Do you you ever go to the movies by yourself?

In the mid of the day, or mid week is fine.

Going to an 8:00 showing on Friday or Saturday is kinda weird, yea.

Never have, but can't say that I never will.
I wouldn't call it weird, I might call it lonely.

Most people thought it was a lot weirder that I was jerking off in the back row while whistling the Andy Griffith theme song during the new jimmy neutron movie :noidea:

I'm planning on doing the same during the new Entourage movie. I've heard a certain someone has a cameo appearance.

I do it all the time. I don't understand why people want to go to the movies with other people. If I am hanging out with other people, I'd rather be doing something which involves human interaction.

I also tend to go to movies as a way to cure writers block or general unproductivity, so its spontaneous. It's not like I can make a social event out of it when I usually decide to watch the movie within 30 minutes of when I go. One last benefit is that it is cheaper during the day ($12 for movie + Popcorn/Drink with refill for each).

Yes, and it's not weird. You're not going to talk to the other person for two hours anyway. I've always thought going to a movie was a horrible date idea for a new relationship (unless you're just making out the whole time).

I also theater-hop when the wife isn't with me. Sneak in some snacks and get a 2-for-1 movie afternoon.

Movies are best when one is alone. The exception was going to the drive-in back in the 70's & 80's... solo at a drive-in is just weird!

Speaking of drive-ins... I kinda feel sorry for kids today because they don't have that option. Back in the 70's & 80's when vehicles had the gear-shift on the steering column, and the car front seats were bench style or split bench style, it was awesome to take a girl to the drive-in!

One would generally go to a drive-in to see a crappy film or a film you already saw in an indoor theater. You would also bring along some refreshments in a small cooler, and have a great time with your date. You and your girl would then spend the evening sucking face, and of course you would eventually drop her panties and get yourself a sticky finger or two!

Ah... the good old days!

When I had some weekdays free I used to all the time. I never thought it was weird.

If you feel weird doing it - when you enter the half empty theater just sit right next to someone else. .

I even put my thingie through the bottom of the popcorn bag to surprise myself!

I used to go alone sometimes when my daughter was little and I wanted to see something my wife wasn't interested in, like "Borat". My daughter's activities keep me busy enough shuttling her around now that I don't have much time for movies.
