Have you ever gone to the kinoplex alone?
>>
no, i'm not an incel
>>
Yes, im an alcoholic
>>
I retired early and I wont sit around all day and wait for other people to have time. So yes, I often do things I enjoy by myself
>>
my power went out once so I bought a ticket to something and then decided to walk into a kevin hart comedy instead. it was a mistake.
>>
>>219621858
I haven't gone with someone to a movie theater in a decade. Only alone
>>
>>219621858
Yes. I don't understand why this is the strange behavior and not the default. Do you need your friend to cheer loudly next to you or something during the climax?
>>
>>219621858
taking the picture is one thing, accidentally leaving the flash on is another.

But why upload it to reddit?
What could he have gained by doing that?

I have been to a cinema maybe twice in my life. Nobody to go with and I feel better watching movies at home.

I would go alone but am afraid of this picture. One of you fuckers would do this to me.

Yeah, but I haven't seen a movie in the theater since last summer.

You can tell this deformed retarded looking goblin is just terrible to even be near because he insists on checking his TikTok and recording a video during a movie. I would beat him to death with that Luigi action figure

It's only funny because he's noticably uncomfortable. If he had his legs up, a big bucket of chicken and smiled for the camera, it would be kino

I go (alone) to the late morning/early noon showings during the week. It's quiet and cheap.

What would you rather have: an empty complex with zero disturbances, or a busy screening full of loud niggers and teen girls using their phones?

>>219621858
When I went to see Alien vs Predator at the theater, I remember stepping on a guy's foot that I had to get past. Looked just like him. He wasn't moving an inch to allow me past. He went "OWW OWWW!!" Stupid retard. I hate that man-child to this day.

You owe him an apology

>>219621858
I saw Scream 7 alone. The movie wasn’t good. I ran out of the theater when it ended.

I watched the 2nd Avengers movie alone at a theatre because it was inbetween my two shifts (one was set up the other was packdown) and I didn't want to go home and then come back and only get like 40 minutes of rest so I just walked across the road

Bought a bunch of takeaway beforehand and just took my boots off and put my feet up and pigged out

The theatre janny tried to get my attention from the side to tell me to put my feet down or to stop eating but I just ignored him and he fucked off guess he was too much of a pussy to tell me to stop

I'm not a dick btw I get it but I literally the only dude in a giant ass theatre who cares if my fucking shoes are off and I'm eating garbage?

I fucking hate getting a prime seat and some fucking faggot normie buys a seat next to me. Or God forbid its a fucking couple. I pull my vape out and blow it in their faces. I did that for all of Dune I was high as a kite and the cuck didn't say a word with his wife right next to him

>>219621858
I go alone about half the time at least. My schedule is more flexible because I’m wealthy and sometimes it’s just nice to disappear for 90 minutes+. Sometimes I just prefer to get up and go and I have people squawking in my ear way too damn much so it’s nice to just be alone somewhere other than my house. It’s better than going to a bar alone.

I once got a sloppy blowjob from my then gf in an empty theatre

then they stood up and instead of walking out like the defeated faggot normies they were, they started clapping. also i’m trans if it matters.
>>
>>219621858
I went to see Avatar 3 alone in iMax 70mm at a 10:30pm showing (so it really started at 11pm after all the ads) most of the people in the theatre were single attendees so I didn’t feel weird. But that’s the only time I went.

Do you have any idea how hard it is to get someone to go with a 30 year old single male to a movie theater in 2026?
>>
>>219621858
You better hope I don't.
>>
>>219621858
I almost always go alone
>>
No, I don’t really want to do anything outside alone. And people have this idea that the reason I don’t want to do is because people will be staring at me, so they tell me “anon just do it no one is paying attention to you they aren’t going to laugh at you”. It’s not about people seeing me alone. It’s about being fully cognizant how I’m one of the few people in some environment alone while everyone else is with their friends, family, kids, spouse, etc. while I’m the pathetic loser creep who has to be out there alone because I have no one in my life. It just reminds me of how much of a socially isolated rejected pathetic loser I am.
>>
>>219621858
If it's a movie im excited for ill go alone. Otherwise ill see a horror movie with my friends and his gf because they a horror whores and see literally every single horror movie that comes out despite them almost all being shit.

You think I'm joking but I really do not give a fuck when it comes to getting the max pleasure for my money. And normies are not part of the pleasure equation.

It seems normal now because human social norms got completely nuked and restructured in the last 15 years or so (and continues to be). It's a completely different world now to when the stereotype was in effect. Movies used to be something to do with friends or your girl on the weekend because people wanted social activities. Only friendless nerds used to be into movies enough to actually see one by themselves outside of a social context, hence the old stereotype about going to the movies alone. If you didn't have a friend to go with you, you'd just do something else that involved other people. Because people didn't have 24/7 "social" interaction in their pockets. People needed to see and talk to each other, and if they couldn't, they'd be talk on the phone for hours.
>>
>>219621858
I do this all the time and no one cares, there are always other people watching by themselves. It's comfy. I'm not in Burgerland though.
>>
You're locked up in a dark, loud hall where you're not allowed to talk and are expected to look away from the other people, what good are friends there?
>>
>>219628283
>I'm not in Burgerland though.
This is the key. There's something seriously wrong with materialist americans where they have to film and humillate people nonstop so everyone can get updoots, tiktok hits and facebook likes that amounts to nothing.
>>
>>219628362
It would be just one part of a night out. After the movie you'd go out and talk about the film and feel the vibes. Even if it was a shit movie you'd bond over making fun of it. Of course you can just do that online now so this behavior is obsolete. Posting online is much easier and cheaper than going out with friends so way fewer young people do that now.

I hate the modern world so much
This guy should have been a warrior or farmer or something with a big family pretty much anytime before the past 100 years but in the modern world, where this guy probably did everything “right” and obeyed mommy’s every command he’s turned into a soft man child unable to grow up not enjoy childish pursuits anymore

>>219628482
Ate you in the right thread?

I had an AMC Stubs account for awhile and went every Friday night right after I got out of work at 11:30PM. Many nights I would have the entire theater to myself. It is inside of a mall, but they had the rest of the place gated off. It made me feel like I was back in the 80's even though most of the movies I saw were complete shit.
>>
>>219628452
Right. When I'd go see movies with my friends back forever ago, we'd all just fuck off when it was over. Nobody usually had anything to say beyond "wow that was shit"

Probably gets used but the novelty wears off after the 3rd viewing

nah

last time I went to the kinoplex was 2009. 2009 also happens to be the last year I had any kind of contact with school friends, I've been riding solo since then.

I don't think its rare I just bet the novelty wears off fast. No home theater matches the feeling of going to a kinoplex

Simply not being alone and having someone to chat with. If thats not a necessity to you thats perfectly fine

yeah don’t really understand why it’s so bad. the people who usually make fun of people like in your photo are usually brain-rotted closeted people and fat bitches with awful tattoos. if a crowd of people or the cashier is giving you shit, be annoying and pay with one of the hundred dollar bills in your wallet and watch their cockiness dissipate
>>
>>219629630
It certainly can be when the kino is actually engaging and you want to fully immerse
>>
>>219629541
Why would you pick a spot where you're expected to be quiet as to not annoy and inconvience everybody around you, to chat with your friend?
>>
>>219630017
Because the majority of humans are overwhelmingly social creatures who literally cannot help but spout every thought that occurs in their brain

>Movies used to be something to do with friends or your girl on the weekend
That was something that started to happening in the late 70's when cinema theatres started to change their models to compete with the TV. Before the TV room became the cornerstone of people's live, movies was a solo activity that you could do in your time if you wanted some form of entertainment.
>>
>>219628237
>If you didn't have a friend to go with you, you'd just do something else that involved other people
If you're a teenager and need your hand held all the time and all your friends have the exact same loose schedule as you, sure.

But most grown men don't sit around all day and wait for their friends busy shedules to open up before they go out and do things they enjoy. Imagine sitting on the beach and watching some dude in a kayak out there. If "omg, he must be so lonely" even crosses your mind when you see that, you are just projecting your extreme insecurities onto him and you need to grow the fuck up.
>>
>>219621858
Maybe once? But I can't think of why I would have gone alone.
>>
>>219621858
Yeah, once. I saw The Dark Knight Rises.
I was in my military uniform as I was traveling between bases and had some time to catch a movie before my bus. So obviously no one cared.
>>
>>219621858
Yes the last time I went to a movie I was able to select my seats. I picked a seat in back on the left, the last seat against the wall. I was the only one in the theater and just as the lights fade a couple comes in and sits right next to me. Fucking normies
