Welp, certainly didn't need this but im 100% in!

[Ello Sailor]

Damn, they even got Bolo back.

I'm sure it'll stink, but I'll probably still watch it.

[bada]

I'll watch the shit out of that.

Aren't you one of those Destiny Church crazies? I thought it was your shift!

That's what we do - preach/show the love of Jesus through violent/intimidating protest

Twitter is such a cesspool of whiny, entitled shit heads.

Like, imagine reading the comments.

[Strat]

Twitter is just another word for “entire internet” right?

I mean, I go to the movies a lot. Like, once a week. But nothing can ruin a movie like the other people in the theatre. Making noise, talking, running around, yelling. I like going to the theatres that have assigned seating so that I can see beforehand how many people are in there. If it's too many, I do something else (I'm usually by myself). The thing I like about the movies is that the screen is big and I have to watch it in one sitting since I don't have a remote with a pause button constantly taunting my short attention span. At home, I tend to watch movies in thirty or forty minute chunks with breaks in between. I can't remember the last time I watched a movie at home in one sitting. Again, I usually watch movies at home alone. So, yeah, I'm not totally on board with the idea that the great thing about the movies is that there are other people in the theatre. That rarely adds to the experience for me

[VinylGuy]

is so weird when you guys describe the experience of going to see a movie in the theatre as something awful. Maybe crowds here in Argentina are wonderful i dont know, but i always have a great time.

[epilogue]

If I could always have the theater to myself (by which I mean just me or me and my friends that I go to movies with sometimes), I would do that.

[VinylGuy]

I wont.

I love the communal experience of people going there, the posters, the comments. Running into someone i know.

People ruin it for me, absolutely.

More times than not i end up having a bad experience. People seem to be getting worse and worse. This attention span thing you speak of above, i relate to, but unfortunately many people are unable to control themselves at theaters now. Up and down, phone out, talking, etc..etc...

just stay home.

I do love the big screen though

[epilogue]

That's partly why I exclusively go to Alamo Drafthouse now. It's the only place in the city where people aren't super shitty and the venue is so strict about talking and having phones out during the movie. I love it. I can actually deal with people at Alamo. But that's it.

[BurtReynolds]

I like going to movies at like 2 o'clock on a Tuesday. I usually get the whole place to myself. It's just nice to sit in a big dark room and eat popcorn for awhile.

Can’t you do this at home?

I already work from home and I don't have a room that big anyway.
