going to the movies by yourself…
Discuss.
- totally awesome and confidently badass?
- or, sad and pathetic.
I love going to the movies by myself. In fact, I did just last Friday - who needs a date when Javier Bardem is on-screen? No, seriously… I don’t think it makes me confidently badass, but I do think it’s a statement of independence.
One of the best things about going to the movies alone, is the solo, quiet walk home with your thoughts- drifting, dreaming and reflecting about what you just saw/heard/experienced.
It sure beats forcing your friends to go with you, and then they don’t like the movie and whines every time you get to pick a movie. Hahaha. That’s what happened with Children of Men…… So the last movie I went to see alone was Cloverfield. Not everyone enjoyed it, but it was an interesting experience. You’re alone, but not really. You do miss out on the standing-outside-the-door-discussion.
