Ugh...took in a matinee of The Strangers: Prey At Night (surprisingly good, recommended for slasher fans 
), and despite it being a 1:00 PM showing on a Wednesday (the day after a major blizzard, no less), I got one of those audiences, the stereotypical kind that makes seeing more horror movies in a theater a skin-crawling chore. Laughing at EVERYTHING (especially gruesome scenes that weren't remotely humorous), the obligatory cries of "Don't go in there!" and cheering moronically at the most violent bits...pretty much ruined a really solid movie for me. 
More proof, if any was needed, that horror movies should be watched alone, at home, with the lights turned off and the phone unplugged.

But I don't go to the movies that often because it is ssssooooooooo hard to stop myself sometimes.
and near the end of Titanic when Rose says 'I'll never let you go' as she is letting Jack fall to the bottom of the ocean. My sister now refuses to watch either of these with me even though she loves both. There are probably so many more times, but I can't remember them all.
