watcher are you?
Sit back and chill and enjoy the movie?
Criticise every moment?
Provide a running commentary ?
Sporadic?
Maybe one film a year and I’ll see maybe half of that.
Do you fall asleep?
That's still far more preferable than someone who won't shut up with their running commentary.
No, I’m doing other things at the same time ‘cos I get bored with the film.
That last comment sounds heart felt
Watching anything with the youngest makes me want to reach for the duct tape. Nearing the end of The Martian, the songs are good but I'm not allowed to sing along

I get absorbed, and enjoy it, unless the plot gets too drifty, then I get bored and walk away.

I disapprove of fiction.
And biopics.
Documentaries are sometimes tolerable.

An occasional Bio-Pic is OK. But Fiction, for me, makes the best movies.
I really enjoy the old 30's and 40's era Swashbucklers.

- there it is, the finest fiction movie ever made.

He still loves that film and I still can't sing along to it.
I've just watched The Father. Heartbreaking and confusing. It's meant to be confusing.
