If A Movie Is Your First Date

.

Primarily, the movie date is great because the responsibility of maintaining conversation is significantly reduced, and you’re free to just be near each other. You can use your peripherals to check her out and her reactions without staring. The movie itself will help to stimulate conversation after the movie is over, and give you something to do before you take her home. The worse the movie is, the better, in a way, because you can both mock it into the wee hours of the night.

Once you are at the movie, your next problem is what to buy for treats. A movie stalwart is popcorn, but is that the best choice? It has the advantage of being inexpensive, but the disadvantage is the propensity for it to stick in your teeth. Also, if your date wears dentures, then popcorn is a no-no. Consider chocolate candy like M&M's. Most women and most men like chocolate. For drinks, try to stay away from anything that is gassy or fizzy like soda pop because they will make you belch and that is not going to leave a favorable lasting impression. Most theaters will offer various types of non-carbonated beverages. One favorite is iced tea. No matter what your final decision is, remember that if you intend to also go out after the movie, then you might want to limit your eating while at the theater.

Good Movies

Even within a genre, there are good and bad choices. You are looking for something that mixes romance into the plot line, so selection is important. Hopefully you are taking her to a Cineplex type of theater that gives you a lot of on the spot choices. This means that before the date, you should have done some research into what movies are playing at the venue where you are taking her. Be prepared!

Three examples of good first date movies would have been:

1. Comedy –Adam Sandler has an amazing ability to pull off comedy with romantic interest in most of his movies.

2. Drama – Tom Hanks usually puts in a good performance with usually tasteful plot lines.

3. Romance – Anything by author Nicholas Sparks is usually a safe bet.


That being said, here are some examples of first date movies that would classify as a bad idea:

Bad Movies

The wrong choice of movie will lead to nothing but blue balls and heartache. An hour and a half of unhappiness is not recommended.  These would be examples of BAD choices:

1. Holocaust Movies – The Diary of Anne Frank would be horrible for a first date.

2. Sob Stories – Boys Don’t Cry – I made the mistake of taking a girl on a first date to this film. She just cried all the way home on the subway. Terrible. Great movie though!

3. Adventure  Movies – Most Bruce Willis adventure movies are just plain bad choices for a first date. Too much blood, guts and gore for the most part.


Stay away from Erotica or Porn! These are just too over the top for a first date and will surely be relationship ending.

Good luck! And god willing, she’ll act like Alanis Morrisette did in the theatre 
