"That sounds great" vs "It sounds great" [closed]

Is there any difference between two sentences?

For example, let's say a friend of mine says:

  • How about going to the movies?

I would say:

  • That sounds great.

or

  • It sounds great.

Which one is better ?

Could anyone tell the differenct to me?


Solution 1:

"That sounds great" is better, meaning "The idea of going to the movies with you sounds great to me."

"It sounds great" usually refers to something that actually makes a sound, such as a violin or an orchestra.
