No.... ? .... NO!

It's definitely best when you're not really expecting it (both). Go to
the cinema on the spur of the moment, at the drop of a hat. Try to
avoid reading anything about films you haven't seen, try to see them
cold, be seduced, enticed, manipulated. Let the passion take you, lift
you. And if you fall then you fall, but sometimes you fly.

It is never fun to plan because it is *always* anticlimactic.

IMHO

Sex is sex. Moviegoing is moviegoing. The fun is in the planning.
What actually happens is anti-climactic. IMHO.

Spurt of the moment, perhaps. As moviegoers, we've all become premature
ejaculators. With all the foofaraw (or pre-cum) accompanying even the
smallest of independent films, there is very little chance to be
seduced by a film anymore. We start going soft as soon as the lights
go down. As you said, once in a while you fly. But it's very rare for
a film to stand erect on its own these days. And as one grows older,
it's harder to achieve multiple orgasms. So enjoy the oral sex before
the movie. Chances are it's the only way you're going to get off.

Seems you don't enjoy cinema any more. Been hurt one time too many by a bad
film? You go to see a movie, you expect it to be honest, sincere. Then you
find out your brother saw the same film a week earlier. Or perhaps the films
starts to get too serious, demands that you rent it on video, or even buy it
on DVD, and then there's the directors cut, and the special edition, and
before you know it your knee deep in sequels. How about safe cinema, make
sure you get the full history of the film before you see it, and when you
see it wear your glasses. Or may it's just got too kinky, two films at once,
or blind folded.

That's hilarious. I often feel this way and I'd never had a reasonable
explanation.

>>Are we (you me and Mark) actually saying (well, not me, maybe you and
>Mark) that sex is like movie-going? (I know that's what you're saying but
>I'm pretending I don't know) Because if that's what you're saying (you and
>Mark) then I have to re-think my whole experience. Let's see:


>Sex *is* like movie-going, cinema, because:

>It's better in the dark
>Unwanted laughter is inappropriate
>Talking is frowned upon (but we all do it anyway in whispers)
>You come early to catch the trailers (Just try and figure out that one)
>It's more fun when you're with someone (or in my case, alone)
>Applause afterward is rare
>Standing ovations, even more rare
>Guys always want to hold hands during it
>One wants to keep putting things in one's mouth (a curious mixture of
>salty and sweet) [okay, sorry]
>It's impossible to find a seat on a Saturday night.
>You can come with a nun and not feel guilty [hoo haw]

>>[lol]

And you're out of the door before the credits have ended.

The more of you I read...the more I like. Nice quote from Ewan btw.
I love going to my local arthouse cinema and picking a movie just for it's
title...like picking a racehorse cuz I like the name.
There's definitely something to be said for the lovely feeling of seeing
something totally without prejudice or knowledge.
I love, however, the sheer anticipation factor that a really hyped movie
gives me. For example the film Apt Pupil. The story is my favorite Stephen
King short and I've waited years for a film, much like the feeling of
falling in love with someone and waiting for them to feel the same about
you. Then the previews started just giving me a taste of what the film
would be like, like those first kisses that hint at how good the sex is
going to be. Then I go see the film itself and either it's good or it's
bad, I could make another sexual allusion, but I won't....
So anticipation is sometimes better than the unexpected but the unexpected
does have it's own special kind of charm.
