It's funny that it needs to be such a social thing because the social aspect is nonexistant for 2 hours. What is social is buying popcorn and talking about it afterwards.
Lol
Grocery shopping alone: Recommended
Renting a movie at the video store alone: Socially acceptable
Going to the pub alone: Moderately socially acceptable
Going to a nightclub alone: Moderately socially unacceptable
Going to the theatre alone: Socially unacceptable
Twilight: Not recommended
Not really.Well, what is normal anyways?
I don't see what everyone is talking about how it's abnormal. It's completely normal.
Why did you feel you should go alone ? You won't be alone there there's other people too you know. Besides it's a LOT more fun if you go with family or friends. If your friends don't want to go then yeah why not go alone if you want to see the movie?. It's not like i'm gonna laugh and point at you, hahaha look at that guy! he's alone...
It's kind of odd but it's nothing that affects anyone and I doubt they'll give much of a shit about it. If you like movies and want to see one and your friends don't or what the fuck ever, go ahead and go alone.
Please note that this reply is in general: When the fact that it was Twilight is taken into account, the answer is "Oh god no."
I would go alone to see movies my friends probably wouldn't want to see like Amelia (which I still want to see). I don't go to the movies much though. Too lazy.
I have to agree with most people in here and say that I don't see the difference between going alone and being with others (besides the pre and/or post hanging out).
I sense that OP is a loser

[quote=Suicide Requim]OH NO! What a freak, he is having fun ALONE!
Seriously, it's perfectly fine. As normal as playing video games alone, i'd say. [/quote]
I sense that this man is too
It's not weird that you're a loner.
It's weird that you went to see twilight and there are 13 year old girls in there, you're older than them and you're alone.
Are you older than 13?

My fag-sense is tingling.
I've never gone to the movies by myself. Usually have 3+ people. That seems strange...
i saw district 9 alone, and wasn't frowned upon
I need to talk about the movie after I see it so it sucks going alone
[QUOTE=evilking1;18769863]Alone = Yes
Twilight = Fuck no
Also it's strange as all loners just usually illegally download their movies.[/QUOTE]
what about the ones who download with a buddy?

Truth be told.
[QUOTE=YoMother;18769883]Why don't you go there with your friends? I don't see the point of going to the movies without someone else.[/QUOTE]
define ''friends''
[QUOTE=Lady Gaga;18777189]define ''friends''[/QUOTE]
People you enjoy being with, and vice versa?
At least you don't pirate em'.
Cheer up, mate.
depends.
are you one of those loners who [i]loudly[/i] mutters that your friend is late or some shit so people won't laugh at you?
no.

Who does that? That's pathetic.
I went to see Donnie Darko, I was alone with my friends in the theater and we shat ourselves and had nightmares.
Twice.

So after you shat yourself you shat yourself again immediately after?
I enjoy going by myself more than going with other people. Mainly because other people suck.
It's not horribly abnormal but I usually see cinema as a social event
None of my friends like me that much so I just go by myself. One time the entire theater was empty and it was me there by myself. I felt so lonely :S
Well I consider it more normal to go see a movie by yourself, than sit in your room all day by yourself, so yes :D
Even though I normally go to the cinema with friends or family, I don't really see why; hopefully they'll just shut the fuck up anyway.
[QUOTE=iatealawnmower;18769829]I went a few days ago to see the new Twilight. I just felt like I wanted to see it on my own cause I really did like the first part. I couldn't help but feel weird from all the sympathy stares I received. WTF? Does everyone need a plus 1 to be perceived as normal in our society?[/QUOTE]
Well I do that too.
I went to go watch New Moon for the hell of it and all the asian girls were like" OH My GOD , one of the few guys WHO WOULD WATCH THIS, blah blah" then they proceed to sit with me for comfort, and i was like o_o.
But Yeah, you shouldn't watch movies by yourself, it gives you an empty feeling. ha ha.
