What would u say to someone who says watching movie is a waste of time

Now I do agree that watching CRAPPY movies is indeed waste of time. But what about in general?

Maybe, but my time is mine to waste.

I'd tell them that art can enrich life.

Some people are doers and some are watchers. I've always done both with a leaning towards watching, but my stroke has left me as a definite watcher.

I hate when people say that. Technically anything can be a waste of time, but movies can be so artistic, so full of meaning, made with such love and labor that when someone says they're "just a waste of time"... I feel insulted.

I wouldn't waste my time saying anything to them.

I'd say conceiving them looks to have been one, too.

I say quiet mom or we'll put you in the home.

Honestly, I would just calmly ask them why they felt that way. Then maybe I'd recommend some good movies that they might enjoy.

ME TOO!!!

What if you pick your all time favorite and show to them, and they fell asleep during the movie?

That wouldn't bug me, I'd just buy them a triple shot latte and tell to keep their eyes open.

I would say....it puts the DVD in the player or else it gets the hose again.


....my dad use to say this. Banned us from tv and movies..hence why I love them so much. Yet he used to listen to hours and hours of music and radio. What’s the difference, both leisure activities, both art.

Anyway...if I did talk to him I’d give him the hose.

why on earth would I invite a stranger to fall aasleep on the lounge *scratches head

I would just calmly punch them in the face,push them over the deck and slowly close the door to return to enjoy whatever I felt like

It's my time. I will waste it the way I want. I work from homes sometime. I keep the TV on with some movie running on low volume. Coz I need the rumbling sound of the office to concentrate on work!

It's like that scene in Seinfeld where Jerry and George are discussing the shortness of life and trying to make the most of it and George is like "Well, is this a waste of time too? Can't we have coffee anymore either?!"

My response would be to tell that person that they haven't seen the right movies.

OP: "You're a waste of my time"

Or do this:
