This is for women and men to answer.The reason that I created this poll is because dinner and a movie is boring to me. I would rather do something fun and unique on a date. Maybe play paint ball or go to a haunted house.tongue

Dinner out is always a nice way to get to know someone, in my opinion. But, a movie, not so much because you sit there in the dark, no conversation, nothing....after dinner, maybe dancing or something else..just a movie to me is just not an opportunity to actually talk and interact with someone.

It's the old standard dating cliche, dinner and a movie, but I think it would only be boring if you found the guy boring. If you've met and really clicked, I think it's an awesome way to spend an evening. Time to chat, time to sit in the movie and hold hands, or even make out in the back row if you've REALLY hit it off.

I think the more time there is to chat on a date, espec the first couple of dates, the better. I do know some guys who like taking girls to movies on first dates because they don't have to talk to the girls. laugh

if it's a first date it needs to be simple, especially if it's an online Bud who I am meeting for the first time. Just a place to chat a bit to see if there's a spark or if we want to do more

I really don't wanna eat dinner in front of someone I just metdunno

Can't talk in the movies, whereas dinner gives you the chnce to get know the other person....nice restaurant, good food and wine....and if its a nice guy with good conversation - then that works for me. Time for fun thing later onthumbs up

For a first date I don't like the idea of either one...

Can be hard to talk...and messy laugh


To me dinner and a movie is for those who have been dating for awhile.

Could think of nothing more boring than a movie on a first date ...

I do remember some early (teenage) dates when going to the movies was the perfect place for a snog laugh didn't catch much of the film though.

An activity that would allow chatting in an informal atmosphere would be my preference. Afternoon tea and cake somewhere chilled ... can strech into the evening if you hit it off...

If it's a 1st date, then personally I wouldn't go for a movie. You will want to spend time with this person, get to know them better, and that isn't 'doable' at a movie.

Dinner, on the other hand, would be good, plenty of time between courses to chat etc.

a movie, followed by coffee and cake, is a nice way to spend the evening :) On the Coast here, our local cinema has a whole row of restaurants/cafes in the same strip, its lovely to come out of the movie, then call in on a whim to any one of the cafes/restaurants for an after-movie coffee/cake :)

I miss the days of the drive in theatres, and especially the dusk to dawn shows. Those were always good for a date, BYOB, head to the concession during the break for cheesy chili dogs and popcorn. popcorn

Cuddled up in the back of the truck under a couple sleeping bags.....I miss my teenage years, dating was so much more simple then. daydream

Yep, that was always fun too, even though some idiot usually ended up too drunk, then puking on someone else's car, and fight broke out, which turned into a brawl, one or three ended up in the hospital with minor injuries, etc....actually, I miss all that too.laugh

Used to love sneaking my cousin, or some mates in, under the blanket in the back of the Gemini van, hearing them giggling away under the blanket, as we drove through the gate laugh
