The thing is, the reason I haven't seen anything is because I'm not interested and don't have enough of an attention span to sit through stuff I'm not super into, so any time someone I've dated has been like, "we can watch so many things together!" my response is no thank you.
You're missing out on the hanging out part of it. Cook food together, put the movie on, Talk about anything you two want, pay attention to whatever scenes they really think is cool. It doesn't matter if you pay that much attention to it. You're being together.
People who are "into movies" don't tend to like it when you talk through movies...
I like to have a discussion about the movies I watch during the movie. Sometimes the acting is terrible, or the writing is too unbelievable I just have to say something.
I will stay still and quiet if I must, but that just makes it boring.
How I treat a movie is dependent on the type of movie it is.
For comedies, action movies or cheesy B-movies, I love to have a laugh and trash talk. That's almost the whole point.
For "serious" movies, I want to watch it, then do the talking afterwards.
