If u watch a movie with me, u better WATCH the movie! Phone in pocket. Notifications silenced. Snacks and drinks prepared before we press play. Don’t ask inane plot questions. This is how it’s meant to be done, goddamnit!

I can’t explain it, but this drives me up the wall. Have attention spans become so cooked that we can’t even focus on a single source of entertainment? I get so distracted by it that I can’t fully enjoy the movie. I usually watch by myself to avoid this

i had a friend that insisted on seeing my favorite movies but admittedly could never sit through them. we’re not friends any longer lol. i don’t mind pausing for breaks but don’t just get up and leave the room or get on your phone??

I like being able to talk about whatever media I’m watching with a friend. That’s shows focus a lot more than just dissociating toward a screen.

It’s different for each person, all are valid, they just don’t mix well lol U gotta know what your friends will do and act accordingly, which might mean not watching movies with them and that’s ok
