Misc Do you go to movies by yourself?

Sorce · 08-01-2014, 02:52 PM

I normally go with my wife or friends but my wife is out of town and friends are all busy tonight. I really want to see Guardians of the Galaxy tonight, just feels weird going alone. I guess it's because most of the time I go with other people but you aren't really interacting with the people you go with so it shouldn't seem strange.

I know some people go to movies by themselves all the time. So do you think it feels strange or no big deal.

I don't go to the movies at all...

I'm sure Paul Rubins is available. They would have a lot in common I'm sure of it.

Seattle dentist Paul Rubins? Kind of an odd recommendation.

I don't go to a movie to talk to others so yes I go alone now back in the 70's/80's I never went to a drive-in alone,that would be weird.

It probably shouldn't seem weird but it does seem weird. You probably shouldn't care if it seems weird though and just do what you want.

I've done it before. In fact, I've seen both of the Hobbit movies by myself. It's a lot more relaxing because you don't have to worry about answering questions or hearing commentary. Plus my wife won't go see them anyways.

This.

It sounds weird, but it's actually really nice going alone. I've done it once or twice...feels good. And it's a lot cheaper too.

I've done it if its a movie I really want to see and no one else does or can. I usually do a late afternoon matinee. Usually, I only go with one other person when I do go tho.'

Why Not? · 08-01-2014, 02:59 PM

It's my preferred way to go. Who cares if you go with other people? You sit in the dark, watch the movie, then go home.

BigBeauford · 08-01-2014, 02:59 PM

I think it's fine as long as you don't go see Children's movies by yourself.

I plan to see Maleficent alone. My guy doesn't want to see it.

Let me rephrase that and be an adult male.
