I just went to cinema last week. i went there with my friends and we plan to go there again after the Chinese New year. I think it is fun to watch movie and hang out together with friends especially if all of them are funny, talkative and easy going. we have total of 14 people including me. =D have you ever been to a cinema with your friends? how many friends is the most? Tell some story about the events.

yes, i remember, when i was still in college. we were a group of classmates at that time and we were about 8. if we have free time or weekends and there was a good movie to watch, especially if the movie story has something to do with our studies. i am already married with kids. sometimes we also go out and have fun outside and we go and watch kids' favorites. but most of the time, we just stay home and watch movies at home. home viewing is a lot cheaper than we go to cinema.

of course, it's a lot more different watching from the cinema. but we can also get the feel of it with our sound system and turning of the living room lights.

There's not much difference really except that the cinema screen is a lot bigger. But if you have a 29 or 32 inc TV and your own home theater system there's really not much of a difference. The only difference is if you're watching a movie at home you can go to the bathroom anytime you want and don't wait until you kidneys are about to burst

Hi cintoy!^^ Fourteen people?? Wow. That's a lot. I haven't been into theaters with such a large group. I think the largest group I've been with to the theaters is at most ten including me. Those were my friends and classmates back in school. I can't remember what movie we watched. I'm not sure if it was Mulan because if it was, I think the guys wouldn't went with us girls.^^ Then the other times, I was with my co-employees. One time we watched a sci-fi film, can't remember too what film that was. The other time we went and watched Twilight.^^ I love watching movies and I go with friends as much as possible. I also watch movies in theaters alone but it's more fun when you're with somebody. After the movie you can immediately express your views and share them with your friends or even argue with them. Unlike when you're alone, you have to wait to go home or see a friend before you can burst out what you thought of the movie.^^

Of course I have. I've been with my friends and watched movie together for a couple of times. There was this instance when we watched deep blue sea way back 1998 or 99.. We were laughing and talking and people started to get pissed with our noisiness. Well, it pisses me too when i am watching and people beside me are talking LOL.. I know where they're coming from. I can't just stop talking and laughing because we were like 10-12 people during that time. One of the most memorable moment and happiest days of my life.

I don't wanna be kicked and it's a nice feeling my friends were there, otherwise, i was already kicked even before the movie starts. We were like a battalion so people thought twice before they looked at us with eyebrows facing each other. You are right...I was just kidding, we shouldn't be over talkative because some people are engross with the movie. We would not want others to spoil our moment, would we?

Its okay to talk and laugh. if they are looking at you, just ignore them. it's just a two hour movie. just don';t be too over as to disturb the whole theater. you will be kicked =D

yes ofcourse. i went to the movies with my friends we watch this horror movie (i forgot what movie) and it was showing on the first day, so it was so full. we sat on the very top (i think we have a total of 10 people)we were so freakin loud, it was so fun until someone snitch on us, so this huge bouncer went up to us and told to leave and ofcourse we got scared, so we left, and everyone was laughing afterwards. that was the first time i got kicked out of the movie theatres.

Yes! I have been with my friends several times. We are five in the group, and together we watched High School Musical Movies in theaters all together. That was fun, and it will always be. Ofcourse that's normal because that's you friends.

I often go for a movie with friends . we are a group of 9 and we just go on commenting on everything abt the movie and tats fun. we keep laughing through out the movie even if the movie is dumb . the fun part is tat it annoys and disturbs other people in theatre

i always laugh whenever my other friends scream or talk too loud in the cinema. And everyone of us (except the loud talking one) will look at him (the loud voice one) as if we are not his friend and he is disturbing us as well. hahaha

Dear friend, I used to go especially during my college days. Later we all got our own engagements and become busy, may be lack of time to get together to go view movies. Even though we gather together we would either go to restaurants, parks or malls just spend time though chatting. It is really a fun and enjoyable and feel special when we go for movie that too good movies.

Hi cintoy! It is always fun going to the cinema with friends! I used to love to go with a bunch of friends! Now I don't go too often because it is very expensive here to go to a movie and before we turn around they come out on DVD's anyway! It is much cheaper to rent them and watch them in the comfort of your own home or get together in someone elses home and watch it there!

but watching dvd with friends are not as exciting as watching in Cinema. Moreover, we should have big space if we have lots of friends

Yes.. It's fun of course that you're watching a movie with friends. BUT that depends.. if that friend is annoying and like love to talk while your watching.. that's so uncool. haha..

I haven't been to a movie with a friend for quite sometime...but when I was younger I went with my friends we are all 10 in total. It is indeed fun, just like what you have experienced. We ate afterwards on a pancake house and we just share stories until nighttime. I really miss those days, but now they are all busy and working hard to earn money. It is a great thing to spend time with your friends...sometime in your life, you'll never have the time to spend more time together anymore...so savor what you've got while everything's still fun and happy for you. Nice topic you started here. Happy mylotting.

yeah. we have been friends from highschool and since everybody hs finished college and have been working, it's hard for us to gather together anymore. There will be some friends who can't make it or have some important business to do. I can't imagine when some of us has got married.

nah... we'll not go to watch boring movie together. If we do, then the one to recommend the movie will need to pay for all the tickets. =D

Of course, I would never go to the cinema by myself, it would be boring not to be able to talk about the movie afterwards. After going to the cinema its also a good time to go get something to eat and talk with your mates and have a good time.
@cintoy (1011)

yeah. we usually have some great times such as shopping, or eating before we go to cinema. after that, we will go to hang out at cafe to chat

I go to cinema with my bestfriend so often, I even can't remember how many times! Usually I go with my bestfriends, just the 2 of us. But sometimes I go with my other friends.. I remember when we watched a romantic movie. She hugged me most of time and always said that he wanted a boyfriend like the main role in that movie. I laughed so hard then :D maybe if other people saw us that moment would think that we was a lesbian couple, hahahaha. She hugged me and laid her head on my shoulder, imagining that I was her boyfriend during watching that movie, LOL.

hahha.. that's what bestfriends are. they will be themselves when they are around their best friend. don't you agree?

I used to watch movies at the cinemas with my friends when i was still single. But i hardly do now ever since i got married. I just find it expensive to watch movies in theaters since i can just watch it on cable TV after a few months. Or i can buy pirated copies at a very cheap price where i can even watch the movies over and over again if i want to. Although i missed the feeling of excitement of watching a movie in a theater especially when movie is about to start. It's just a different feeling. But when you're married you tend to sacrifice little things like going to the cinemas. Cheers!
