Movie DATES

Your choice of movie can tell me more about you than small talk.

I wouldnt really like to go to the cinema on a first date unless you were going somewere after, like for a meal.

I like the idea of having something else to focus your attention on other then just each other. But, I agree that a movie doesn't allow for enough conversation. I think the best place for a first date is a baseball game for a variety of different reasons.

No, I think it's a good first date. You can be in each other's company but not feel to nervous about trying to make conversation or trying to entertain the other person. After the movie, you know you can at least break the ice by discussing the film and getting to know each other that way.

I don't believe so. If that's the only thing you'll be doing on your date than it is a bad move. That's actually what I did on my first "blind date" with my now husband of 9 years. We first went to the movies than went bowling and had dinner. The whole time I was focused on him though and it was hard to not be able to talk to him, not knowing him but, afterwards it was great, so it's not a bad move but as long as you will be spending more time after the movie or before, getting to know each other.

as long as you have other plans aside from movies, there's nothing wrong with it.

Yeah. First dates need to have conversation, bonding kind of stuff. You can't learn anything about a person in a movie. There's no connections to be made, and the questions of whether or not to hold hands, put your arm around her, etc are too stressful. It's better to have a dinner date first.
