Is It Best To Watch Movies Alone?


A first viewing anyway.. I would say yes, for me, anyway. I'm easily distracted with another person, and there's always going to be a tiny bit of talking, and maybe extra pausing. I think I'd miss more.

However, I wish I was around during the 1930-70s to see some of my favorites with an audience on the day a movie premiered to catch the audience response. The last few times I went to a theater, it was noisy, cell phones, husbands explaining a movie to their wife, programmed laughter, domino effect.

I see "One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest" and if I could, it would be cool to see who would show up, and then observe the behavior. I hope some younger people check it out on the bigger screen.

There are a few videos on youtube of someone sneaking a camcorder into a movie theater. Oldest one I've seen is from the early 80s.

FROM MY EXPERIENCE THE WIVES ARE USUALLY SMARTER THAN THE HUSBANDS.

A full bowl of popcorn and straw riddled with coke is always better then half.
