Woopsy no one else is laughing. . .
 
So I went to see the movie Soul Surfer with my mom and sisters tonight and there were a few parts of the movie where I was giggling. Not laughing right out but the people around me could hear. The one time struck me the most because the entire theater was so quiet. Dx

And this is a serious movie it's kinda bad to be laughing. Though I really did like hte movie and it made me cry more then laugh thats for sure.

Has something like this happened to you?

Desmond 04-16-2011 10:09 PM

It's happened to me before. I think part of why that happens is because those who go and see it think "Oh this is such a serious movie, I can't show any emotion except sadness otherwise people will think I'm insensitive." Which is just so bogus since we all have emotions.

And I also think that other people felt the SAME way you did. I know I do. ^^;;

that happened when i saw the 2nd(as in attack of the clones), when anakin was saying how he slaughtered all the sand people there was this kid up front laughing his head off

Feythfull 04-16-2011 10:42 PM

Dx that was so not funny Anakin is such a dink I don't see why Padme likes him. . . So sad when he killed the younglings I would got up and slapped that kid who was laughing is he laughed at that part.

And old friend, her boyfriend, and I all went to see Ultraviolet in theaters and at the scene where the main character gets shot, the boyfriend jumped out of his seat and practically pissed his pants from the loud bang. He and his girlfriend burst out laughing, totally ruining the sad/serious part of the movie ... for the ENTIRE audience x.x

I had it a lot of times that I laughed at parts of movies where I shouldn't laugh. Original ways to die is always a good one to make me laugh

      • oh yes xD
        i've done it before and it was so serious but
        three of my friends were laughing, it was so funny to us for
        some reason. and we went with my mom and she was like wtf
        is so funny? i never figured out why it was so funny.
        D: and i don't feel bad that i laughed ... it was so bad
        but it was funny. xD

Athilea Majiri 04-17-2011 02:26 PM

I wouldn't worry about it to much. People have different ways of reacting to movies, and different senses of humors. You just saw something that was funny that someone other people didn't get. That's okay. I mean, when we went to the theater to see Hamlet my friends and I were probably over excited when they decapitated his head, but I don't care. It was fantastic.

Jurinjo 04-20-2011 06:39 PM

Hmm not that I can think of right now. I know I laugh sometimes during serious moments of death as a means to relax and actually convince myself of humor in the situation. Battlefield LA and um..what is that movie with the alien invasion and bright blue lights?

Faxing Berlin 04-20-2011 07:14 PM

When Sweeny Todd was released my friends and I went to see it, every time someone would fall and break their necks I couldn't help but laugh. It was absolutely horrid.

Fey 04-20-2011 07:26 PM

oh god, I do this allllllll the time, the more inappropriate the time to laugh the louder I seem to be. Recall in the Titanic when the guy 'pings' off the propeller? Yeah, that was me howling with laughter in the theater. Know in Tangled where Flyn and 'punzi are having their moment? Me, giggling in the chair. I really, reeeeeeeally find the 'dramatic tension' moments of most movies to be silly, and so I laugh. I've been glared at by other theater patrons, staff and friends...but my bff laughs at the same stuff I do so we often just giggle together.

Reyoki 04-20-2011 08:13 PM

Faxing, I do the same thing! I just can't help but start laughing uncontrollably when that part of the movie comes up! I think what makes it worse, though, is that I sing "A Little Priest" while I'm cooking XD If I'm lucky, sometimes I can get my brother on Todd's part.

I was watching Pirates of the Caribbean 2 once, and I couldn't help but start laughing my head off when the giant squid pulled that ship under. The guy sitting next to me gave me this horrified look and said, "How is that funny?!"

Fizzyology 04-22-2011 08:10 PM

*cough* Why...no I didn't laugh my head off when I saw the Twilight and got glares from all the insane fan girls... >.>;

Jurinjo 04-23-2011 02:01 PM

Fizzy xD
That had to be uncomfortably traumatizing though. -pats head-

Fizzyology 04-23-2011 11:51 PM

Holy hell it was!! D: lol they threw popcorn at me TT-TT I thought they were going to kill me!

Booga 05-01-2011 10:04 PM

I've done this plenty of times. It kinda happened the most when I was in school and watching movies. Heck sometimes I laugh for no reason and people are like "whats your issue?" lawl. :P

Flapjack 05-05-2011 03:49 PM

I really don't get people who laugh at morbid/death related things... seems like being sadistic for the heck of it. unpopular opinion I guess.

Quiet Man Cometh 05-07-2011 02:24 AM

Everybody laughs at the propeller guy, Fey. I haven't even seen the movie and I still know about him. He even made a cameo in the song Billy Crystal wrote for the Academy Awards that he hosted that year ;).

I'm usually one of those people that doesn't laugh at the funny parts, and people then stare at me, "why aren't you laughing?" I have had a go as some horrow movies though, the ones that try so hard to be scary and end up being either rediculous, or...let's just stick with rediculous. B-grade horror movies (slashers in particular) don't really count though. My sister and I play little games, pointing out what various unnecessary items (like 6 foot long sharped edged screws) are going to kill people and it what order people will die, Great fun, as long as the movie is appropriate for it.

Not sure what's to "get" about it, but then, thinking about it I'm not sure I could explain why Jason X can be funny but Hostel I refuse to watch. Maybe it's the unbelievability of it all.

Ashurato 05-07-2011 02:27 AM

Horror movies. I find most of them hilarious and often get dirty looks from others I watch them with (especially if a couple of them are practically terrified to tears).

Demonskid 05-07-2011 02:31 AM

xD Horror Movies! I tend to scare people when we watch movies like Ju-On and stuff. =w= they hate me for it

Ashurato 05-07-2011 02:32 AM

People who watch horror movies for the sake of being scared are masochists.

Demonskid 05-07-2011 02:35 AM

xD I like the story lines and suspense but I don't like watching them alone O~O,

Ashurato 05-07-2011 02:36 AM

*toothy smile* I'll watch them with you, DK.

Demonskid 05-07-2011 02:39 AM

OwO Yay!

Speaking of scary stuff.. Chi got me to watch people playing a game called "Amnesia: The Dark Descent"

It's SCARY but funny if you watch Toby person

Quiet Man Cometh 05-07-2011 02:43 AM

Yeah. I don't like being disturbed when it comes to horror movies, hence I refuse to watch certain films that seem to glorify violence and torture. I"m a slasher fan, with a penchant for shark films. Jaws is a great movie, one of my favourites. There isn't actually lot of visible gore at all, as opposed to Piranha! (exclamation mark included in the title I believe) Now that in an exercise in gratuitus campy violence!. It even has a cameo by Richard Dreyfuss. :)

Demonskid 05-07-2011 02:51 AM

The gore depends.. I didn't like ghost ship.. I don't like ships (haunted, sunken, in video games, or in life) they creep me out. and Ghost ship just made that fear worst. xp


Oh! Each time I leave my room I have this strange habit of scaring the false teeth out of my mom. xD I walk quietly (even with chains on my pants) and she doesn't hear my door shut or my chains and jumps when I say hello or tap her on the shoulder xD

Quiet Man Cometh 05-07-2011 03:04 AM

Heh. I have that habit too, though I don't wear chains. My friend used to called it "poofing." He turns around and there I am: I "poofed."

I liked Ghost Ship, or at least enough to flick to it when it's on TV, but then, I do like ships. :), I grew up on an island so I had better be okay with ships or it was no visiting relatives for me. Little boats conern me more than big boats though. Easier to tip.

Demonskid 05-07-2011 03:08 AM

Mom hates it xD and I always have to tell her "My door and my chains makes plenty of noise.. not my fault you refuse to wear your hearing aid" xD

Fey 05-07-2011 08:12 PM

awwwwwwww, I'm just like everyone else at my amusement at propeller guy? that makes me sad :( But that's okay, I know I'm a bit unique cause I laugh when others cry, stare when others laugh and AVOID scary movies like they're going to eat my eyes...oh...wait...I'm sure that's in some of 'em.

Oh, and I like bad action movies, so see, I are a special snowflake!

Sarah 05-18-2011 03:00 PM

yeah lol..like that one part you laugh at that nobody else laughs at. I'm just weird like that, i guess.
