>random stereotypical nerd can't even go to the fricking theater without some moron gawking at him and snapping a picture for the whole world to see
Jesus just kill zoomers and Gen A babies, this is hell.
Children bully each other because it’s their only means of securing power. Zoomers raised on the internet never hit developmental milestones. And are now stuck in that mindset. Except the scope is now amplified by millions. Add in two years of lost socialization, and we’re stuck with another generation of children in adult bodies.

The problem here is his timid body language and his deer-in-headlights glare of fear. All while taking up as little space as possible instead of taking up as much space as possible.

The dude's face gets me every time. It's half nervous half bewilderment that there's some stranger taking his photo while they're the only 2 people in the room. Must've been surreal.
Are you legitimately moronic? He wasn't taking that shot to shame the basedboy for being alone but rather he was surprised that another individual was at the theater during lockdown.That photo was taken during the covid era. Again you're a moron.
I legitimately don't get what's wrong with this picture >HE LOOKS BEWILDERED
probably because some moron is randomly taken photos of him >HE LOOKS LIKE A BASEDBOY
he's just wearing glasses, has a beard, and grew his hair out a little, that's not strange >HE'S NOT TAKING UP ENOUGH SPACE
he's just sitting there, what do you want him to do?
it's definitely his posture and the entire way he sits, the way he takes up as little space as possible, the way he even avoids the arm rests and just has his hands fumbled together like a timid kid, his legs as well pointing inward instead of outward everything taking as little space as possible God forbid he 'manspreads', him being slouched literally everything screams VIRGIN FOUND about it
But the flash gives it a delay, it's entirely possible it went on, he got surprised and reactively closed up, and the photo snapped a few milliseconds later
I went to lots of movies alone, by choice. I also went to plenty with friends. Some movies you want to watch alone, and some are more fun with friends, it's not that complicated. They people who make a big deal about going to movies alone are probably just insecure.
The real question here is why do people care? I go alone all the time i don't give a single frick if someone goes alone or not. Normies are weird. It has to be a jealousy, they wish they had the balls to do something by themselves and be labeled weird
It's not jealousy it's anger and fear, they get so passive aggresive when they don't see themselves in others
You don't understand why it's offputting to see people violating social norms in public? Especially today when that weird loner could very easily have a gun in his backpack and fly into a rage?
Why is it a social norm to see a movie with someone? It's not like you can talk during it. You can talk about it after the fact just as well for having seen it on your own.
Insecurity. The only people who get hung up on others doing things alone are the most insecure people you can imagine. Obviously some things are a little bit weird like sitting alone at a 4-seat table in a packed restaurant on valentines day, but ordinary things like going to the movies, doing any hobbies, eating at restaurants, cafes or whatever alone is perfectly fine and normal, except to the people who are too insecure to do anything by themselves
Usually solo people eat at the bar and it's not weird at all. Sitting at a table alone isn't weird, per se (you gotta eat), but maybe just a little bit odd.
I went alone the last two times that I went to the theater, without any idea in my head that it could be weird or lame or whatever. I also like to go to McDonald's by myself from time to time. One day I was talking to a woman, and I casually mentioned that, and she was shocked, and asked me how did I have the balls to do that and how didn't I crumbled under other-people-are-looking-at-me-and-judging-me pressure.
Another time I was going to a bar with another woman, and when I arrived, she was waiting for me outside of the bar. When I asked her why hadn't she sat at a table and asked for a beer for herself already, she told me that she didn't want for people to think that she was a lonely weirdo drinking in a bar alone (mind you, everybody was going to see that she had company like 5-10 minutes after she sat).
Being a normie must be very hard.
The theater I can at least understand the mental frame - it's a social occasion for many - but who the frick finds it weird to go to McDonalds alone? It's a fricking fast food joint, what if I'm hungry on the way back from work?
It's weirder to be over 25 and going to the movies with a bunch of "bros" lol. Why would a man need to be with other men to watch a fricking movie in the dark? You're not talking during it. It's not like being at someone's house party. Why do you need a communal experience? To confirm it is indeed good, bad, or funny? Most movies are cringe in general.
Also, you have a phone to use before showtime. Gay thread.
>REEEEEE YOU CANNOT GO TO CINEMA UNLESS THERE IS 500 HUNDRED LOUDLY CHEWING Black folk
Imagine just genociding all the zoomers wherever you find them, even tree and a rock would speak up 'Here, there is a zoomer hiding behind me, come and kill him'.
I think youtube has normalized doing a lot of things solo.
Only 10 years ago most people I knew thought solo traveling was super weird and now it seems everybody is into it. Of course they like traveling with family and friends every once in a while too
Solo travel doesn't mean you stay alone the whole time. You go there alone and then you befriend locals and/or other travelers. I feel bad for people like you who never grow up and are too insecure to do things unless you're having your hand held
If you travel then just sign up for pub crawls. There's people from all walks of life with all types of personalities and you just keep talking to people until you find someone that you click with. If you're a sperg yourself, then go talk to the quiet guy standing in the corner.
Or if you're in your 20s, you can alternatively stay at a hostel. Chill in the common area and just wait for someone to inevitably start asking you questions about you and your trip. Simple as
Pub crawl/hostel people are always the worst kind of empty headed hippy morons possible, would literally rather go talk to the local garbage man instead

Pretty much every pub crawl in every major city I've been to has had a decent mix of people. Lots of airheaded normies. Lots of smelly hippies. Lots of 18-20 year olds on their first backpacking trip. Lots of socially awkward dorks. Lots of well-adjusted normies
I imagine it might be like you describe in cheap shithole countries that attracts the riffraff, but I dont go to those places

I book a pub crawl on day 2 of every trip and there's only been like 2-3 times where I have not been able to find at least 1 person that was worth keeping in touch with. Yes, most of the people there are obnoxious to someone who browses Cinemaphile, but when you talk to 50+ people throughout the night it's hard not to find at least 1 person of worth that you click with. It's the #1 way for solo travelers who aren't social butterflies to meet other travelers so it's a necessary evil even if it means having to dig through the garbage

That's why pub crawls are better for spergs. Alcohol loosens everyone up and if you spill your spaghetti you can just excuse yourself and go talk to somebody else. If you spill your spaghetti with everyone who's there then just go home and try again another night
Traveling alone is just sad. It's definitely an experience you are supposed to share with someone close to you. Not the same as watching a movie alone. Of course if it's a business trip that's different
It really isnt. I travel with my girlfriend, group of friends and alone, and while all of them comes with upsides and downsides, I really do prefer to travel alone. Doing things you want at your own pace is do much easier and comfier, and if it ever gets lonely, finding other travelers to have fun with isn’t exactly hard

The thought of solo travel fills me with unimaginable dread and terror. And a pub crawl in a random country when you're alone? Even worse.
I don't know how people can do this. Saying "dude just solo travel lol" to a person who is socially avoidant or awkward in their normal setting is a complete and utter meme. Do you actually think that some socially awkward shy quiet maybe even friendless maybe virgin is gonna go to a completely new country with the added massive stresses of a language barrier and not knowing anyone there to fall back on and suddenly become some social chad?
I went to Japan alone last year and had a blast.
I'm decent in Jappy though and met up with a couple Japs I met through HelloTalk albeitthoughever.
Most days was alone though, loved it
Most normie advice is designed for normies and normie-adjacents. If you have aspergers, it wont help you because it isn't built for you in the first place.
I was walking around naked and unpacking my bags in a fully lit hotel room at night because I had just arrived and was jetlagged, and didn't see that there was a rooftop bar with a direct view into my room until more than an hour had passed so I'm definitely on tiktok. I genuinely don't give a frick though. It's just a fun story to tell
There is a problem that stems from the late millenial in which actions supposedly don't have consequences, and even if they do supposedly no one cares if your intentions were supposedly good. In reality, every shitty thing late millenials did in the name of irony or insecurity or anger and wrote off as innocent or harmless is being done by zoomers as an earnest way of life. I'm glad I was born in the earlier 80s and my hands are clean of this bullshit.
>actions supposedly don't have consequences
Wtf dude I was born in the 90s and had to learn the hard way about actions and consequences. How come these people always get off scott free?
what causes this behaviour anyway? I was born in the late 80s and while as teens we obviously didnt relate to adults we never made fun of anyone for being "old". if anything you were kinda looking up to cool parents or dads with interesting jobs
it's an obsession with "catching" someone not wearing the perfect clothes or micro glancing at some girl's ass, this is going to be the downfall of zoomer culture somehow just like SJWs fricked over millennials.
Zoomers don't see others on social media as humans with emotions. Like that Harry Potter b***h who aged terribly. She posted a wholesome picture and normies flooded the comments talking about how terrible she looked. We do it here too because it's true, but we don't actively seek out the person and tell them to their face that they're ugly, because that is just cruel
what causes this behaviour anyway? I was born in the late 80s and while as teens we obviously didnt relate to adults we never made fun of anyone for being "old". if anything you were kinda looking up to cool parents or dads with interesting jobs
Maybe I'm just being autistic, but I can read infinite amounts of horrible insults on here or have someone call me a gigahomosexual dicksucker 9000 times in a game and not get even slightly perturbed, but something about seeing someone with their face out online talking shit lights an unspeakable fire up my ass. It feels much more personal and confrontational when I can actually see the person talking shit and its some fat doughy looking piece of shit that looks like they would cry, shit themselves and run away at the first sign of violence.
The adults in our time didn't consume the exact same culture we did.
If dudes in their 50s were waiting in line to buy Tekken we sure as shit would have made jokes about it. They wouldn't have gone past that evening since there was no internet and no social media.
you're not really allowed to do anything in public alone without looking like a mutant because humans are social creatures and being alone is not natural t. loner
>not buying the ticket online and then pulling the stealth ninja entrance and exit move where you only enter the cinema 10-15 minutes after the official time when the lights are already down during ads/trailers and you storm out of the theater first just before the credits start to roll and the lights go up
it's like you guys don't even know how to be proper friendless kissless virgins
There’s an old man who hangs out at the library all day and talks to everyone who walks by. He lost a leg to diabetes and just sits on a sofa. I saw him chatting up a young girl who was obviously uncomfortable but nodding along. Turning into that by 80 is my worst nightmare.
this is the worst type of normie. I used to go to an all-night diner when I lived in the city. there was this middle aged moron who was always in there talking to anyone nearby and playing dadrock from his phone.
Concerts are bad too. One thing people become friends over is shared taste in music. If you can’t find someone to go to any live show with, why even bother? You’ll be surrounded by young couples and feel insecure the whole time.
nope. probably half the people at shows are by themselves in my experience. i'm not talking about le epic top 40 huge concerts, I mean indie shows at small to mid sized venues.
that said, yes I do feel that insecurity thing as well (more of a jealous hatred than insecure though), and don't go to shows any more, but I used to.
>Do you ever go to the movie theater alone?
Yes, and it's not embarrassing. You know what is? Thinking you have to go to the fiction pictures with company, exactly like a woman needing another woman to go to the bathroom.
>nooo nooo you have to go to the movies with someone
Why are normalgays like this? It’s not a theme park which is objectively more fun with people it’s a movie theater.
My ex would only agree to go see diarrhea movies like Hustlers or Dirty Grandpa and complain when I suggested actually good movies.
Having a girlfriend is like cutting your dick off in exchange for brief moments of pleasure.
All the time, very frequently on my college years. Who the frick cares what some moronic terminally online neo-normie thinks? you would have to be a special kind of pussy brained homosexual to even give a second of energy to these line of thinking.
I go like once a week but it is an arthouse cinema and half the people there are alone. Sometimes there are even cute girls on their own and I dream of talking to them but alas a fantasy it remains
Look, if you have trouble making friends etc. you just need to befriend one tolerable (to you) normie human who will serve as your social interface for years to come. It's a great investment. I had one such friend during high school and it was great to be honest, helped me a lot with confidence and it led to meeting girls (I ended up being gay but whatever), partying, drinking, sex, etc. so I had some more than acceptable formative years which I cherish greatly.
University was a different world, I made the mistake of getting into an "elite" STEM only Uni, so 99% the students were almost purely omega-beta male types, and no girls, so I got a core group of nerdy friends, good times, but at the same time a dark cloud of depression and anxiety permeated the whole experience, no social interface for me.
Luckily, I now have a great boyfriend that is extremely extroverted and has way too many friends, he accepts my reclusiveness and zero friends need, though initially this was somewhat strange to him, and I play along when he brings his friends over, and take the opportunity to connect with normie world, latest trends, songs, and while they get drunk I just eat 1g of shrooms and drink water lol. Their friends "like" me, more accurately they tolerate me, I can tell they think I'm a weird fricker but I don't think greatly of them either. I'm just aware the humans are hardwired to be social creatures and depressions and other maladies onset if you don't see others for a while, so I get my socials filled and then I'm good for 2-4 weeks. Great arrangement.
of course I do im not a barbarian, even if I think the movie is sub-par the experience is worth it >get some gin in a flask >hide a couple sandwiches in pockets >buy a pizza and beer in the lobby >drunkenly laugh loudly at the dumbest god damn movie ever written by social justice homosexuals with the whole seat next to me taken up by my burgers and sandwiches >even the Black folk giving telling me to shh
i used to go all the time (back when id actually go to movies) but im such an anti-socal autist id always wait like a month after its been out knowing nobody would be seeing it by then and go during the latest showing they'd have during a weekday, and like 9 out of 10 times id get the whole theater to myself so i could do my usual sperging out and jumping to different seats all through the movie because my autism makes it impossible to stay in the same spot for too long and can do all this without any normies around to judge me
i used to go to those more arthouse movies usually showing indie movies and those theaters typically had a lot of nerdy autist types seeing the movie alone rather than big crowds of friends doing the yelling at the screen thing only black people and annoying group of friend types do. usually made for a better movie going experience going to the theater for nerds seeing the movie for the experience of enjoying the movie and not because its le social event to be obnoxious in public
Only to Evangelion 3.0 + 1.0 (I had already watched it on Prime Video). None of my friends wanted to go, my brother and sister haven't watched Evangelion. The only other people in the theatre were a couple of South Americans (I live in Spain), I think they were around three years younger than me.
I have been able to convince another person to any other movie I've wanted to see.
Not usually. I went alone last night for Godzilla. I thought about taking my nephew with me but he's seven and has ADD so watching a movie for 2 horus in another language would probably make him want to die.
All the time
Even when I had friends I couldn't go watch things I like, I enjoy them the most when I'm alone
I'd go watch whatever slop I don't care about with them but I'd always watch the things I like the most on my own by night with kino food and at the very back of the room
Yes and I purposefully hire stalkers to follow me.
You, the one taking photos of me?
Well they're the ones identifying you along with your family and friends.
Once you take that photo of me the stalkers send me all your info and I hire cleaners afterwards.
What do the cleaners do? Well let's just say they clean up after me...
Not everyone is a neet like you.
Also no one cares about the "chad" phenotype or the "virgin" posture, your brain is literally fried from too much memes and shitty self-improvement videos.
I'm not a neet. Have you seriously have no control over your worklife that you can't rearrange your schedule? lmao. I enjoy a theater during the daytime, perfect for watching kino in peace and sitting wherever you want.
>Also no one cares about the "chad" phenotype or the "virgin" posture >no one cares about memes
Bro, it's not 2009 anymore, the internet is real life now. Do you think women, the supreme social media addicts and social conformists, aren't having their minds shaped by memes?
>memes matter post-2009
If you don't have any responsibilities then yes it does matter. If not there are things that are far more important and influential than what are shared on social medias. Adults don't have the time to keep track on whats trending and whats degrading, they've mouths to feed and bills to pay and just want to enjoy life as it is.
Yeah I even go to screeners by myself. People are surprised because I'm hot, also. But why would I go with anyone? I'm not trying to talk to them the whole time. Trying to watch the kino.
Probably three times a month sometimes. It’s one of my favorite little things to do for myself. Not gay new releases though. I go to my local theater that shows endless kino.
I watched Saw 3 (years after its release) with that art hoe girl who was roommates with a friend of mine.
Her pick. We were completely alone in the cinema. She suggested we sit in the back row.
Absolutely disgusted by the vilence and was just anxious to get out of there.
Couple of weeks later I get a message from her that she was raped in the park by some drug addicts and police swabbed her vegana. First I heard of her
We went to the cinema a few times after that but always in company.
I wonder if I've been pictured for this behaviour. I do literally everything alone, no fricks given. I go out to restaurants for lunch/dinner alone, movies alone, cafes alone, etc. I'm in my 30s and most of my friends got wives and families now. If I even try to set up a date with a girl they usually just make up an excuse, cancel last minute, or ghost me. Same with the guys actually. Maybe I'm just a weirdo nobody likes. Oh well, being alone is preferable.
People doing things alone BY CHOICE feel no problems doing it.
People doing things alone OUT OF NECESSITY feel horribly insecure doing it.
I can't do any social activities alone because I'm a friendless virgin and it's literally all that I think about if I'm somewhere social alone. From something as intensive as solo traveling, to something as minor as going to a restaurant or theater alone. I cannot do it.
>1.8m likes for a post making fun of a completely normal looking guy for seeing a movie by himself >more than double the population of Rome at it's peak see this and think the woman isn't being a massive c**t and that there is something wrong with seeing a movie by yourself
How utterly autistic are you people? This thread is genuinely hurting my brain.
I’m quite possibly the most socially outgoing person you’ll ever meet and I’m definitely not representative of the average person on this website.
I wouldn’t hesitate going to a cinema alone. There’s nothing embarrassing, strange or unusual about it, and even if it was, who gives a frick? Nobody cares about you. You’re there to enjoy yourself. If you give that much credence to what other people think of you, you will never do anything worth doing in life.
t. travel internationally at least once every two weeks solo, eat at restaurants solo all the time by myself, get drunk at bars and clubs by myself, It’s fricking normal.

It's not interesting, it's just a fact. Especially the solo travel thing. Do you ever hear about losers traveling solo to another country and suddenly becoming some social butterfly where they talk with everyone, hit the clubs, pick up random women, make lots of friends? No, you hear that fromthe normies who solo travel.
When you do expected social activities alone by choice, you feel very confident and secure doing them because "I could be doing these with my friends/family/gf/bf if I wanted to, but I want to do it alone". When you have to eat in a restaurant alone because you have no one else to eat with, go to a theater alone because you have no friends, go on a huge vacation alone with no one to share the memories with because you have no friends/family to travel with, you are not going to be happy.
What the actual frick is this mental illness I am reading? Why is everyone ITT acting like not being the center of the fricking universe means you are human scum? Think lesser of yourselves your narcissistic homosexuals, nobody cares and they shouldn't.
>sociopathic normalgays looking for any and every opportunity to bully and mistreat anyone that is seen as "weaker" or less accepted by the herd than they are
Nothing has changed. It was like this 30 years ago, now you just see it online because these fricking walking pustules all have smartphones.
i think the only movie i've ever gone to see by myself was Black Panther, cause i had just gone through a breakup and the friends i had at the time were chuds i didn't wanna invite cause i didn't want or value their input on the film.
I think it kinda depends on what movie you go to. I ended up going to Oppenheimer and Saw X alone while on a business trip and it was not awkward. Seeing the Super Mario Bros. movie when it was super early thinking everyone would be in school and instead everyone used it as a babysitter? Awkward. I did see the new Hunger Game film with my GF at her request and holy hell there were groups of like 20 going there.
I'm not a fan of doing so but some people like the experience and wanna focus on the film. Some films are better on your own and plenty of people are busy nowadays. It's just easier to drop on by the theater on your own time than making it work with multiple schedules.
The amount of people that use this site now who are comfortable admitting that they have friends, have girlfriends and see contemporary movies is keeping me awake at night. I don't think I belong here anymore.
>forum where the discourse can be boiled down to "chad chad chad chad chad chad"
no thanks. i just want commiseration over tfw no gf and normies without obsessing over muh chad, muh hypergamy, and muh facial structure
One time I went to movies alone and some flaming homosexual Black sat next to me and kept trying to talk to me. He took off his shoes and stuck his feet on the railings. Fricking gross ill never go without backup again
I will go by myself sometimes if it's capeshit or some other kino that my gf isn't interested in. I go to the local luxury kinoplex and have food and wienertails delivered to me right to my seat. If anyone else is watching me, and I doubt they are, they can see I am having way more fun than even they are so I don't give a shit about being seen alone watching kino.
I lost a ton of weight, got ripped went to the movies and some cutie zoomer girl at ticket stand asked for my number after the movie, movie was kino too. No annoying friend asking questions or giving commentary every 30 seconds, no person who is visibly bored with movie, no shitty convo about movie after it's over, I can have a schizo convo with myself.
Most of my trips out to the theater in the past decade have been solo, and I've never once thought anything abnormal about it. Maybe if you're going by yourself to a kids' movie it can look a little weird but otherwise, no one even notices, let alone gives a shit, that you're there by yourself. Even if you go with friends you're just gonna sit in silence for the duration of the film, provided you're not a subhuman, so what difference does it make? Just enjoy your kino.

NOPE, no money to woke israeliterats, and all Hollywoke movies are fricking TRASH anyway, so what am I missing out on? I only come on Cinemaphile to b***h about trannies and SJWs.
Every normalgay I ever talk to is always gossiping about other people behind their backs so the only natural conclusion is that they're also gossiping about me behind my back when I'm not around.
when they're trying to gaslight us, every one of them fails to mention this. often times even the very same people that are giving us "advice" will do this. people talk so much shit all the time
Yeah but sometimes gossip is a one way street. Like one person is complaining about a third party, and the person listening just nods and agrees to move through the conversation. It doesn't mean they agree with any of it.

So why be selfish? You don't deserve shit. How about making sure your neighbor and loved ones are taken care of first. It will be reciprocated in kind.
When I went to see John Wick and The World's End, the theaters were completely empty. I got up and paced around the theater while watching the movie because I might as well have used the space I had to myself while I had it.

OK Hollywood, here's a movie idea for ya:
Incel is afraid to go to movies alone, believes all the shit in this thread and tries, AND fails, with hilarious results some of the things suggested (like spreading shit on seats around him, sneaking out early, etc.
Finally, he gets an idea: what if I FORCE people to watch movies with me?
So he gets a gun and also makes a realistic looking bomb and makes some smaller explosives.
He then prcedes to kidnap people to watch movies with him - detonating small bombs to show he's not fricking around, but having a big allah akbar bomb strapped around his body.
"Don't tell anyone, don't ask for help or I blow up the entire theater and it'll be YOUR fault"
Buys tickets to fandango with hostages.
Watches movies with hostages.
After the movie, with the victims crying silently out of fear of death, have him do a Film Critic review of what they just saw, but have him gag the hostages.
Dunno how to end this, maybe dark horror where he dumps the body and no one ever finds the corpses?
I prefer going to the theater alone and do it all the time. Well, not really since there is nothing ever worth seeing. Last movie I saw in theaters was in 2019. But when I do I prefer to be alone.

They do it to hide their receding hairline. It's the precursor to a comb-over.
Thanks. Glad I missed that gene. I’m probably 15 years older and look younger than him.
You can tell that he's norwooding pretty bad.

Jesus just kill zoomers and Gen A babies, this is hell.
Children bully each other because it’s their only means of securing power. Zoomers raised on the internet never hit developmental milestones. And are now stuck in that mindset. Except the scope is now amplified by millions. Add in two years of lost socialization, and we’re stuck with another generation of children in adult bodies.

https://imgur.com/a/Ev0ZM
Wait a minute, I recognize that gay blowjob!
This is pretty funny actually. They should have cameras in all theaters and put the pictures on a screen in the lobby like a theme park.
There already are cameras in theaters dumb-dumb
XD
They watch all the teens fool around too
I feel bad for the guy. He just wanted to watch some kino by himself, now he's being mocked all over the internet.
how is he mocked
I just mocked him, that's how. I'm the mocker.
The problem here is his timid body language and his deer-in-headlights glare of fear. All while taking up as little space as possible instead of taking up as much space as possible.
If he was actually comfortable there and enjoying his time the pic wouldn't look awkward at all
good point, actually.
moronic point. some stranger randomly took a flash picture of him so it obviously surprised him and freaked him out
>some nerd can't even sit in a chair without some dork analyzing whether he was a beta or not with armchair psychology

The guy who watched captain marvel
The dude's face gets me every time. It's half nervous half bewilderment that there's some stranger taking his photo while they're the only 2 people in the room. Must've been surreal.
Needs a little front comb over shoop
If it was just him and the guy taking the pic then that guy was alone at the theater too. Damn..have some self awareness, plebbitor.
Are you legitimately moronic? He wasn't taking that shot to shame the basedboy for being alone but rather he was surprised that another individual was at the theater during lockdown.That photo was taken during the covid era. Again you're a moron.
I legitimately don't get what's wrong with this picture
>HE LOOKS BEWILDERED
probably because some moron is randomly taken photos of him
>HE LOOKS LIKE A BASEDBOY
he's just wearing glasses, has a beard, and grew his hair out a little, that's not strange
>HE'S NOT TAKING UP ENOUGH SPACE
he's just sitting there, what do you want him to do?
it's definitely his posture and the entire way he sits, the way he takes up as little space as possible, the way he even avoids the arm rests and just has his hands fumbled together like a timid kid, his legs as well pointing inward instead of outward everything taking as little space as possible God forbid he 'manspreads', him being slouched literally everything screams VIRGIN FOUND about it
But the flash gives it a delay, it's entirely possible it went on, he got surprised and reactively closed up, and the photo snapped a few milliseconds later
Glasses are gross
If you don't sit splayed out confidently in the Kinoplex like a king on his throne I don't know what to tell you.
a lot of people unironically let Cinemaphile meme archetypes influence their actions and worldview
I would have my feet over the seats in front of me. Hell I even do that when there's people sitting in those seats.
if you did that to me i would say something
And I would ignore you.
i'd probably threaten you with bodily harm if you did that, and if you talked back i would grab you by the throat until you apologized
Id suck your wiener so good daddy
You'd be spitting your teeth out and crying for someone to call the police until I deliver the final kick to your temple.
Must have been a great blow job.
think you could take care of Warwick Davis after you're done with anon?
Why is it photo-worthy? I get why the photo is funny because of the accidental flash but I don't get why he took the photo in the first place
he looks like a skinny ronnie.
even doing the same stupid face.
I used to when I was younger. These days I don't feel like spending $20 to watch a sub-par movie written by some SJW.
post the fricking tiktok was the b***h making fun of the guy or what?
She said he probably posts on Cinemaphile
>go to the movie theater alone and get shamed online?
>stay home and watch everything for free?
why are movie theaters dying?
>shamed online
Don’t deadname X chud
most people have friends
Would definitely kill myself as a result and mention the uploader in the note. There's gotta be harassment laws for that, right?
Used to
There's no good reason to go to the theater anymore
This.
I went to lots of movies alone, by choice. I also went to plenty with friends. Some movies you want to watch alone, and some are more fun with friends, it's not that complicated. They people who make a big deal about going to movies alone are probably just insecure.
Silent Night
Shin Godzilla
Gremlins Rerelease
The real question here is why do people care? I go alone all the time i don't give a single frick if someone goes alone or not. Normies are weird. It has to be a jealousy, they wish they had the balls to do something by themselves and be labeled weird
It's not jealousy it's anger and fear, they get so passive aggresive when they don't see themselves in others
You don't understand why it's offputting to see people violating social norms in public? Especially today when that weird loner could very easily have a gun in his backpack and fly into a rage?
Who is he going to shoot in an empty theater you moronic wannabe contrarian Black person?
>violating social norms
Cal social police you obnoxious female brained cuck.
jesus christ, please be a troll
>Especially today when that weird loner could very easily have a gun in his backpack and fly into a rage?
I guarantee that you're the type of homie who pestered others about wearing a mask
This is the level of b8 that gets people nowadays. For fricks sake, they don’t even have to try anymore.
>this person might be a serial killer (based on his glasses of course)
>I better go and piss him off
I wish that person really was a serial killer
The only one violating social norms is the Black person taking a video
no, that's actually pretty standard now.
Good bait
8/8
>that "weirdo" could snap any second now!
>I know, let's bully him!
I hope you get shot
Why is it a social norm to see a movie with someone? It's not like you can talk during it. You can talk about it after the fact just as well for having seen it on your own.
Insecurity. The only people who get hung up on others doing things alone are the most insecure people you can imagine. Obviously some things are a little bit weird like sitting alone at a 4-seat table in a packed restaurant on valentines day, but ordinary things like going to the movies, doing any hobbies, eating at restaurants, cafes or whatever alone is perfectly fine and normal, except to the people who are too insecure to do anything by themselves
I worked in restaurants and people would come in to eat by themselves all the time. Don't see why some people consider it weird
Usually solo people eat at the bar and it's not weird at all. Sitting at a table alone isn't weird, per se (you gotta eat), but maybe just a little bit odd.
oversocialized normies
I went alone the last two times that I went to the theater, without any idea in my head that it could be weird or lame or whatever. I also like to go to McDonald's by myself from time to time. One day I was talking to a woman, and I casually mentioned that, and she was shocked, and asked me how did I have the balls to do that and how didn't I crumbled under other-people-are-looking-at-me-and-judging-me pressure.
Another time I was going to a bar with another woman, and when I arrived, she was waiting for me outside of the bar. When I asked her why hadn't she sat at a table and asked for a beer for herself already, she told me that she didn't want for people to think that she was a lonely weirdo drinking in a bar alone (mind you, everybody was going to see that she had company like 5-10 minutes after she sat).
Being a normie must be very hard.
The theater I can at least understand the mental frame - it's a social occasion for many - but who the frick finds it weird to go to McDonalds alone? It's a fricking fast food joint, what if I'm hungry on the way back from work?
It's weirder to be over 25 and going to the movies with a bunch of "bros" lol. Why would a man need to be with other men to watch a fricking movie in the dark? You're not talking during it. It's not like being at someone's house party. Why do you need a communal experience? To confirm it is indeed good, bad, or funny? Most movies are cringe in general.
Also, you have a phone to use before showtime. Gay thread.
Because they're children and/or morons. This level of anxiety over other's view of you is purely narcissism at work.
>narcissism at work.
I'd say it's insecurity far more often.
Yes, constantly. And I’m a 6ft, fat freak with long hair who often wears a Stetson fur hat. You’re not as important as you think you are.
Are you a black jazz musician?
some days you’re the based racist 4chud, some days you’re the black jazz musician. Such is life.
what movie? I'm going to judge it
I've wanted to go to theater for awhile but there hasn't been any kino to justify it.
>REEEEEE YOU CANNOT GO TO CINEMA UNLESS THERE IS 500 HUNDRED LOUDLY CHEWING Black folk
Imagine just genociding all the zoomers wherever you find them, even tree and a rock would speak up 'Here, there is a zoomer hiding behind me, come and kill him'.
Went to see Eraserhead recently since it was showing at a local cinema and almost everyone there came alone.
I used to go watch the Saw movies but I felt inhibited beause I couldn't laugh at the deaths.
Saw the newest one by myself and had a great time laughing at all the deaths and crazy traps. Just be yourself bro
How do you not laugh at the deaths? Literally only the first and last Saw movies were any good.
Twice. First time was for Man of Steel, last time was for Midway but I fell asleep during that one.
always
I think youtube has normalized doing a lot of things solo.
Only 10 years ago most people I knew thought solo traveling was super weird and now it seems everybody is into it. Of course they like traveling with family and friends every once in a while too
Kek loser
Solo travel doesn't mean you stay alone the whole time. You go there alone and then you befriend locals and/or other travelers. I feel bad for people like you who never grow up and are too insecure to do things unless you're having your hand held
>make friends with strangers
i seriously wish i knew how to do this, seems like a useful skill
If you travel then just sign up for pub crawls. There's people from all walks of life with all types of personalities and you just keep talking to people until you find someone that you click with. If you're a sperg yourself, then go talk to the quiet guy standing in the corner.
Or if you're in your 20s, you can alternatively stay at a hostel. Chill in the common area and just wait for someone to inevitably start asking you questions about you and your trip. Simple as
simple as what?
Pub crawl/hostel people are always the worst kind of empty headed hippy morons possible, would literally rather go talk to the local garbage man instead
Pretty much every pub crawl in every major city I've been to has had a decent mix of people. Lots of airheaded normies. Lots of smelly hippies. Lots of 18-20 year olds on their first backpacking trip. Lots of socially awkward dorks. Lots of well-adjusted normies
I imagine it might be like you describe in cheap shithole countries that attracts the riffraff, but I dont go to those places
It's literally JUST airheaded live laugh love tards and smelly vegan dudeweedlmao hippies. That's not a "decent mix of people", that's literally the worst kind of mix possible. You won't find a single worthwhile person on a damn tourist pub crawl
Last trip I met an ER doctor and investment banker, both of whom were slightly autistic and chill, who became my travel buddies for the remainder of the trip, so your experience definitely doesn't align with mine
Cmon now, we can agree that 99.9999% of the time you won't find a single doctor or investment banker at a standard tourist pub crawl.
I book a pub crawl on day 2 of every trip and there's only been like 2-3 times where I have not been able to find at least 1 person that was worth keeping in touch with. Yes, most of the people there are obnoxious to someone who browses Cinemaphile, but when you talk to 50+ people throughout the night it's hard not to find at least 1 person of worth that you click with. It's the #1 way for solo travelers who aren't social butterflies to meet other travelers so it's a necessary evil even if it means having to dig through the garbage
Im literally a doc who loves the obnoxious tourist bar crawls when im travelling
Anon those were israelites.
I stayed at a hostel once and tried to talk to people and I just spilled my spaghetti a bunch.
That's why pub crawls are better for spergs. Alcohol loosens everyone up and if you spill your spaghetti you can just excuse yourself and go talk to somebody else. If you spill your spaghetti with everyone who's there then just go home and try again another night
>in your 20s
does this mean 26 plus or early 20s?
20s, you're not old if you're in your late 20s. whenever i go out to bars/clubs everyone looks old as hell anyway, like mid 30s
Traveling alone is just sad. It's definitely an experience you are supposed to share with someone close to you. Not the same as watching a movie alone. Of course if it's a business trip that's different
People poison any experience. You associate it with them instead of absorbing all of it for what it is.
It really isnt. I travel with my girlfriend, group of friends and alone, and while all of them comes with upsides and downsides, I really do prefer to travel alone. Doing things you want at your own pace is do much easier and comfier, and if it ever gets lonely, finding other travelers to have fun with isn’t exactly hard
The thought of solo travel fills me with unimaginable dread and terror. And a pub crawl in a random country when you're alone? Even worse.
I don't know how people can do this. Saying "dude just solo travel lol" to a person who is socially avoidant or awkward in their normal setting is a complete and utter meme. Do you actually think that some socially awkward shy quiet maybe even friendless maybe virgin is gonna go to a completely new country with the added massive stresses of a language barrier and not knowing anyone there to fall back on and suddenly become some social chad?
I went to Japan alone last year and had a blast.
I'm decent in Jappy though and met up with a couple Japs I met through HelloTalk albeitthoughever.
Most days was alone though, loved it
Most normie advice is designed for normies and normie-adjacents. If you have aspergers, it wont help you because it isn't built for you in the first place.
then why the frick do you respond to spergs and sperg problems with this shit that your normalfreak Black person compadres already know?
>zoomer snaps a picture
>just trying to enjoy food or a movie >zoomer gets head ripped off
Violate the no singles policy and find out motherfricker
I don’t use TikTok so even if someone recorded and made fun of me I would be none the wiser.
I was walking around naked and unpacking my bags in a fully lit hotel room at night because I had just arrived and was jetlagged, and didn't see that there was a rooftop bar with a direct view into my room until more than an hour had passed so I'm definitely on tiktok. I genuinely don't give a frick though. It's just a fun story to tell
are you hung?
Yeah, but I cant afford a hitman.
In fact I even participated in a tik tok with this co-worker in a theater I worked in a year back.
She got fired shortly after because the weed started corrupting her.
Are these zoomer c**ts seriously shaming an old lady? I hope all of them die lonely. c**ts.
There is a problem that stems from the late millenial in which actions supposedly don't have consequences, and even if they do supposedly no one cares if your intentions were supposedly good. In reality, every shitty thing late millenials did in the name of irony or insecurity or anger and wrote off as innocent or harmless is being done by zoomers as an earnest way of life. I'm glad I was born in the earlier 80s and my hands are clean of this bullshit.
>actions supposedly don't have consequences
Wtf dude I was born in the 90s and had to learn the hard way about actions and consequences. How come these people always get off scott free?
it's gonna be so funny watching zoomers get old. with as much shit as they talk, they're gonna have a huge meltdown.
what causes this behaviour anyway? I was born in the late 80s and while as teens we obviously didnt relate to adults we never made fun of anyone for being "old". if anything you were kinda looking up to cool parents or dads with interesting jobs
zoomers are cruel and soulless. gen alpha will be completely unhinged monsters.
each progression of info technology and screen addiction makes the subsequent gens worse and worse
have no idea what you're talking about anon...
Why is the fat kid wearing his underwear on his head?
it's an obsession with "catching" someone not wearing the perfect clothes or micro glancing at some girl's ass, this is going to be the downfall of zoomer culture somehow just like SJWs fricked over millennials.
Zoomers don't see others on social media as humans with emotions. Like that Harry Potter b***h who aged terribly. She posted a wholesome picture and normies flooded the comments talking about how terrible she looked. We do it here too because it's true, but we don't actively seek out the person and tell them to their face that they're ugly, because that is just cruel
Maybe I'm just being autistic, but I can read infinite amounts of horrible insults on here or have someone call me a gigahomosexual dicksucker 9000 times in a game and not get even slightly perturbed, but something about seeing someone with their face out online talking shit lights an unspeakable fire up my ass. It feels much more personal and confrontational when I can actually see the person talking shit and its some fat doughy looking piece of shit that looks like they would cry, shit themselves and run away at the first sign of violence.
It's like gay truck stop sex. If your dick is through a wall, no one knows nothing. But staring the guy in the face is for homosexuals.
>we never made fun of anyone for being "old"
ok boomer.
The adults in our time didn't consume the exact same culture we did.
If dudes in their 50s were waiting in line to buy Tekken we sure as shit would have made jokes about it. They wouldn't have gone past that evening since there was no internet and no social media.
>t. 40 y/o millennial
Why are Zoomers such NPCs? Why do they need to be in constant herds and need constant praise from others 24/7?
How else can you get upvotes and likes?
Is this in American thing?
People go to movies, restaurants and vacations by themselves all the fricking time and there's nothing weird about it.
yes americans are insufferable
post the tik tok, I want to laugh at lonely old people too. It's so funny, right? Imagine that was your grandma and he had no one KEK
you're not really allowed to do anything in public alone without looking like a mutant because humans are social creatures and being alone is not natural t. loner
Almost every week. Already got my ticket for Chłopi for tomorrow.
>not buying the ticket online and then pulling the stealth ninja entrance and exit move where you only enter the cinema 10-15 minutes after the official time when the lights are already down during ads/trailers and you storm out of the theater first just before the credits start to roll and the lights go up
it's like you guys don't even know how to be proper friendless kissless virgins
I bring enough snacks for two
not anymore... don't even go to the library either, i feel like everyone knows and is bummed out some loner is taking up space there
There’s an old man who hangs out at the library all day and talks to everyone who walks by. He lost a leg to diabetes and just sits on a sofa. I saw him chatting up a young girl who was obviously uncomfortable but nodding along. Turning into that by 80 is my worst nightmare.
this is the worst type of normie. I used to go to an all-night diner when I lived in the city. there was this middle aged moron who was always in there talking to anyone nearby and playing dadrock from his phone.
I love when b***hes are uncomfortable so he's based in my book
I have no friends or family. So I always go alone. Preferably on a Monday morning. When nobody's there.
I did one time and someone threw a water bottle and hit my shoulder
>going to music shows alone is fine but not the theatre
arbitrary normie rules are moronic. don't give a frick.
Concerts are bad too. One thing people become friends over is shared taste in music. If you can’t find someone to go to any live show with, why even bother? You’ll be surrounded by young couples and feel insecure the whole time.
>You’ll be surrounded by young couples and feel insecure the whole time.
what a weird thing to say
I miss the old Cinemaphile
why are you here?
>this shameful, embarrassing homosexual thinks everyone shares his emotional problems and is weak like him
Lmfao@ your life
nope. probably half the people at shows are by themselves in my experience. i'm not talking about le epic top 40 huge concerts, I mean indie shows at small to mid sized venues.
that said, yes I do feel that insecurity thing as well (more of a jealous hatred than insecure though), and don't go to shows any more, but I used to.
>probably half the people at shows are by themselves
what the frick are you smoking lmao
You have some serious issues
how the frick do people "bond over music", what a boring thing to "bond" over
Theyre stupid fricking children
anti-creeper surveillance small business check-in system when?
>Do you ever go to the movie theater alone?
Yes, and it's not embarrassing. You know what is? Thinking you have to go to the fiction pictures with company, exactly like a woman needing another woman to go to the bathroom.
No why would I spend money to sit in an uncomfortable seat and listen to the whispered conversation of the guys in the row behind me
When I lived in a different area for a while and knew no one yeah. But I'm too embarrassed to do it in my home town.
>nooo nooo you have to go to the movies with someone
Why are normalgays like this? It’s not a theme park which is objectively more fun with people it’s a movie theater.
almost all my life, except movie festival with friends or the occasional girlfriend.
you can watch what you want whenever we want
Yes, I went to see Godzilla Minus One by myself just last night. It was excellent.
great movie, also saw it alone
My ex would only agree to go see diarrhea movies like Hustlers or Dirty Grandpa and complain when I suggested actually good movies.
Having a girlfriend is like cutting your dick off in exchange for brief moments of pleasure.
All the time, very frequently on my college years. Who the frick cares what some moronic terminally online neo-normie thinks? you would have to be a special kind of pussy brained homosexual to even give a second of energy to these line of thinking.
Almost all the time, why is going to the cinema even a thing that is weird to do alone?
I go like once a week but it is an arthouse cinema and half the people there are alone. Sometimes there are even cute girls on their own and I dream of talking to them but alas a fantasy it remains
Why don’t you talk to them?
Dunno, if I were sat next to one I would but walking up to one after the film has ended and walking with them would be a bit weird and creepy
>Hey, you want to go back to my place and make a little movie together?
Go for it, champ
Look, if you have trouble making friends etc. you just need to befriend one tolerable (to you) normie human who will serve as your social interface for years to come. It's a great investment. I had one such friend during high school and it was great to be honest, helped me a lot with confidence and it led to meeting girls (I ended up being gay but whatever), partying, drinking, sex, etc. so I had some more than acceptable formative years which I cherish greatly.
University was a different world, I made the mistake of getting into an "elite" STEM only Uni, so 99% the students were almost purely omega-beta male types, and no girls, so I got a core group of nerdy friends, good times, but at the same time a dark cloud of depression and anxiety permeated the whole experience, no social interface for me.
Luckily, I now have a great boyfriend that is extremely extroverted and has way too many friends, he accepts my reclusiveness and zero friends need, though initially this was somewhat strange to him, and I play along when he brings his friends over, and take the opportunity to connect with normie world, latest trends, songs, and while they get drunk I just eat 1g of shrooms and drink water lol. Their friends "like" me, more accurately they tolerate me, I can tell they think I'm a weird fricker but I don't think greatly of them either. I'm just aware the humans are hardwired to be social creatures and depressions and other maladies onset if you don't see others for a while, so I get my socials filled and then I'm good for 2-4 weeks. Great arrangement.
Thanks for reading my blog
Dude stop being a gay. Nobody wants to hear about how amazing it is being an autistic dick sucker
>troonycat post
no but I hate movie theaters. who gives a shit if someone sees a movie alone.

i don't go very often anymore though
of course I do im not a barbarian, even if I think the movie is sub-par the experience is worth it

>even the Black folk giving telling me to shh
i used to go all the time (back when id actually go to movies) but im such an anti-socal autist id always wait like a month after its been out knowing nobody would be seeing it by then and go during the latest showing they'd have during a weekday, and like 9 out of 10 times id get the whole theater to myself so i could do my usual sperging out and jumping to different seats all through the movie because my autism makes it impossible to stay in the same spot for too long and can do all this without any normies around to judge me
I'm gonna be honest, I'd probably smash their phone.
I'm not sure if there's literally any more appropriate response.
i used to go to those more arthouse movies usually showing indie movies and those theaters typically had a lot of nerdy autist types seeing the movie alone rather than big crowds of friends doing the yelling at the screen thing only black people and annoying group of friend types do. usually made for a better movie going experience going to the theater for nerds seeing the movie for the experience of enjoying the movie and not because its le social event to be obnoxious in public
>tiktok

Only to Evangelion 3.0 + 1.0 (I had already watched it on Prime Video). None of my friends wanted to go, my brother and sister haven't watched Evangelion. The only other people in the theatre were a couple of South Americans (I live in Spain), I think they were around three years younger than me.
I have been able to convince another person to any other movie I've wanted to see.

Not usually. I went alone last night for Godzilla. I thought about taking my nephew with me but he's seven and has ADD so watching a movie for 2 horus in another language would probably make him want to die.

I wouldn't care since that million of viewers consist of ugly insecure femoids
I never go anywhere
All the time
Even when I had friends I couldn't go watch things I like, I enjoy them the most when I'm alone
I'd go watch whatever slop I don't care about with them but I'd always watch the things I like the most on my own by night with kino food and at the very back of the room
Yes and I purposefully hire stalkers to follow me.
You, the one taking photos of me?
Well they're the ones identifying you along with your family and friends.
Once you take that photo of me the stalkers send me all your info and I hire cleaners afterwards.
What do the cleaners do? Well let's just say they clean up after me...
The trick is to go during the weekday before or around lunch when no young people are present.
Not everyone is a neet like you.
Also no one cares about the "chad" phenotype or the "virgin" posture, your brain is literally fried from too much memes and shitty self-improvement videos.
I'm not a neet. Have you seriously have no control over your worklife that you can't rearrange your schedule? lmao. I enjoy a theater during the daytime, perfect for watching kino in peace and sitting wherever you want.
They really do. I thought it was a meme until the c**ts at work were talking bad about a guy's shrimp posture. Women are that shallow.
>Also no one cares about the "chad" phenotype or the "virgin" posture
>no one cares about memes
Bro, it's not 2009 anymore, the internet is real life now. Do you think women, the supreme social media addicts and social conformists, aren't having their minds shaped by memes?

If you don't have any responsibilities then yes it does matter. If not there are things that are far more important and influential than what are shared on social medias. Adults don't have the time to keep track on whats trending and whats degrading, they've mouths to feed and bills to pay and just want to enjoy life as it is.
>If you don't have any responsibilities then yes it does matter.
I was talking about women tho.
>"no one cares about the 'virgin' posture"
>body language isn't real
Based. Also go to theme parks during the first two weeks local schools open.
Yes, I went a few days ago to watch Napoleon... Don't be held back by what others might think of you.
Yeah I even go to screeners by myself. People are surprised because I'm hot, also. But why would I go with anyone? I'm not trying to talk to them the whole time. Trying to watch the kino.
Probably three times a month sometimes. It’s one of my favorite little things to do for myself. Not gay new releases though. I go to my local theater that shows endless kino.
>I go to my local theater that shows endless kino.
I wish I had one of those. like the Snarkout Boys had
I watched Saw 3 (years after its release) with that art hoe girl who was roommates with a friend of mine.
Her pick. We were completely alone in the cinema. She suggested we sit in the back row.
Absolutely disgusted by the vilence and was just anxious to get out of there.
Couple of weeks later I get a message from her that she was raped in the park by some drug addicts and police swabbed her vegana. First I heard of her
We went to the cinema a few times after that but always in company.
What a colorful story, anon. Thanks for sharing.
amazing anon. Quite the story.
I wonder if I've been pictured for this behaviour. I do literally everything alone, no fricks given. I go out to restaurants for lunch/dinner alone, movies alone, cafes alone, etc. I'm in my 30s and most of my friends got wives and families now. If I even try to set up a date with a girl they usually just make up an excuse, cancel last minute, or ghost me. Same with the guys actually. Maybe I'm just a weirdo nobody likes. Oh well, being alone is preferable.
>no fricks given
Keep reminding yourself that, everyday, every morning when you wake up and every night before you sleep.
Keep projecting champ
I get a takaway coffee and pace up and down outside while drinking it. I WON'T BE PICTURED.
It's really a very simple idea guys
People doing things alone BY CHOICE feel no problems doing it.
People doing things alone OUT OF NECESSITY feel horribly insecure doing it.
I can't do any social activities alone because I'm a friendless virgin and it's literally all that I think about if I'm somewhere social alone. From something as intensive as solo traveling, to something as minor as going to a restaurant or theater alone. I cannot do it.
No one can do social activities alone silly billy.
Don't go to the cinema.
>1.8m likes for a post making fun of a completely normal looking guy for seeing a movie by himself
>more than double the population of Rome at it's peak see this and think the woman isn't being a massive c**t and that there is something wrong with seeing a movie by yourself
when are normalgays leaving the internet
>a completely normal looking guy
it's a old lady, brother
How utterly autistic are you people? This thread is genuinely hurting my brain.
I’m quite possibly the most socially outgoing person you’ll ever meet and I’m definitely not representative of the average person on this website.
I wouldn’t hesitate going to a cinema alone. There’s nothing embarrassing, strange or unusual about it, and even if it was, who gives a frick? Nobody cares about you. You’re there to enjoy yourself. If you give that much credence to what other people think of you, you will never do anything worth doing in life.
t. travel internationally at least once every two weeks solo, eat at restaurants solo all the time by myself, get drunk at bars and clubs by myself, It’s fricking normal.
see
Interesting take actually.
It's not interesting, it's just a fact. Especially the solo travel thing. Do you ever hear about losers traveling solo to another country and suddenly becoming some social butterfly where they talk with everyone, hit the clubs, pick up random women, make lots of friends? No, you hear that fromthe normies who solo travel.
When you do expected social activities alone by choice, you feel very confident and secure doing them because "I could be doing these with my friends/family/gf/bf if I wanted to, but I want to do it alone". When you have to eat in a restaurant alone because you have no one else to eat with, go to a theater alone because you have no friends, go on a huge vacation alone with no one to share the memories with because you have no friends/family to travel with, you are not going to be happy.
What the actual frick is this mental illness I am reading? Why is everyone ITT acting like not being the center of the fricking universe means you are human scum? Think lesser of yourselves your narcissistic homosexuals, nobody cares and they shouldn't.
Unironic narcissistic post.
>no u
Run face first into your nearest brick wall
wow cool mr.lonewolf alpha over here in the moonlight forests all by themselves while the beta wolves seek safety in their pack
It's not that I won't go to the cinema alone; I'm tired of the going to the cinema alone.
>sociopathic normalgays looking for any and every opportunity to bully and mistreat anyone that is seen as "weaker" or less accepted by the herd than they are
Nothing has changed. It was like this 30 years ago, now you just see it online because these fricking walking pustules all have smartphones.
i think the only movie i've ever gone to see by myself was Black Panther, cause i had just gone through a breakup and the friends i had at the time were chuds i didn't wanna invite cause i didn't want or value their input on the film.
you did value their input, you just didn't want to hear anyone trash your cape sloppa.
please trust and believe that the value of their input was an ever diminishing commodity by that point, i really didn't. lmao
I think it kinda depends on what movie you go to. I ended up going to Oppenheimer and Saw X alone while on a business trip and it was not awkward. Seeing the Super Mario Bros. movie when it was super early thinking everyone would be in school and instead everyone used it as a babysitter? Awkward. I did see the new Hunger Game film with my GF at her request and holy hell there were groups of like 20 going there.
I'm not a fan of doing so but some people like the experience and wanna focus on the film. Some films are better on your own and plenty of people are busy nowadays. It's just easier to drop on by the theater on your own time than making it work with multiple schedules.
>going to the movies alone is le bad.
Why can't people just leave each other alone it's not hard
The amount of people that use this site now who are comfortable admitting that they have friends, have girlfriends and see contemporary movies is keeping me awake at night. I don't think I belong here anymore.
Find a blackpill forum unironically. That's where all the serious loners and outcasts have gone.
I'm not blackpilled or depressed, I just wish this place was still full of nerds and not normalgays.
>forum where the discourse can be boiled down to "chad chad chad chad chad chad"
no thanks. i just want commiseration over tfw no gf and normies without obsessing over muh chad, muh hypergamy, and muh facial structure
One time I went to movies alone and some flaming homosexual Black sat next to me and kept trying to talk to me. He took off his shoes and stuck his feet on the railings. Fricking gross ill never go without backup again
is there some social protocol about not watching movies by yourself? it's hard to keep up with the times in this old body
I will go by myself sometimes if it's capeshit or some other kino that my gf isn't interested in. I go to the local luxury kinoplex and have food and wienertails delivered to me right to my seat. If anyone else is watching me, and I doubt they are, they can see I am having way more fun than even they are so I don't give a shit about being seen alone watching kino.
I lost a ton of weight, got ripped went to the movies and some cutie zoomer girl at ticket stand asked for my number after the movie, movie was kino too. No annoying friend asking questions or giving commentary every 30 seconds, no person who is visibly bored with movie, no shitty convo about movie after it's over, I can have a schizo convo with myself.
Going to movies alone is based.
So did you frick her or what?
Most of my trips out to the theater in the past decade have been solo, and I've never once thought anything abnormal about it. Maybe if you're going by yourself to a kids' movie it can look a little weird but otherwise, no one even notices, let alone gives a shit, that you're there by yourself. Even if you go with friends you're just gonna sit in silence for the duration of the film, provided you're not a subhuman, so what difference does it make? Just enjoy your kino.
>be me in my late teens
>always self conscious about going to movies alone but have no friends
>get the clever idea to take a notepad with me, and pretend to jot down notes occasionally, so people think I'm a critic
>works to give me some confidence as if anyone gives a shit
>one day after leaving a movie a couple of cute girls ask me why I have a notepad so I tell them I review movies
>one asks "oh really? do you work for a website?"
>get flustered
>HAHA N-NO IT'S JUST SOMETHING I DO FOR MYSELF HAHA
>she looks down at my spiral notebook which is open to the most recent page, it's just scribbles and swirls
This'll be on reddit within the hour, no doubt
classic anonymous
NOPE, no money to woke israeliterats, and all Hollywoke movies are fricking TRASH anyway, so what am I missing out on? I only come on Cinemaphile to b***h about trannies and SJWs.
Grow up and be selfish homosexuals. Your name and appearance will never mean anything to anyone. You are not a main character in anything.
>Your name and appearance will never mean anything to anyone.
lies lies lies
fricking everyone laughs at me
Outside of the split second they see you, no one ever thinks about you again until you force them to think about you.
Every normalgay I ever talk to is always gossiping about other people behind their backs so the only natural conclusion is that they're also gossiping about me behind my back when I'm not around.
when they're trying to gaslight us, every one of them fails to mention this. often times even the very same people that are giving us "advice" will do this. people talk so much shit all the time
Yeah but sometimes gossip is a one way street. Like one person is complaining about a third party, and the person listening just nods and agrees to move through the conversation. It doesn't mean they agree with any of it.
gossip shouldn't happen at all. obviously that's a fantasy, but the fact remains that any kind whatsoever is unacceptable to me, even if it's just one way. basically i have this overwhelming need for everyone (within reason) to like me
Well that's a hang up that you have to deal with, because you will never live in fantasy land.
>until you force them to think about you.
see, i do this unintentionally all the time, and i'm not always sure when i'm doing it. also, i generally remember and judge people that are even more awkward and cringe than me. why wouldn't other people do that as well?
>You are not a main character in anything.
So why be selfish? You don't deserve shit. How about making sure your neighbor and loved ones are taken care of first. It will be reciprocated in kind.
>You don't deserve shit.
Get some fricking mind conditioning
>How about making sure your neighbors are taken care of first
Nobody does this anymore and I doubt you can do shit to help anyone anyhow
When I went to see John Wick and The World's End, the theaters were completely empty. I got up and paced around the theater while watching the movie because I might as well have used the space I had to myself while I had it.
>be me, years ago
>go to theater by myself during the day because nothing to do
>watch spiderman
>there are like five people in the theater
>movie finishes, leaving
>older woman begins talking to me about the movie
>psure she's hitting on me
>but I have to take a massive shit
>hurridly excuse myself and break contact
>it's over
Why did I have to shit in that moment....
I go alone because you never want to watch what I'm watching.
Oh wait.
I don't go to movies since Fury Road - I just pirate now!
I used to sneak in every weekend. free air-con.
comfy.
I go to the theater alone but I just do this the whole time
>go to the movies alone
>have to go to the cinema showers before the movie
>robert laughs at my small penis in the showers
>go to order crab legs afterwards
>robert says the crab legs are all out for the day
>tfw
OK Hollywood, here's a movie idea for ya:
Incel is afraid to go to movies alone, believes all the shit in this thread and tries, AND fails, with hilarious results some of the things suggested (like spreading shit on seats around him, sneaking out early, etc.
Finally, he gets an idea: what if I FORCE people to watch movies with me?
So he gets a gun and also makes a realistic looking bomb and makes some smaller explosives.
He then prcedes to kidnap people to watch movies with him - detonating small bombs to show he's not fricking around, but having a big allah akbar bomb strapped around his body.
"Don't tell anyone, don't ask for help or I blow up the entire theater and it'll be YOUR fault"
Buys tickets to fandango with hostages.
Watches movies with hostages.
After the movie, with the victims crying silently out of fear of death, have him do a Film Critic review of what they just saw, but have him gag the hostages.
Dunno how to end this, maybe dark horror where he dumps the body and no one ever finds the corpses?
I prefer going to the theater alone and do it all the time. Well, not really since there is nothing ever worth seeing. Last movie I saw in theaters was in 2019. But when I do I prefer to be alone.
>went to go see Joker alone
>got my seat in the back row
>late screening in a boring city so very few people there
>there was a couple a few seats away on my left and another a few rows below
>both of the women kept turning to look at me throughout the movie
>poker face through the whole movie for fear of reprisal
Pre-covid I used to do it all the time. Whenever I was having a really bad work day or week I'd cool off by going to the movies and getting my mind off work.
Since covid? nah, idk if it's coincidence but every movie that comes out is dogshit now
Dude probably went to jail. Whether or not the truck was being a moronic butthole, the fat man had time to easily slow down and let the truck merge.
>the fat man had time to easily slow down and let the truck merge.
It's not whether he could, but whether he should
homosexual should've gotten behind him, he fricked around and found out, that's what you get
I also just realized this was on a bridge. Yeah that fat guy is probably getting charged with reckless endangerment and reckless driving.
ok reddit
>go to see the dark knight rises alone for midnight release
>big crowd, sold out
>loner fat guy sitting next to me
>elbows me and says something like "this is gonna be awesome" when the movie starts
>seethe at the idea that this fat guy thinks he can just talk to me as if i'm an equal
>realize years after the fact that I am his equal and that was an opportunity to make a friend
Oh well.
Yes and I've seen lots of people do this and no one cares. Is "don't go to movies alone" a burger thing?
I go see movies by myself and I don't care what you guys think. The theater is awesome too, won't share it. 🙂
I usually do.
as long as im high and i buy snacks the experience is good and nobody can judge me
