If I want to watch a movie I'll pick one and watch it privately, if I want to talk to people we can do it over drinks or smokes.
The entire concept just seems weird. You engaging in an asocial, if not anti-social activity with other people? Why? The closest thing I've had to a good time watching movies with other people is when they're quite enough and I'm drunk enough that I forget they exist at all. Same reason I don't go to theatres
Not to mention sitting next to people. jfc if we're not lovers I do not want to be sat near enough to you to notice you for 90+ minutes. By minute 20 I want to crawl out of my own skin.
Is this autism? Zoomerism? Some sort of anti-social personality disorder? I don't know but I do know you're weird for not sharing the belief with me.

The main reason to do it is so you can talk about it later. This of course assumes the movie is actually interesting.
The only people I know IRL who think going to the movies by yourself is weird are women. I guess it's from some sort of social pressure?
