Not really related but one time I went to a movie showing and no one else was there. Two individuals came in at separate times and sat on both sides of me right next to me and I was so uncomfortable at this situation I left. In hindsight it was a horror movie and maybe they were too nervous to see it alone but it’s often on my mind.
I had a friend in college who took a course where they were supposed to break nonverbal norms. They decided to break the norm that you’d don’t sit right next to people in a movie theater. They & their partner went to a nearly-empty theater for a film and sat on each side of the only people there. I now have headcanon that that was you.
Saw Lost Highway with two friends - only one couple was in the theater with us. Halfway through, we all started discussing what the fuck was going on in the movie we were so confused.
You’re giving me fond memories of midnight movies when I was in college at the student theater. Ten or fifteen in the theater playing Mystery Science Theater 3000 with every movie.
I remember when we watched The Shining, people gave a standing ovation any time the screen showed the black and white text showing the day of the week.
When they showed Stand By Me, we yelled, “BEAM ME UP! BEAM ME UP!” when they were running from the train.
When they showed Stargate, two guys stood up and just started having a loud conversation in the aisle. And no one told them to shut up.
