Vent: My neighborhood watch group ruined movie night for me forever
Last month our block hosted a park screening of 'The Room' for the bad movie club. The HOA president stood up during the spoon scene and started lecturing everyone about proper utensil usage at cookouts. Like dude, that's the point, the movie is already ridiculous. I brought my own speaker but some guy kept yelling about plot holes in a Tommy Wiseau film. Now I just watch these gems alone in my basement with the volume turned down. Anyone else have a group that takes bad movies way too seriously?

Two years ago at our screening of 'The Apple' (1980), some guy brought a clipboard and was timing how long each musical number lasted. He kept muttering "this is supposed to be ironic" every time someone laughed at the costumes. I invited him over for a proper bad movie night once, just me and him. He spent the whole time explaining why the acting in 'The Room' is technically worse than in 'Troll 2'. People like that can turn ANYTHING into a lecture.

grant.felix those people are the only ones keeping movie nights from turning into pure chaos, gotta respect the clipboard crew @roberts95.

Wait @grant.felix, are you telling me that guy actually used a clipboard to time musical numbers at a screening of 'The Apple'? That's next level, man. I once tried hosting a bad movie night and ended up explaining the entire plot of 'Sharknado 3' to my cat because nobody else showed up.
