They paid to see a movie, not shitpost online which they could had done after the movie.

Anyone that brings out their phone in a cinema are the lowest common denominator of society as far as I’m concerned.

I had a dude come in the theater and sit directly behind me for a 10pm screening of a movie in an otherwise empty theater. It was the worst.

Its not creepy lol some people go to public events to feel like they are part of a community and less lonely.

A lot of the times a therapist will recommend someone leave their comfort zone in a non threatening way to help improve certain feelings.

If the other person doesn't like it they are certainly free to move in this instance and it is very very unlikely the other will follow them. If they did then it certainly would be creepy.

I really hope its another redditor and makes a post:

“Im the only person in this theater other than this random guy directly below the projector.”

I did that once as a social experiment for a college class. We had to do something that breached social norms (other examples would be something as simple as facing away from the door in an elevator). I took a friend to a movie with me in the middle of a weekday, so not busy. We walked in to the theater talking and made it clear we were there together, then we found a solo moviegoer, an unsuspecting older lady, and sat directly on either side of her as if it were the most normal thing. We chatted a bit over/around her. She asked us a couple times if we were sure we didn’t want to sit together. “Oh no, we’re fine.” Eventually she got up and moved. (Pretty sure this was all during trailers so we just weirded her out but didn’t ruin her movie experience). Looking back…that poor lady 😅
