Comment on So say, someone lives in an English speaking country and wanna see a movie in the threaters but they struggle to understand English, how are they supposed to watch it?

  You could also find a Chinese movie with English subtitles, that’s probably a lot more common

  I kinda wanna watch Project Hail Mary tho…

    it’s fine to go to the movies alone. make it an evening just for you. buy an irresponsible amount of snacks and just get lost in it.

      I kinda have separation anxiety…

      I feel like its good family bonding time too…

        The separation anxiety doesn’t go away if you don’t separate sometimes.

        It’s not good family bonding time, sitting and not talking to each other.
        It’s better than nothing, but any activity that explicitly directs you all to interact with each other is better.

    If you’re in Philly, there may be something in the Chinatown area, or maybe someone there can give you options so your mom can enjoy a movie out with you. I hope you find a solution.

    That said, you should go see Project Hail Mary, it’s fantastic. Maybe take a friend if you don’t want to go alone, but I’ve gone to movies by myself plenty of times and I would have gone alone to this one if I hadn’t dragged my partner to opening weekend.
