    the one who takes forever to put on my jacket and not fall over myself trying to get out of the row of seats.. :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,554 ✭✭✭herobear


    and the 4 types are what ? :confused:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 17,208 ✭✭✭✭aidan_walsh


    What are the four types? Because I can just start specifying my own if you like?

    But me, I generally just get up and walk out, unless the music in the end titles is good enough to warrent staying another five minutes.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,909 ✭✭✭✭Wertz


    The drunk one still looking for his popcorn under the seat...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,339 ✭✭✭✭tman


    i'd usually leave the cinema and go home... cinema seats make crap beds tbh

    /edit
    was the poll there originally?

    hahaha, you all posted before I finished posting the thread, weird!
    there is a poll there now ;)

    I am the one who likes to listen to the musical score (if it is worth listening to) or running to the loo if I got the "big drink" hehe


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,894 ✭✭✭Chinafoot


    i generally stay to see the credits....especially when theres an actor whose name has been bugging me throughout the entire film....also ya never know when there might be some outtakes at the end.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,375 ✭✭✭DoesNotCompute


    Stay to watch the outtakes/credits/ listen to the music, usually


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,554 ✭✭✭herobear


    one time i went to see freeze frame and harry potter 3 straight after, it was quite a humid day so i was drinking a hella lots of water, and i didnt need to go after freeze frame, but in the middle of harry potter3 i startede really needing to go and getting cramps and stuff, it was horrible but i wouldnt leave the seat because i was enjoying the movie too much, i had to waddle to the toilet at the end, was in so much pain!

    any other times, im there either ridiculiously early eating my chicken baguette from spar
    or
    ridiculiously late, continously tripping over the stairs, being pratically blind when theres no lights on in the auditorium


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,767 ✭✭✭Hugh Hefner


    sit and watch the credits enjoying the Music until the lights come on
    I'm trying to take more control of my liquid in take during films after having to leave quickly during I <Heart> Huckabees. If I didn't I'd seriously damage myself and my sexual performance (according to Jim Carrey in Liar Liar) if I kept having to hold it in whenever I go to the cinema.

    I don't rush to leave my seat but I don't wait for credit's either. I take my time putting on my coat and picking up my stuff.

    Usually I take my time, if I liked the Score in hte film i'd wait to see who scored it, and if i liked the cinematography i'd like to see his name too.

    I also dump any remaining popcorn I have all over the floor, and mush it into the ground, so its a **** to clean!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,488 ✭✭✭SantaHoe


    sit and watch the credits enjoying the Music until the lights come on
    For me it comes down to two choices:
    A). Leave right after the credits start rolling and stand in the human traffic jam for 5 minutes, shuffling along inch by inch, squashed like cattle... until bursting out into the lobby all dizzy and disoriented.

    B). Spending an additional 3 or 4 minutes sitting where I've already been sitting for the previous 2 hours, gather my thoughts and get my shít together for whatever tasks are ahead of me... scratch my arse a bit, then walk out at my own pace, safe in the knowledge that I don't need to que with the riff-raff or be pressed up against someones arse as everyone moshes their way out in the futile notion of getting out before everyone else.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 775 ✭✭✭Evilution


    Wait it out, man. Enjoy the credits, sometimes you get some extra stuff after or during them.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 28,128 ✭✭✭✭Mossy Monk


    Rush out to the Loo, too much to drink!
    option 1 for me :(

    i have missed many funny moments during/after the credits as a result :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 21,296 ✭✭✭✭gimmick


    sit and watch the credits enjoying the Music until the lights come on
    A combination between option C and D. Ill never rush out, as i hate queueing with a passion. Im waaay to impatient.

    Relax, let life move before you.

    fs, people like you make me sick. easy to know you dont have to work for your money.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,197 ✭✭✭Spalk0


    I generally go to beat the crowd or to rush to the bathroom!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,093 ✭✭✭woosaysdan


    i usually stay till the lights come on and watch the credits or outtakes if any!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,317 ✭✭✭Chalk


    Rush out to the Loo, too much to drink!
    Im ususally puting the empty beer cans into my bag and then leaving quickly in case any staff thinks im a trouble maker and tries to bar me...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,088 ✭✭✭fjon


    Sit and wait for the crowd to rush by
    I would generally go with my friends, and if they don't want to stay to watch the credits, there's no chance I will. I preusme this would be the same for everyone? If you go with other people you;re not going to stay while your friends have fecked off?

    Stay for the credits, unless im absolutly dyin to drain my bladder, but if i really enjoyed the film ill stay for the credits regardless


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,089 ✭✭✭D!ve^Bomb!


    Rush out to the Loo, too much to drink!
    mostly leave as fast as possible,, but the odd time i have stayed to watch creds/out takes:)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,397 ✭✭✭✭azezil


    sit and watch the credits enjoying the Music until the lights come on
    where's the option to say "sit awkwardly next to your date debating wheater or not to try for a kiss"

    ;)

    ah going on first / second dates to the cinema... worst idea EVER! heh :p


  • Moderators, Education Moderators Posts: 9,654 Mod ✭✭✭✭mayordenis


    im the cynical guy whos probably complaining while possibly doing any of the 4 types as aforementioned


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,175 ✭✭✭angeldelight


    Depends, if I go with friends we tend to leave straight away, if it's with a guy I don't mind waiting ;)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 915 ✭✭✭ArthurDent


    There's a fifth option if you're my 4 year old son, when the credits come on, you rush down to the screen and dance like a nutter till the lights come on. :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 169 ✭✭Gossip_girl


    Rush out to the Loo, too much to drink!
    I know just what your talking about azezil. ;) Personnaly it depends on if I liked the movie or not. If not I'll probably just leg it, if I liked it I'll watch the credits/ listen to the music.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 669 ✭✭✭Photi


    Usually stay for the credits, unless it's a piss poor film in which case I'll be long gone before th end anyway


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,645 ✭✭✭Shrimp


    sit and watch the credits enjoying the Music until the lights come on
    one time, for some unknown reason, i was hangin with my friends at the bottom of the cinema, near the screen. I decided to walk behind the screen, some crazy **** behind there, everything inverted. All the credits are messed up and it's lioke the credits for some eastern european film, they way they look...

    I said I rush to the loo(depending if I can take a break and leave for 3 mins) but I usually end up waiting for my mates to come out of the loo!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,010 ✭✭✭littleninja


    sit and watch the credits enjoying the Music until the lights come on
    I'd tend to be either C or D too, usually D though, that way you don't end up standing waiting around (plus I can finish off any popcorn that's left in the tub thing before I go).


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 783 ✭✭✭Skellington


    sit and watch the credits enjoying the Music until the lights come on
    i wait most of the time, partly cos i'm lazy, partly cos i hate crowds.

    Oh to be 4 again! I'd love to do that!! :D

    I'd usually wait for outtakes or to listen to the music.. Or, there is usually a song I've heard in the film but can't tell the name or artist and I have to wait til the very very VERY end of the credits where the titles / artists are mentioned.. otherwise I won't sleep that night wondering..... :confused:

    I selected all four cos...well I just felt like it tbh.

    It depends on what the film was like, tbh! If it was ****e, I'd wanna be outta there fairly nippy. If it was good (ala team america), I'd stay for a bit (which I did).

    Its all relative, as the great man said...

    Usually sit and watch credits and get ready to leave. Unless when the film is woeful, whereby, I leave ASAP.

    It depends on consumption of beverages, but generally I'll leave just after the credits roll ..... that or atari jaguar.


  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 5,945 ✭✭✭BEAT


    Sit and wait for the crowd to rush by
    I find it funny that more people voted that they sit and wait for people to go by,
    when you are at the cinema...how many people do you usually see wating until everyone has gone by...
    I dont usually see more than 10-15 people sitting till the theater has cleared.
    It is always everyone up at once and waiting in line for everyone to get out with those few people who sit and wait patiently.

    weird ;)
