Some people say it's sad to go on your own but I don't think it is? I recently got a unlimited card so I can go to the cinema as many times as I want. I only have 4 close friends but they're always busy and they're rarely able to go to cinema with me apart from once/twice on some weekends. I haven't really got any other friends to ask to go with me unfortunately but there are quite a lot of movies I want to see so I'm just going to go on my own anyway.
Also wondered if anyone else here goes to the cinema on their own as well. :)
I've gone to the cinema with people and alone, I don't think it's sad. Going with someone doesn't really make sense, you sit in a dark room, watching a film and don't speak to anyone because it would be rude to impact other people's viewing and listening experience. It is in itself a very solitary experience.
I agree. The trouble is - particularly with the advent of smart-phone technology - others very often intrude. Lights going on in random places, showing that someone is checking their updates. And the cud-chewing of popcorn - it drives me mad. Just come to watch the film! Eat before you come out, or wait 'til you get home!
