Anyone go to the cinema on their own?

[Will.]

Just perched and booked to see that the new Spider Man movie next Friday on my own.

I have my tennis lesson and my club is like right next to the cinema so it's handy!

I would always go the cinema with nan so will be going on my own for the first time!

Anyone else go on their own?

[Braden]

Yes! I literally love it, I find that I engage more with the film when I go on my own.

[caprimint]

I don't go to the cinema ever but I might one week when there is a movie on that I'm potentially interested in seeing because my one of my housemates works at the cinema and gets to take 4 friends for free every week.

If I were into seeing movies though, I would definitely go on my own, don't see the issue with it

[Will.]

Yes! I literally love it, I find that I engage more with the film when I go on my own.

Iconic! I'm quite excited but nervous going on my own.

[Daniel-X]

Never done it myself because I'm one of those people that find being on my own really embarrassing and so on but I wouldn't judge others who do it at all

That's really good getting to take 4 people for free!

Yeah I agree, like I cba trying to find someone to go with. Too much hassle!

I just wanted to book asap! :laugh:

[LukeB]

I've done it once which i was quite nervous about but really it makes no difference at all because when you're watching it you don't even socialise with your friends.

[Niamh.]

Not really because someone in the house usually wants to come but I'd have no problem going on my own if no one wanted to come see a film that I wanted to see

[Will.]

ME!

I'm going in the day so there shouldn't be too many people. I completely get what you're saying. :laugh:

[Will.]

Not really because someone in the house usually wants to come but I'd have no problem going on my own if no one wanted to come see a film that I wanted to see

There aren't many people in my family who like the cinema, only ever had nan to go with. :laugh:

Yeah like I'm kind of fine going on my own.

[Babayaro.]

I was going to see Alien: Covenant on my own but decided against it. :(

[storybrooke]

I've been to the cinema once on my own because nobody wanted to see the film. It was fine and nobody even gave me a funny look, though I felt a bit awkward at first.

I would definitely go again on my own.

[Vicky.]

I have never been on my own but I would like to.

[Niamh.]

There aren't many people in my family who like the cinema, only ever had nan to go with. [emoji23]

Yeah like I'm kind of fine going on my own.
Aww Wills nan :love:

I mean its not the most social thing to do anyway so I dont see why it would be odd or whatever

[Will.]

I would have come with you!

Ah okay!

[LukeB]

I would have come with you!

not you spending over 100 quid just to go cinema with someone. flights are expensive

[JerseyWins]

Never gone alone but I don't see an issue with it I just prefer to go with people as it's not as much fun for me otherwise. I'm not one that likes to go out anywhere in general unless it's with friends.

[Vanessa]

Yes, I love it.

[Will.]

Aww Wills nan :love:

I mean its not the most social thing to do anyway so I dont see why it would be odd or whatever

:love:

Yeah it certainly isn't the most social thing! I dragged her along to The Amazing Spider Man 2 and she fumed afterwards! :joker:

[LukeB]

Will do you socialise when you're watching a film in the cinema like talk during the film?

[Jian Yang]

Yes. I'll be going to watch All Eyez on Me during the week alone.

[Will.]

Yeah!

Lmao :joker:

When I go with friends then yeah :laugh:

One time I went with my friend and we thought this couple were having sex on the back row and we bursted out laughing and everyone started staring at us, it was a scream!

It was quite a small screen so we could talk, I think it was the fast and furious movie!

[Will.]

Yes. I'll be going to watch All Eyez on Me during the week alone.

Iconic

[LukeB]

Will if you're nervous, go to the cinema way before the film starts and just before the ads get your friend to phone you and make out they can't come.

[Will.]

Lmao maybe! I doubt there will be many people at the cinema so it should be fine!

[Daniel-X]

I don't like the cinemas anyway if that's anything (I'm such an easily distracted person) so just talk all the way through.

(Me and the girls have actually been kicked out a few times for distracting other people during the film)

[Will.]

Yeah there's been times where I've not been keen on the cinema, once I was sick in the film!

Omg screaming qndkxknemdekkdw

Not you and the girls getting kicked out!

[Jian Yang]

Iconic

Indeed :thumbs:

Tupac, posthumously was my idol growing up. I get shivers down my spine watching the trailers :blush:

[LukeB]

Sit at the back with a hoodie :cool:

[LukeB]

When i went on my own (i went because no one would watch it with me and i really wanted to watch it) i went before the ads and sat at the back and didn't leave until everyone else did lol

[Niamh.]

When i went on my own (i went because no one would watch it with me and i really wanted to watch it) i went before the ads and sat at the back and didn't leave until everyone else did lol
Why would you even care? I doubt anyone would even notice or care anyway

[Will.]

Not A!

Mess if anyone goes to the effort of doing this

[Jian Yang]

Go late at night maybe? Or go to a cinema out of town?

[LukeB]

Mess if anyone goes to the effort of doing this

:laugh:

[LukeB]

[emoji23]

well i have not seen the people i dislike (my bullies) for like 7 years but theres still a chance we could be in the same cinema and i don't want to give them the satisfaction them seeing my on my own thinking i have no friends and i don't know what they will be like and i'm a sensitive guy so i try and avoid those situations as i can. i'm not scared i just choose to avoid it.

[Jason.]

Yes.

I used to think it was weird when I was younger but if I really want to see a film that none of my friends want to, then I'm not going to miss it just in fear of being alone. Plus you hardly talk in the cinema anyway so it doesn't really matter, like yeah it's nice to go with someone and have someone to talk about the film with afterwards but other than that, it's not really a big deal.

And you don't have to worry about being judged by other people as they really won't care if you're alone or not, their attention will be on the screen the entire time and the lights are off in theater so it's not like you'll be seen by everyone.

[Amy Jade]

Once when I first learned to drive and I was off work and college and went to the shops to buy something and the cinema was dead do I just went in on my own, it was fine I like someone to talk to though so I wouldn't make a habit of it.

Oh actually I have before that too when my friends wanted to see a film and I didn't so I saw something on my own

[James]

Will if you're nervous, go to the cinema way before the film starts and just before the ads get your friend to phone you and make out they can't come.

You're more likely to annoy people into thinking that your phone is going to go off during the film.

[Locke.]

I'm a big film fan and none of my friends are so I've been alone a couple of times, once to see Interstellar and a week or so ago to see Wonder Woman. It's totally fine, there's nothing worse than going to see a film and somebody trying to talk to you throughout it anyway.

Think it would be a bit awkward going to like the first night showing of a film by yourself though, only ever been by myself during the afternoon. At Interstellar there were quite a few guys there by themselves actually.

[Tom4784]

I did it once before to watch a film none of my other friends are interested in but I prefer to go with somebody, It's nice to have someone to talk about the film to afterwards.

I didn't mind going alone though, I probably would have been more self conscious about it when I was younger but now I don't care tbh. I think if you plan on going alone it's best to do so during the day on a weekday, it's what I did and I basically had the cinema to myself <3.

It's been almost a decade, they won't care!

How do you know they even still live in the same area as you or if they're all still friends after all these years?

[Nicky91]

last time i went to the cinema was like 15 years ago i guess with my school :D, to a movie Mr Bean's holiday :amazed:

[Braden]

If you're worried what people think then just pretend you're a media student who needs to review a film :p

Honestly, you've got more gall going on your own and it's satisfying, especially if it's a film you know not many people would want to watch with you.

[LukeB]

Because one of my friends sees them around and they are more awful now than they were apparently :oh:

[LukeB]

You're more likely to annoy people into thinking that your phone is going to go off during the film.

Not really, everyone gets there phones out to silent/turn off when odeon thing comes on the screen about turning off phones.

[Ross.]

I haven't done it myself but if there was something I really wanted to see and no one else did then I wouldn't be against it

[Jason.]

Because one of my friends sees them around and they are more awful now than they were apparently :oh:

me

[LukeB]

A true story

[Jason.]

Wouldn't that phone thing just put more attention on yourself which is the last thing you want when you're trying to cover the fact you're alone in a cinema? :laugh:

[LukeB]

When i go everyones on their phones before the ads so no but it depends actually

[LukeB]

Will get kodi and watch it on there. Your sofa is more comfy than the cinema chairs which are vile

[Ross.]

Shut your mouth

[Ross.]

The cinema experience >

[LukeB]

Shut your mouth

It's the truth :oh:

[TaylorCallum]

Yeah I did it with Star Wars: The Force Awakens, it was fine. Everyone is there to see the movie anyway I don't think most people care if you are with someone or not.

If your tennis lessons are right next to the cinema then you may as well, it's convenient and if you really want to see it then you should go and enjoy it. I'll probably be going to see Spider-Man: Homecoming myself as well actually. I've been waiting on it for a year now and I think Tom Holland is the perfect Peter Parker, it's been getting great reviews so far. I think it should be good.

[LukeB]

The cinema experience >

I do go back on what i said because of the sound and the screen but i wish the chairs are comfy. I won't be surprised if no one wants to go with me because of the amount of times i move which distracts them.
