Of allllllllll the things that might be “weird” to do solo, going to a movie alone (where you’re not supposed to talk anyway and have something to clearly pay attention to for hours) is at the bottom of the list.
It's actually such a treat to go alone, you just have to plan where to sit so no one sits near you. It's strategic. But other than that it's super fun.
I go to dinner and a movie by myself for Thanksgiving every year. I get made fun of by my family, too, and the waitress usually thinks something is wrong and is extra nice and careful with me. If I had an S/O, I'd take them along, I just don't like being in large crowds. And going at that time of year means I usually have a theater to myself. It is a little bit weird, but who cares, it's relaxing.
No. I go to the movies about 70 times a year and I would say roughly 67 of the times I'm alone.
Nope not weird. It’s totally fine to treat yourself to time in your own company.
No, not weird at all. When I was that age, I did it all the time!
I don’t think it’s odd and I think it happens more than people realize.

No. Of course not.
No. Often when I go around a third of the people there are on their own.

I don't think it's weird at all. I used to plan my work schedules so that I could go to cheap matinees on my days off and have the place to myself.

I do it all the time. Wife talks too much during the movie. I see it alone first.
