alisson23 Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 Really I go alone all the time. I'd go with you if I lived near New York. I go alone too but on Monday, this is sad. :'( i just went to the movie theater alone once in a lifetime, had 5 people in session, film gravity. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This film alone is why I think Verbinski is a genius. Forget PoTC, The Ring all about direction. After I saw the Ring, for about a week I couldn't have my back to the TV.

baumer Posted May 17, 2014 Author Share Posted May 17, 2014 This is the bit that really shit me up, i didn't think she was going to actually come out of the tv! I saw this with a black friend. And I'm not making this up, he actually got up and left during this part. He was truly terrified. When she came out of the TV, he got up and turned to me and said, "Unh-uh, fuck that shit." And he turned around and left. I only mention that he was black because it just seems that black people can be much more animated and expressive when watching some movies. Scary Movie made fun of it, but there's an element of truth to it. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deathlife Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 I'm still torn.The next showing of this movie is at the same time as the English FA cup final (foreign fans that watch soccer will get this) and the Spanish League soccer season finale.I don't know what to pick.

alisson23 Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 I remember I saw The Ring once by myself. It was near the end of its run. I was the only person in the theater and even though I'd seen it twice already, I was still kind of frightened in the theater alone. I'll never forget that experience. Samara scares the shit out of me to this day. Messes me up every time. I crapped myself with fear 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
