Just slowly transferring my old posts over, nothing new or special sorry

Why the hell is it that only otaku’s seem to laugh during movies at the cinema?
I mean seriously, when ever I go to the movies I seem to be the only person in the cinema laughing, unless its an anime. And I don’t think its because the movies isn’t that funny, when you get out, every one goes on about how funny it was, which leaves me standing there stunned, thinking HELLO! I doubt you even smiled during film. It’s like everyone is so self conscious that their afraid to laugh out loud these days, but the room is completely dark its not like anyone will really know who was laughing anyway. I’m not saying this because I’m conscious of my own laugh, but I guess I feel really sorry for the director. I mean they go to all this effort to make an enjoyable film, and people care more about what total strangers in a dark room think about them, then really appreciating the film for what it is.

But at the same time I haven’t really found this to apply to adult anime, when I’ve seen these at the cinema the audience really does laugh at the funny parts, I’m probably caring about this way too much, but hey. It got me thinking are anime fans at that point where they’re so comfortable with themselves that they don’t care what strangers think, or they don’t give a stuff because they are simply there to see a cool film, and don’t think about such pathetic matters. Or is it that anime directors are just that good that absolutely no one can resist the temptation to laugh
