This post on Ali's blog made me laugh a little, but also I feel the same way. I am constantly going to the movies with friends to see a movie version of an amazing book I had recently read or just to see a really good actor/actress that I like. But I also agree that maybe it should go back to being more of a personal experience. When she brought that up it reminded me of a video I watched recently. It was a list of things that you should do alone at least once. On that list was going to the movies. That seems kind of weird now, but if you think about it, it could be really cool. You could get a lot more engaged with the movie, especially since there is no one talking to you about it, and you can experience more of the emotions fully, without being embarrassed. Like if you went to a sad movie or even a movie about a love story, you could cry without the fear of being judged.
