Would you watch a movie if you are forced into watching it...

Where did you get that idea from? I asked my friend who was insisting that we watched this movie together. It was during my college days and our group was known for movie watching. But this movie? I had no idea where from the others on the group got this motivation to watch it! But as I was a part of the group I had to go to watch this one too. Movies in India in those days were about 3 hours long and believe me each one of us was feeling tortured in watching that movie. After watching for about two hours, when we couldnt tolerate any more, we decided to walk out. The best that we could do at that time. Later the group started joking about this movie thing and the friend who later told us that he had got passes for the group after he had won some draw in a mall. Ridiculous that they give passes for such boring movies.

yeah, why not. if that could make someone happy i would be happy too. My friends ever force me to watch a movie. it is okay for me as long as i never watched it before.

No way in hell! I wouldn't watch a film I didn't want to even if Brad Pitt asked me, lol! the last film I saw all the way through that I hated was Educating Rita. the Only reason I didn't walk out ? I was too shy and my mom was liking the film. I felt homicidal afterward! there are horror films , gross out comedies, and especially romantic comedies of today are films I will never see. Horror scares me, If I see a gross out comedy I lose my appetite for a week.and as for romantic comedies? they get me so angry I could kill someone with my bare hands. So I avoid them.

Ya know..my bf like to pick what movie is seen in the Movie theater when I am the one treating. He likes the disgusting horror movies with the blood and sounds; the kind where you look b/w yur fingers. I prefers comedies.

I love to watch movies. Horror classics are my favorites to watch. If i am forced into watching a movie, it would take away all of the enjoyment for me. I would probably still be able to watch the movie. The experience just wouldn't be one of pleasure.

Yessss.. I definitely watched movies even I am just forced to watch it... LOL! Well, it's my MOM... How can I say no to her? We have different genre when it comes to movie but seeing her enjoying the movie we are watching give me happiness and satisfaction too.

My partner likes a lot of films that I don't, usually action films. I usually just pick up a book of Sudoku puzzles or come on here! Occasionally I'll put on a film that he can't get into (usually costume dramas!) and he'll wander off to do some washing up or something. We just have to compromise so that we both get to watch the films we want. Sometimes it requires a lot of patience!

My friends always "force" me to watch a local film with them. I am not too fond of a lot of the actors and actresses in my country and so without any compulsion, I will not watch it. But its all okay, they're my friends. One day I will also "force" them to watch something I like which they abhor.

There are movies that my husband like and I dont but I dont have a choice but I just have to watch it. I dont like watching something I dont like so I always end up sleeping while watching the movie. I think its better not to watch something you dont like.

I'm not fond of watching movies but my friends are. So, most of the time they drag me into watching movies. Sometimes it's worth it and other times it was just a waste of time and money. I don't go to movies by my own will, but right now, since I already have a girlfriend, I sometimes invite her to movies because she likes watching movies. Besides, what's a date in a mall if watching a movie is not included.

Part of our socialization as well as our intimate relationships demand that we make certain compromises. If we want to last long in relationships or maintain long term friendships we have to sacrifice a little. I personally did not enjoy the same movies my significant others have enjoyed in the past but i went along once and a while and trudged through them. Likewise they did the same for my interest in movies. It would not be much fun for both if you only watched what your companion or friend likes to watch or they only watch what you like. So to answer your question, if i truly love the person whether friend or lover, I would watch a movie they like and act as if i enjoyed it. Maybe not very often, but often enough for them to appreciate the sacrifice i am making and make the same sacrifice for me.

It only took me to have this experience only once. He paid for the movie. It was that "Romeo and Juliet" movie several years ago that starred Leonardo Dicaprio. I love his other movies. Of course, he is a great actor but that one---was lousy to me. Someone from work had taken me and paid for the movie. I sat there and it was like watching the Detroit Lions and the Oakland Raiders play football on Thanksgiving. I didn't enjoy it. I thought it would never end. I was confused. I had seen another version of "Romeo and Juliet" years before and had read some of the play but this movie was--lousy(to me). My friend during the movie even asked me how was the movie. When I tried to give a generous reply, he didn't believe me. Making me believe, he knew I would not enjoy that movie and I pondered, "why did he take me?" My remedy for this lesson learned was to pay for my own movies in the future. When I don't like a movie, I walk out. I don't need a refund. It was my choice. As for that movie, I am glad there was no chance for a sequel. You know how that play ends. Odd though, that movie was so--lousy(to me), I don't even recall seeing the ending. As for the Lions and the Raiders, I hope they have a winning season. Go Boys!

I won't say I'm being forced to watch certain genre of movies. It's more of not in the mood to watch during that time. I've always think that it's nice to be open to other variety of movies rather than sticking to just one. If I'm always watching romance movies, over the time I will be so bored with my favourites genre, therefore might give up watching? We need others to push us around, in order to try out different things. Who knows after that once, we will like it? That is not a bad thing, isn't it?

Well it all depends on what movie it is and how bored i am. Say i was bored to tears and i was going to watch the 3rd twilight. &*$% NO i wouldn't if it meant a breakup i would watch it. But if it was a " Hey, do you want to watch Twilight". I wouldn't now sense i am a man i would go with a comedy,action, or adventure. But it all depends. If you are the push over type then you probably watch and hate yourself. Or if you are the forward kind of person then you'll probably leave.

i was forced into doing so couple of months ago. i can't forget that since that was the first and hoping would be the last for this year. my friend visited me last April (Holy Week) and she asked if we could watch Dear John. i thought i won't be liking the movie and indeed i didn't really like it. i agreed to watch because we rarely see each other and shes a friend so there..

This hasn't happened for a few years but there were times when I had to watch a movie because someone else wanted to watch it. Unfortunately when this happened if the movie didn't engage me in the slightest I would usually nod off in the middle of it. I remember this happening when I watched Bridget Jones's Diary, agreeing to watch it just to keep the peace, but then failed to keep the peace when I fell asleep after about 30 minutes.

I'd do it, and if I hated it, I'd write reviews on how much I hated it and get paid for them, so even if I don't like it, I can still get something out of it for having to put up with it.

I was forced to watch a movie before by my girlfriend. She really wants to watch the movie and made me buy the dvd. I was planning on sleeping the whole movie, but I found it kind of interesting. I realized that her suggestions are really good movies that's why I make it a point to watch the movies she wants because she has good taste.

i was forced to watched the Twilight. she read the book and she wanted to see the movie too... unfortunately, i didn't like it and slept the whole time. she still wants me to go with her if she wants to watch a movie that i don't care about but that's what we guys do, right? but if it's a friend then i can always turn my phone off. lol!
