MOVIES (going it alone)?

Who here has wanted to see a movie so much, but without friends or lovers or family that was willing or able to go with you, that you were willing to go it alone.

How Many Tickets Please?

One.

small popcorn. move your feet lose your seat, and the whole 120 yards.

What was the movie if you were strong enough to go it alone?

Star Wars (revenge of the sith) for me.

I think the last movie I saw alone in the theatre was Memoirs of a Geisha.

I've gone a few times, though. No biggie. smile

I see movies by myself often. I enjoy going with my boyfriend, friends or by myself. I don't get why people are adverse to doing to a movie alone. Sometimes, it's a lot more enjoyable that way.

well, one thing is for sure, you don't have to "Agree" on what seat is the best angle to watch the movie from.

I've got a question for you then. Why is it if I put, and I had to go back over the tread to make sure, a thread out about going to movies alone, why is it everyone keeps saying:

"it's no big deal" as if I ever said it was a big deal?

According to rumour - The spooky thing is, I was going to post how Aliens movies would have benefitted from an "Earth" invasion.....

Here is a quote from Wikipedia (I just googled Alien5)

Rumors also presage an Alien 5 movie in which Xenomorphs reach Earth.

Cool !!! lol

My work schedule is so erratic that I never know when I'll be able to snag a friend or loved one for a movie. So, I go to the movies alone a lot if it's something I really want to see. Especially the heavier films or art house fare. Most of the more commercial blockbuster things I wait for on dvd, the I plan a night to invite people over to watch with me.

sometimes i'll just walk by a threater and get the urge to see the show and walk in. if i plan to go alone i like going to the matinee showing. the less crowded the theater the better, for me

no big deal smile

I often attend movies alone. I enjoy being able to concentrate solely on the film.

It would be a ways down the line. He's touring now until October, then working on the new Halloween film for a fall 2007 release.

You are mistaken. Zombie has been given the greenlight to redo the original Holloween Movie. It's a remake, it isn't another instalment.

Yes, I know about his touring schedule. He gives a good show.
