As a kid watching movies in a theatre was never heard of We got to see documentaries – boring and tiring in the school.
The first movie I watched in a threatre was Robe a religious one and so it was for every youngster of those times. It is only later when I moved to a city seeking greener pastures I got an opportunity to watch movies and more so after I got married Practically every saturday we had rendezvous with theatres galore.
I no longer go to theatres as I find it very noisy – I had one such experience a long time ago but no more. I watch movies sitting in the confines of my home now and that too rarely I spend time online sharing and learning

I didn’t watch movies at a young age. I rarely visited the cinema.
Just like mine your parents must have been strict about this
Yes i did but all funny movie
Nice to know that. Your parents took you to movies.
I was never a fan of the movie …. I am not a movie fan …. what comedy or a beautiful love movie I still look at … violence and crime is too much in real life … I have not been in the cinema for 40 years
Not surprising really. I too will never watch movies in theatres.
I love movies and I want to the theatre to watch one whenever I can
Youngsters can tolerate that noise
So Grace, you had to get tickets in advance if you wanted to watch something in the theater. I remember so many kids talking and making noise during the movie. I wonder if their parents wanted them out of the house so sent them to the theater and there they bothered others. Makes sense to get tickets ahead of time. Too bad you could not get your money back for all the noise. I would just go when wanted to see something and if not sold out fine but if sold out would see if anything else to see.
Our little nephew was with us and I gave a hint that I would want to leave. He promptly comes with a rebuke as to why I had come and so I should stay till the end (lol)
I also think going to a movie theater is very very noisy and expensive. I love watching Netflix at home and can pause it and not miss anything if want to get up and do something.
The last movie I watched in a theatre was very noisy and we had to sit in the front row as we had not booked tickets in advance (lol)
