Since Lisa will never go to the movies with me, I was going to go to "The Good Shepherd" tonight, alone. She told me it was too weird to go by myself, I said no one else would go with me, she asked if I had asked my good friend Dan to go along? I countered that it may be weird to go alone, but weirder to ask another guy. Which is worse?

i think alone is stranger. i don't know, we shouldn't think it's odd to be solitary at times, but when you see that one guy sitting alone in a theater, it just seems creepy.
You are probably right, especially the 10pm showing on Christmas night, might get some looks...
Nothing wrong with the solo movie goers. I used to go to movies by myself ALL THE TIME when I lived in Hawaii. I grew to actually prefer it. And whether its movies or really anything else, I HAVE to have my daily and weekly times of solitude. It refreshes my heart, my soul, and my mind.

Cheers!
it's funny, we go to the movies with people, chat during the preshow, and then sit silently. honestly, i don't mind watching movies alone, so i can just totally get imersed in the film. don't bother me.
but, i also like watching a movie, and then being able to discuss it afterwards, which takes at least one other.
