TheKoolAidShoto 10/25/11 3:43:00 PM #9:	Unless its a comedy or something similar and fun, going with friends can be a hassle. You gotta wait around for everybody's schedules to line-up, I don't really want to talk to them while I'm watching the movie, I don't want them texting me something stupid, blah blah blah. I have no idea why the movies became this social event. You're sitting a dark room, hopefully quietly and not one of those idiots who keeps talking during the movie who thinks he's funny, munch on some popcorn if you got it, then you leave and b* about it on message boards and Facebook. -- http://www.yourgamercards.net/trophy/a/NathanDrake90.png <cite>TheKoolAidShoto posted [p:476703] in Poll: Have...

Its cool to have someone there with you to talk about it, but I've read so many posts over the years of low self-esteem having mothaf**ers wondering if they go to the movies whispers* alone. Like everyone's gonna point and laugh at you in a dark room because you came there by yourself. I'm reading about people who actually felt PATHETHIC about going to see a movie by themselves. Like...what!? This isn't like going to a resturant where everybody's being social and you're sitting there alone acting like you doing something on your phone, or going to a dance without a date and feeling out of place without a companion. Its one of the most anti-social things mainstream audience pertake in. Whether you're with friends or not, you sit down, shut up, and watch the movie. I will never understand the stigma of "omgosh Im going to the movies alone, I'm a loser now".

MonkClive0 10/25/11 4:12:00 PM #35:	*TheKoolAidShoto posted...* I will never understand the stigma of "omgosh Im going to the movies alone, I'm a loser now". Its one of the most hysterical, bizarre social phenomenons I've encountered on a regular basis. it's probably because for a good number of people, seeing movies on the weekend is the only feasible time for them (homework to do during the week, class or work in the morning, etc.), and if it's the weekend what are you doing alone? you should be spending time with friends -- These colors don't run.
