to work during their golden years, according to a recent survey from Scottrade. But there’s a good chance that that won’t happen, according to the TransAmerica survey. Three of five recent retirees said they were forced to stop working sooner than planned because of job issues, health concerns or family responsibilities.

Solution: Plan your second or third career while you’re still on your first. Learn a new skill or a new language and don’t hesitate to take a few online courses – just for the fun of it.

3. Banking on an inheritance

Only about 11 percent of people in the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1979 received an inheritance. And the windfall for many wasn’t big enough to offset a lack of retirement savings. The median inheritance was $11,340, according to a studyfrom Ohio State University’s Center for Human Resource Research. “Your rich aunt might leave it all to charity,” says David Schneider of Schneider Wealth Strategies. “Your parents may not have as much as you think or could spend their money down on long-term care expenses.”

Solution: Talk with your parents about their estate planning and how it might affect your personal finances. Otherwise, save as if you won’t receive any inheritance. If you do get one, create a savings plan for it. The Ohio State study found that adults who get a windfall end up spending, losing or donating half of it.

Sam Trull has been working with animals since she was a teenager. In 2014, she realized her passion for sloths and co-founded The Sloth Institute in Costa Rica.

Last year, she released her first book, "SlothLove," filled with adorable photographs and stories of the orphaned and abandoned sloths she has helped nurture back to health and release into the wild.

Below, Sam has shared a preview of some of the cute creatures featured in her book, as well as an inside look at her sloth orphanage.

The Sloth Institute focuses on sloth research, conservation and rehabilitation. Sam and her team of volunteers take care of abandoned babies with the ultimate goal of releasing them back into the wild.

Because humans don't know a lot about sloths' biology, ecology, and social habits, TSI is focused on education and increasing scientific knowledge about sloths.

The Sloth Institute is not open to the public, as it is in the animals' best interest to avoid humans as much as possible as they prepare to re-assimilate into the wild.

"All of the sloths we work with are in the process of becoming wild, or are already wild! Sloths are much happier when they can go about their day with no interference," Trull said.
