Watching a movie by myself

So I want to go watch Broken Flowers tonight but no one wants to come with me, so I'm considering going alone. How loserish is this?

I've gone to numerous concerts by myself and always have a good time.

Not looserish at all IMO.

It actually seems to me that perhaps staying home, for fear of seeming looserish might be the looserest decision of all.

I guess nothing could equal the creepiness factor of me going to see "Harry Potter" alone at 10pm....

how about going to see "Mean Chicks" alone? or "The Notebook" roffle, top that!

I've done it many times. In high school, I had to see 'Life of Brian' and 'Apocalypse Now' by myself because I hung with braindead losers who didn't appreciate the great art of these flicks.

More recently, I have seen the 'Harry Potter' and 'LOTR' flicks by myself 'cause my wife hates that [censored]. So, I take the day off from work and check them out. Hit the cardroom for the rest of the day. I have a good old time.

I do this a lot, about half the time I see a movie is by myself

I only feel weird if it's crowded

Life Of Brian. Just reading the name makes me begin weeping uncontrolably.

No wait...what an ass I am...that's Brian's Song.

One of life's simple pleasures for me is going to watch a movie by myself. But when I do I almost always go to one of those small independent film chains, on the weekdays, when there are maybe 10 people in the theater, tops. I love that.
