Colin was well worth a matinee viewing, and don't leave before the end of the credits.
Or translate that into rental-speak.
Buffy: He ran away, right? Giles: Sort of, more. turned and swept out majestically, I suppose. Said I didn't concern him. Buffy: So a mythic triumph over a completely indifferent foe? Giles: Well, I'm not dead or unconscious, so I say bravo for me.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
I was all set to see Elektra for free, but the screening's in the middle of the day.
Diamond shoes a little too tight?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Diamond shoes a little too tight?
And this champagne has totally gone flat. My life is agony.

Apart from sports, "my secret favorite thing on earth is ketchup. I will put ketchup on anything. But it has to be Heinz." - my husband, Michael Vartan
It's funny how Colin's persona often overshadows the fact that he really is an excellent actor.
I haven't been to the movies in forever. I want to go. I have plans to see a double feature of In Good Company and Elektra with my best friend when I get back to LA, but she has a tendency to flake. Which kind of bites. I wish my mom was feeling up to a movie, but the weather is making her feel like never leaving the house, ever. Which is understandable, really. And yet... I want to go see a movie.

"It's got to be the hair, Cotton. It's beautiful! Feathered and lethal. You just don't see it nowadays." Pepper Brooks - Dodgeball
Go by yourself - it is the sign of a self-confident person that he or she can attend a movie by his/herself.
I've done it many times and never felt like a loser. At all.

I adore going to the movies by myself. I can slouch down in my seat and cackle to myself at obscure bits only I think are funny or sigh foolishly without anyone asking why.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
Going to the movies with friends is fun, but I love to go alone too, and I find I usually get more out of a movie if I see it by myself.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I love seeing cheesy movies by myself, because I can just love them and not worry if the other person thinks they suck.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
I used to go to movies by myself all the time. Now I have limited time and cash for movies and limited time to hang with friends, so I combine the two a lot more. But I sometimes feel I can lose myself in a movie more effectively when I'm by myself than when I'm sitting next to Buddy A or Friend B. In the latter cases there's always a little part of me aware of their reactions to the movie.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Or you could go with me, Alibelle.
