What is/are your movie OCD(s)?
I will start to put a few of mine:
- I like to go to movie theatre by myself - I don't like to go to movie theatre on any opening weekend because I don't like crowds - I like to sit at the second last row (or last row) in the theatre because I believe that spot receives the most optimized sound quality - I like to re-watch the previous episode to prepare for a sequel - I am planning to re-watch BvS before Wonder Woman for example - I like to wait until the credit ends (if possible) I hope I am not the only one who has this. :| |
Re: What is/are your movie OCD(s)?
I always have to watch a movie that's on one of the Movie Forums lists.

Re: What is/are your movie OCD(s)?
-I prefer to sit in the premier seats at the cinema, the extra leg room enhances the experience (especially the 3rd act)
-People using their phones in the cinema makes me think of Edward Norton beating the crap out of Jared Leto in fight club -Don't talk to me during the film unless it's important (or unless I've already seen it) There's no after credits scene in Wonder Woman FYI |
Re: What is/are your movie OCD(s)?
Only movie OCD I have is always getting a seat by the aisle. Im 6'5" and need the leg room.

No OCD, but some die hard habits are having one hand down my pants, a cup of tea next to me, some snacks, and when I pause, I do so at an exact moment, after just enough of a space after a line of dialog, then, as I walk towards the bathroom, I verbally rate my technique on the timing of my pausing.

I cant comment on the hands down pants but cup of tea or wine, pausing at just the right moment, and I will add lights out, volume up unless it's one of those whispery dialogue followed by booming score movies, sunglasses if the colour grading is OTT, and a doona to snuggle under. |
Re: What is/are your movie OCD(s)?
Lights off is probably my biggest one. I'm really not a fan of watching movies when it's not dark. I feel like it takes me out of the movie or at least I'm not as immersed.
Gotta watch movies in my tv too. I struggle to watch anything on mobile, tablet, computer or the likes. Quality is important to me. I'm taking out of the movie if it's DVD quality or below. Pixelated and awful colors completely ruins it for me. |

Re: What is/are your movie OCD(s)?
When I used to go to the theater, one friend was into always sitting in the last row - the idea was that no one could sit behind you or kick the back of your chair.
Lights off - when I go for a walk at night I see all these houses with people watching TV under a glaring overhead fluorescent light. I don't get it - not just a lamp but a glarey white light coming down from above that is turning the TV screen opaque. I'm very particular about lighting. At a couple jobs I had, I'd come in extra early so I could stand on my desk and unscrew the fluorescent light bulbs above my desk. |
Re: What is/are your movie OCD(s)?
These are more like pet peeves:
Cell phones on during the movie (people texting and surfing the net....why the f*** did you buy the ticket to begin with??) The person you're with talking non-stop or asking you question after question about the movie (What did he/she say? What happened? What does that mean?...STFU already!!) |
OCDs in a movie (theater)
*edit* I typed this laughing. That doesn't diminish how sad I am reading it. lol? |

Another OCD:
I like to say "Shut the F up" "Turn your Fing phone off" while watching a movie for anger release. |
