I was wondering how much of GBS prefers having the theater to themselves? What are the perks? Do you eat loudly?

I usually go alone to bad movies like Kick-rear end 2 and Sin City 2 so I can have the whole theater to myself and fall asleep and force an usher to wake me up at closing

No I with my wife, or if she can't because of work and I really wanna see it I'll go with a group of friends.
The idea of going to a movie by yourself is weird, half the fun of it is talking to whoever about the movie afterwards.

I once went to a movie by myself but only because every single one of my friends was too busy to go with me. It was ok.

I'm married so I need to take the missus along usually, but I often went alone while single. After a good film you are feeling a bit dazed and the last thing you want is someone going "meh, I didn't really like it"

years ago i was very bored and thought id just go to the movies and i didnt even see what was on but when i got there because i was in a relatively small town at the time the only thing i could see was anger management so i saw that and i dont think i've gone to the movies alone since it was a pretty bad experience.

edit i thought the video would show the part where moss says "they say pedophile in america maybe you should move there" but they didn't show that part that was the whole point of pasting that video i am sorry for wasting your time with this

Went alone once because there was this kind of niche documentary I really wanted to see and none of my philistine friends wanted to go

I was probably the only person there under age 50. Was a good documentary, though

comedies tend to make the worst movies to go to.

Better to wait for the unrated version to come out on DVD.

Placeholder.
When I was a kid/teen I saw movies alone a lot because my mom & I have different tastes so we'd go to the movies together and then see different movies. (Like, I think when I first saw Pulp Fiction she was watching The Shawshank Redemption.) As an adult I always go with either my girlfriend or friends because I want to share the experience but if there was ever a movie I really wanted to see & no one else does I don't think I'd have a problem going alone.

Absolutely. Can't stand it when you go with people and they need to keep adding little quips. Then after the movie, they're like "WHAT DID YOU THINK" and I'm like "Idk. I need time to process it all"

That's why I go by myself. If you want people to back off, just bring a pad so you look like you're a reviewer. That's what I do and it works just fine.

I mean I'll still go in a group setting to socialize or perhaps to take a woman on a date, but if there's a movie I REALLY want to see I'll skip the peanut gallery.

It's not like you can socialize during a loving movie unless you're an rear end in a top hat. I got to some movies alone and some with friends, but we always do other poo poo like go out to eat or something too.

:coolfish:

it's p simple imo, comedies and action flicks are for seeing and laughing at with friends. more serious stuff is for seeing alone or better yet waiting until it comes out on bluray/netflix and torrenting it paying for it and watching it in the privacy of your home like a responsible adult
