I would commit a hate crime if this happened to me

[–] mostNONheinous@lemmy.world 41 points 2 days ago

I legit had this happen once, but with my wife and I. Thought we were the only two in the theater, and just as the trailers end a guy pops in and walks all the way up to the back row and sits down next to my wife. We were in motion seats that you pay specifically for, if the other motions seats aren’t reserved they don’t function. So we couldn’t ask him to move. Worst part was about halfway through the movie my soda caught up with me. I sat for over an hour having to piss badly because I couldn’t leave my wife alone with some strange ass dude

I don’t think awkward “social experiment” weirdos are a protected group

As an introvert, I do not approve.

Yeah this crap infuriates me. It almost happened to me once, the theater wasnt this empty, but there were like 5-10 total. I happened to look right before I left for the movie and just moved to the row behind...but why are people like this?

Idk man. Built different I guess lol

The baller move would be to take the seat directly behind him.

[–] Rooskie91@discuss.online 28 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Or directly in front of him while wearing a very stylish hat.

[–] Pencilnoob@lemmy.world 23 points 2 days ago

makes me think of

1 hour and 10 minutes into the movie, they both turn to face each other and scream:

"CHICKEN JOCKEY!"

When COVID shutdown ket up and theaters opened I saw The Last Vermeer. It was me and one other guy. When the movie ended we sat somewhat far apart and talked about the film for 15 minutes. It was nice to not be the only one there and to talk with someone who saw the film

I know this is all about awkwardness but what if you get the Lemmy Be Wholesome ending where they made a new friend who also likes the niche film you do?

Not that I recommend it. Lol

[–] match@pawb.social 13 points 2 days ago

Lemmy Be Holesome ending where they trade handjobs in the empty theatre

If somebody does this it's grounds for a self defense plea.

[–] SaharaMaleikuhm@feddit.org 2 points 2 days ago

Sounds like someone is getting lucky.

Ex and I saw Blade Runner 2049 like this, even in much the same seats. Fuck me but that was an experience.
