I have mixed feelings about watching movies. Sometimes I prefer to watch alone because I value my peace and quiet. Moreover, I need some time for myself, especially when I'm feeling stressed. However, there are days when I enjoy watching movies with someone else, especially if it's a horror movie. How about you?

I really like to watch alone because when I watch with people they talk a lot and ask obvious questions and I don't like it because I can miss a lot of interesting things by answering their questions. That's why I try to avoid it

I understand how you feel. It can be frustrating when people talk excessively during a movie, or worse, give away spoilers. Some people just can't seem to help themselves, and it can really ruin the experience.

Hahahaha. Yes, it is fun to watch with friends, especially if it is a horror or thriller movie. LOL

Watching alone is way better than doing it with someone else as it can help you enjoy the movie without distractions. LOL
 
I don't watch movies and i don't keep friends. Am introvert who mind my business. I only have friends in my working place. We only chat when we are at break time. Apart from that, my home is like sanctuary for me. I don't need disturbance.

I also have problems when I watch with someone that I have to explain different scenes in the movie and I hate doing it

I like to watch TV series with someone in order to have someone to discuss events and characters with, and in the series as a whole, it won't be possible to discuss so much about the movie, so you can watch it yourself

I see. I thought you were extroverted. Hehe. I am introverted, too, and prefer to be alone most of the time.

It is better to watch a movie alone because it allows you to focus on the movie without any distraction. Sometimes, when watching a movie with others, they tend to be too loud, which can be quite annoying.

Watching a TV series with someone can be a great idea as you can have meaningful conversations about the next scene or what will happen to the characters.

It largely depends on the occasion and the type of subject matter of the film or series. If it's something that requires a lot of attention to understand the subject, I prefer to watch it alone, now if it's something funny or something that conveys a feeling that makes me want some company to share the moment with, in this case I like to watch it together.
 
I see. Sometimes it is better to watch a romantic, funny, or scary movie with someone. LOL. Most of the time I watch alone, which is fine.

When I watch a movie at home I prefer to be alone, often lying down and actually sleeping. but if I'm at the cinema I prefer to have friends.

It's been a long time since I watched a movie at the theater. Since the pandemic, I just watch movies at home.

I can do both. When I'm at home, I prefer to watch a movie alone. I can just lay down on my sofa and enjoy a cup of tea or coffee or have some snacks. If I go to cinema, I prefer to have friends.

That is great. I have not watched a movie at the cinema for many years. I hope I will be able to do it again one of these days, especially when I have the budget.
