I almost always go to movies alone. When I go with another person it's usually my wife. I guess that makes my answer N/A.

You are not allowed to call someone a bigot if you can't spell it correctly.





Back on topic: If/when I can - I observe the one seat rule. It has nothing to do w/ homophobia, I just like to enjoy the space. Sharing an armrest sucks, and most movie theaters don't have enough leg room for me as it is, so I try to get all the leg room I can.

depends on the friend

I don't follow the rule. But it makes sense that one would want to be comfortable when watching a movie. So one want to sit a little apart.

When I go to movies with male friends we hold hands and sometimes make out with each other. That way, no one thinks we're homophobic.

I don't go to movies with male friend, that would be gay.

If there are seats available, the one seat rule is in effect.
But I don't care either way, its just a comfort thing

I see people leave a seat between them occasionally, but I never do it. Why would I want to go to a movie with a friend and then sit by myself?

I try, whenever possible, to leave an empty row BEHIND my seat. It cuts down on the kicks to the head.

I've never done that, ever. And I've never thought anything homosexual about it.

This isn't necessarily directed at you, but at this comment in general that has been made a couple times in this thread. What difference does it make if you sit right next to your friend or one seat apart when you go to the movies? You're going to see a movie right? Not to have a running discussion about the film? How is the experience any different if you are right next to somebody or if you are a seat apart? I know that once the lights go down, my eyes and my thoughts are on the screen, not who I am next to.

No, I don't follow this "rule."

Also, I hate when people do this at crowded showings during opening weekends. I've had to basically sit in the front row for Return of the King and Kill Bill 2, when there were tons of empty seats that would have been open if people would have just sat together instead of spread apart.

i go with my friend and his girlfriend and i make her sit between us

i'm a big guy, so if there is extra room at the theater i take it.

Actually the only rule that I follow is that I make sure I have 2 Sprites on each handrest just in case some fine honey decides to sit next to me or some big sasquach does.

Buffer is a definite

I like to cross my legs.

It depends on if the theater is packed or not. If there's room and I'm not with a big pack of friends, I'll usually sit 1 away from my friend and we use the middle seats for our coats or unwanted popcorn bags or whatever. The only reason I really do it is just that I'm a pretty big guy so I get more elbow room that way On thing I have about sitting next to someone is sharing the arm rests

I read it as big gut.

haha you think thats a homophobic thing? lol.

its a space thing. i tried it once (saw it on seinfeld...buffer zone) but it was lame. gotta sit with my buddies. plus it looks like you went to the movies by yourself.

Of course I do.

Sitting any closer to one of my guy friends makes me WAAAY too horny to enjoy the movie.
