I know, this sounds like my half of my friends and my parents. I always have to tell everybody to SHUT THE HELL UP AND WATCH THE DAMN MOVIE!!!!!!!

If you spend that much time defending yourself against normal people you don’t even know, then you should seriously consider counseling.

I’d like to add here that I don’t do this in GOOD films – only bad ones that tend to be on TV on Sunday afternoons.

I am so glad I’m not the only one who’s hobby it is to go ‘OMG, WHO’S THAT! WHAT WERE THEY IN? THEY WERE IN SOMETHING!’ and then, if I can’t think of it, look it up on IMDB. Then make whoever I’m with guess by giving them crap clues. Even though they invariably don’t give a damn.

I don’t limit that to films though – TV programmes, adverts, music videos…

And just days ago, I saw ‘My Favourite Martian’(I think?) on channel 5. Which features that guy who plays the professor in Back to the Future, and a talking space suit. And what do I criticise? The fact that I highly doubt you could get a fingerprint from a wet, used cigarette.

Needless to say, I was told to shut up.

Apart from the one about eating popcorn, these are all things that I do after the movie, not during.

If it were a joke that was laughable, I’d laugh. In fact, I laugh at a lot of things and don’t even leave a comment about it, or I do and move on with my life. Or, I think something isn’t very funny and still don’t leave a comment about it, because it’s not worth my time. The only reason I tried to do something about this in particular was because I saw other posters on this site who didn’t enjoy the hijacking of their names either. Obviously, my efforts didn’t work, so whatever. I don’t care. I won’t stop posting under my chosen screenname, and you probably won’t stop hijacking other people’s screennames. And that just means that people will continue to think you’re an a**hole who has no life. Congratulations.

You forgot the “making out with your girlfriend and not watching the movie” section

The poor sap making this graph is probably a hopelessly confused blond female. Time spent trying to figure out the plot? And then the part about figuring out what other movies the main character’s actor starred in? That reeks of female tendencies. I hate it when women ask me, “oh, see that actor… I know he played in something else recently!”… “do you know?”. GRRRR! Shudddup and let me watch!

I disagree with your agreement to my tr069’s disagreement towards my thoughts on this graph. I found it tedious and was not able to empathize with it.

I’m glad someone else noticed the lack of watching/enjoying the movie. Honestly, why would anyone even go to movies if this were the case?

When I watch a movie I also usually actually watch the movie. At home I make use of this incredible new technology called the “pause” button. But then again, I do play World of Warcraft so what do I know anyway.

For me, the yellow portion would be trying to figure out what other movies the main actors have played in before. I usually just watch the movie, unless I think it’s stupid. Then I spend most of the time criticizing it. But I don’t usually go to the movie theater either.

By: Devylan

Devylan — Thu, 30 Jul 2009 14:37:18 +0000

Oh, and what’s really pathetic is that this person needs attention so much that they actually had to explain the name to someone who doesn’t even know the context of the situation. That’s rich.

I really annoy my son by constantly asking “now what was he/she in?”

And the fun is in the guessing and not on looking up the answer on IMDb. Some people on here forgot to take their personality pills today!

Actually, I too was going to point out the ability to access the web would help in IDing an actor and his/her roles–though I’m just saying it casually, and not trying to be a jerk about it like “thisgraphsucks”. I do it sometimes while watching a DVD or TV show and I just can’t make my brain remember where I saw someone before (though I at least make the attempt before resorting to the web). And with the increasing number of web-connected mobile devices, it’s not inconceivable that someone might do the same while watching at a theater.

But, y’know, just saying…making conversation and all. Not being an *ss.

Wow lighten up, its just a bit of fun. Its graphjam, don’t take it so seriously. Oh, and if you imdb every movie your about to see just to find out what the main actor has been in before, then you have too much time on your hands.

why would you need to get up during the movie to answer your phone? are you that dependent on it?

aside from needing to use the bathroom during a very long movie, i have not had any of these issues.

then again, i’m not retarded…
