Where did you go? The only time I have heard applause at a movie is when the credits roll.

- kqr 9y agoYeah, but why? "Good job, projector. You shine ever so brightly among us. and you never missed the screen once during the whole movie!" Or perhaps the crowd applaud themselves for successfully going to the movies again. The possibilities are endless.
- Cyph0n 9y agoOr maybe the audience enjoyed the movie?

- khedoros1 9y agoA social urge to show appreciation, even when the intended recipients couldn't ever possibly hear it. I've mostly seen it in cases where excitement was already high, like the first night of a highly-anticipated movie, where something exceptionally amusing just happened. People sometimes express emotion in ways that don't really make sense.
- allenu 9y agoI don't think it's any different from watching a sporting event and screaming and shouting when the team scores a goal. Even if you're all alone, you want to show appreciation.
- jjeaff 9y agoHave you ever cried because of a movie? If so, why?
- kqr 9y agoI'd argue crying is a much more primal respons than the somewhat arbitrary slap your open palms together to create a noise response.
