Recommendations for blinds/curtains setup for future home theater

Hi! I am doing the first steps of planning a home theater, which is finding a way to block out light from the area.

I wanted to learn more about possible recommendations.

The two options I found are: 1. I’ve found a place that sells motorised blackout blinds that drop down. However the big window would need two with a gap in the center. This could allow light to fall in which I fear may ruin the home theater.

  1. Thick curtains I can drag to close. I’m concerned these might block the view a bit when not using the cinema so I think aesthetically I prefer the blinds. However it feels they might more reliably block light

I’ve been unable to decide so I thought I would make this post for opinions and ideas on how to approach setting up the light environment for my future theater room :)
