I'll do it from time to time, but on a random weekday afternoon. I find it enjoyable and relaxing, you get to enjoy it w/o any hassle. Never really done it on the weekends though.

i did it once and i heard people talking about me after the movie saying "was that guy really in the movies by himself"

i mean they said it loud enough on purposes so i could hear it. So i never did it again.
weak minded.

if i was you starting today, i would plan the next 10 movies going alone.

thats what michael jordan, jay-z, steve jobs, zuckerburg, malcom x, puff daddy would of done.

i used to be mad self conscious and afraid to go by myself. always wondering what other people think when i walked in a sat down by myself.

after the first few times, i prefer to go by myself. its so much better, dont have to meet and waitup for anyone... can basically find a seat for one no matter what time you go, you watching a movie anyways so you dont talk, after the movie is done.....bounce and go home


the conversation after the movies is strange anyways


props for finally unlocking the secret breh

ive gone by myself and still do. it's relaxing to just do what you want, when you want and on your own term.

I don't understand why people care what people that they don't know think about them. I'll go to the movies or eat at a restaurant by myself.


i've done this a couple of times, only for breakfast tho. i always brought a magazine, newspaper or my tablet with me to do some reading while eating.

I'm within a two block walking distance from my house to my movie theater, so yeah, I've gone alone a lot. If I wanna see a movie randomly on a Monday night, I do.. I don't bother looking for someone to go with. I usually always ask my brother to go, and if he has no interest, I roll by myself.

I'd never say that I prefer going alone, but I'm not going to let social conventions stop me from doing something I wanna do.

I think it's a big deal for women. I often hear women say that they wouldn't go by themselves. However, grown Men it doesn't seem to be big deal. I do think though grown Men are typically more comfortable with themselves and not concerned with what other folks think. That being said, I do both. I go solo or with people... don't really care either way.

just went today. 10am matinee screening, there were 3 solo people(all guys) in the theater, and a family of 3

maybe it's a weird gender thing but i'm pretty sure a female wouldnt be caught dead going alone like that, in fact the only other girls i saw were all in groups



having a massive 25 screen movie theater to yourself and like 100 others is brilliant, more workers than people in the damn thing... everything is so quiet :obama:. couldve literally spent all day there there was no one.. but i had things to do

Females may not want to be in a dark theater by themselves

I work at the movies and women go to them alone ALL THE TIME. Very attractive ones as well.

A lot of them are extremely embarrassed by it so that's why they may lie about going alone.

Some of you are exaggerating with how bad the crowd is.

I've been to the movies plenty of times in my life and I can't ever recall somebody being loud, being on the phone, etc

Majority of people who see the commercial that says turn off your phones prior to the movies do so. Here and there someone might text but thats cool
