Have you ever fallen asleep during your favorite movie?

Sometimes, I put on a favorite movie and get so relaxed that I fall asleep. I know what's going to happen next, so it's easier to relax and unwind. There are no big surprises. A favorite movie is like an old friend. Do you ever fall asleep while watching a favorite movie?

My husband does this, but I never do, because even though I know the movie by heart, I like it so much that I want to enjoy every WAKING moment of it. I tease my hsuband because he always falls asleep during movies.

ya i've done that before. if i've seen the movie before it dosent really matter, because i know how it ends. for me i have to watch two movies before i start falling asleep. sometimes watching movies is the only way that i can fall asleep unless i'm very tired after a long day. i use to fall asleep to music but ever since i first got a tv in my room when i was young i cant any more. music just keeps me awake and i have to shut if off sometime during the night.

Nope, i never fall asleep when I'm watching my favorite movie before. If i really feel sleepy, i will switch it off and went to bed. But it happens to my dear once. He is really tired that time and still insists to accompany me, and he fell asleep beside me.

I do at times. I am really good at staying awake usually if its interesting or my favorite movie. but you can only watch your favorite movie so many times until it starts putting you to sleep. at least thats how i have been noticing it. my favorite movies are "hackers, Star Wars series, titanic. And those are just a few. I can now rarely watch them because I usually fall asleep watching them sometimes I don't.

It happens all the time. Thankfully, I have all of my favorites on tape and I have a DVR cable box, so if I miss a favorite scene, I can rewind and see it.

I do. I try to watch movies when I am not tired at all, because you are right, you get so relaxed that sometimes you end up falling asleep. I usually will pop up some popcorn and eat during the movie...that keeps me awake.

Hello dear beauty queen. I don't usually fall asleep while watching a favorite movie, but my mom does. Well, I often find my mom dozing over a TV play. I know that it is because my mom needs to have a good sleep as she cannot sleep well in the evening when it is time for her to sleep. It is good that my mom sleeps a little while while watching TV. lol

I'm so sorry for coming in so late. No, it hadn't happened to me yet. However, there are chances, if one watches a movie when one is very tired.

I can fall asleep through just about any movie, whether it be a new one or an old favourite! Thankfully, I don't do it if I see a film at the cinema, but if I'm at home you can almost lay money on my nodding off.

Yes all the time. It is ok if I am watching it ON DEMAND on comcast or a video but plane old TV I get upset with myself because I really wanted to see it.

If I'm comfy on the sofa with my quilt then its likely that I will fall asleep and if its my favourite film then I know whats happened and know I can always watch it again. I will just fall asleep through TV programmes aswell especially if I'm that relaxed!!

i never slept on my favorite movie but i remember i slept once because i just came to the dentist for tooth extraction and my boyfriend then (now my hubby) wants to see a movie just to relax but the anesthesia got on my nerves and i just feel asleep! my hubby was grinning widely coz i wake up when the movie was about to end. But he said the movie was quite boring so its ok.
