I knew a guy in college that smoked pot all day every day and watched Adam Sandler movies repeatedly. That was sick. He couldn't understand why his girl ditched him.

I don't drink very often anymore, but I do enjoy the Alamo Drafthouse on occasion.

I always have a bottle of Pepsi Max while watching anything. Never touch alcohol though.

Heheh, I thought that I was the only one who did this. Ya, I usually have a beer or 2 when I am watching a movie, but I am Canadian so it kinda goes with the territory I guess.

I always get an urge for Irish whiskey when I watch the Departed.

Always gotta have a cheap domestic when watching Entourage. For most action films, tequila slammer before and a Corona during. For some of my favorite comedies, just get drunk fast.

I love it in the beginning when he's in the liquor store with a shopping cart. I think I'll pop it in this weekend and pour me a few Jack & Cokes.

I like to have a nice beer/lager when I am watching a DVD, whatever the genre. Few cans of Carling or a couple bottles of Miller/Fosters always do the trick. And if I am off work, I'll have a beer in the day or night, as long as its cold and the movie is good...Rock on.

Rob Schneider movies make me thirsty for hemlock and arsenic.

I noticed since I haven`t had a drink in 2 years most of the stuff I thought was good exactly sucks and thats probally why hollywood has plenty of beer commercials, they want to keep you drunk so you won`t notice inferior product.

I usually have a 20 oz bottle of Coke Zero or Cherry Coke Zero, before that was Diet Mt. Dew, and I pop a batch of popcorn in my popcorn machine..

If I feel like a beer, I'll drink a beer. Same with liquor. If I happen to be watching a movie during that time, then so be it. Drinking isn't a requisite, nor a deterrent, to watching a movie.

A movie, with a few pints added, is a common theme in my home as well...

People in French movies are always drinking wine. I can resist until about 20 minutes into the film.

Oh yes, a nice rich shiraz pretty much goes well with any movie.

As I watch a movie, I partake in whatever activity pertains to that particular movie. For example, when I watch Thank You For Smoking, I enjoy a good cigarette or two. When I watch Sideways, I drink wine. When I watch Fight Club, I punch myself in the face over and over.

You don't want to know what I do when I watch Silence of the Lambs.

Never. Unless it's a movie/tv show I've seen before. Even if I have one drink, I get too relaxed and my mind wanders and I don't get as much out of the movie.

So I just watch less movies.

No, but I would if I could get it around here.
