Some of my friends find it weird that I can watch movies by myself. I told them I do it whenever I am stressed but still they say I can find other options to cope with stress. They say that it's scary and boring to watch a movie at movie house alone. Have you tried it yourself? I still do it sometimes.

I watched Resident Evil by myself. It's definitely a different experience. I remember the movie more if I watched it with friends. I remember watching X-Men: Origins with friends and it turned out to be a really good experience. It really depends on the movie. If it's an action movie, then watching it by yourself isn't too bad but if it's a comedy movie, you might find it a bit lonely.

Then my story would make then sleep with the lights on! I went to see the movie Biutiful all alone a theater. I mean I was the only person in the theater! It was fun. I felt like I had my own movie room! I always go to the movies alone. If I can find a film I want to see, I go. Scary? No? I go in the day. Boring? No unless the movie is boring!I feel so sorry for your friends. I guess they are more worried about how people see them than the Actual film. Silly me. I never think about how people see me, I go to watch a good movie!

yes, i do. sometimes i also go for a movie by myself, it is more freedom if we go by ourselves without dating other friends. sometimes when you are available, but your friend not, so i prefer to go myself in order to wait them free.

Oh my gosh Ive watched tons of movies by myself and I've thoroughly enjoyed each and every moment of it. Like you, sometimes when I'm stressed and not in the mood to be around a crowd I either stay at home and watch a couple movies, popcorn and all :-) and I've even gone to the cinema by myself. At times I just don't feel like going with my boyfriend or a regular friend, and I totally enjoy myself, popcorn and all :-).
Sometimes, one needs to be by themselves, and if you choose watching movies by yourself, it in no way makes you weird, not at all.
So don't study your friends and their nonsense, you keep on having your movie nights with your self when you want to, rest assured that you're a very normal person.
Happy movie watching :-)

I have never tried to watch a movie in a theater alone. But personally I think there is nothing wrong with it. For me,when you watch a movie, your attention is on the movie, so there is no need if you have companions or not. Plus its also healthy to have a time for yourself.

Do you mean the cinema? Then no, I have never done that before. I wanted to but I would get really depressed, seeing everyone with people and you are the only one alone. I watch movies at home by myself a lot. I find it better watching movies alone because you don't have people talking to them self during the movie. Like "Did you see that!" or "I know what is going to happen!" Or if they already saw the movie; "You know why? It's because ...." People talking during a movie is really annoying to me, just wanted to make that clear Lol!

I assure you that watching movies by yourself is not weird at all. I do it frequently, whenever I have free time or I want to watch the particular movie. Sometimes, I will not ask any friends to company me for a movie, simply because I want to watch that movie but my friends are not interested. It's simple, I will just go to a cinema and enjoy the show. It is never scary & boring, in fact, it is enjoyable and satisfied. :D
