They're both pronounced the same way, so it wouldn't matter which one you say.

^ Same here.
I don't do it at school because the teachers don't accept it spelled that way, but I personally like 'colour' better. |

Agreed; and colours just simply looks better. Now then. Theatre or theater?

I usually spell it colors, but sometimes I spell it "colours" if I feel like writing something fancy.

Colors.
But sometimes I use: "favourite" or "theatre" instead of the other way. |
