does anyone else go to movies alone?

occasionally. i don't find it depressing at all... it's not even a social event in the first place!

I hate watching the Usual Suspects with people who have never seen it before: "Who's that guy? What's he doing? Who stole the van? What's going on? Who's that guy? Kyzer Soze? Who's he?"

Sometimes I think I'd be better off dead. No, wait, not me, you.

Damnation. Someone sent me that pic the other day except they'd photoshopped my school's logo on his poncho. I'm upset now that i didn't realize it was a photoshop job *snarfle*

ive got no problems going alone. its the only way i can get out to see any independent or foreign films, since all my friends ever want to see are the summer blockbusters and action flicks

and i notice a sizable portion of indie theatre audiences are alone anyways, so its not like you stand out at all

exactly. i cant even remember the last time i saw a movie with someone. going alone is way more fun for me. i cant truly appreciete any movie unless im alone.

Every once in a while.

Depends on whether you're going for the social event, or you just want to see the movie. I do lots of things alone, what's the difference?

alot of people feel like a loser going to something like a movie alone. i think movies have become more of a social event than about seeing the movie. so being at it with out anyone is almost "out of place" now. its like eating at a restaurant. its there to provide food, but it ends up being serving more of a social purpose than a food one. i would go to a restaurant alone but i have to admit, id feel weird about it. and i hate that.

1st movie I saw by myself -Listen to Me (1989)

Most recent movie I saw By mysself-my big fat greek wedding (last saturday)

I will see either of these two movies by myself sometime today: igby goes down or read my lips.

Once reserved for royalty, brides and debutantes, tiaras became a popular accessory in the early 90's for fringe celebrities. Now the glittery adornment has been adopted by a new generation of party girls.

eh. i've never b een to a movie alone. i've gone to a movie with my parents a couple times and gotten mad at them and sat alone (life is beautiful, ghostworld) but never gone alone. i dunno why. renting movies and watching them alone is da bomb though.
