Why I Prefer to Watch Movies on my Own/Decision Making Inability

Not that I don't enjoy watching some movies with friends. But there are some movies where you just want to watch them alone. Partly because you don't want to annoy anyone else by talking but also party because you don't want anyone else to talk during the movie. Plus if you have a large number of people who would like to watch a movie, deciding what movie it is gets even harder. Some don't like the content, some find it boring, others don't want to watch it because other viewers and critics gave it a poor rating or they don't think it'll be appropriate to the group.

At times not being able to watch a certain movie for one of the above reasons is irritating. Especially irritating is when you find out that you are the only one who hasn't seen it because when you do get together with others it is the only time you can watch a movie. So you end up watching a movie you didn't really have your heart set on because the collective wanted to watch a movie that conflicted with your idea and in order to even get a movie you'd have to choose a movie that remotely satisfied everyone's preferences.

This probably stems from the fact that sometimes a group of friends gather together to do something but have nothing planned. When someone suggests that they do something after they have all gathered, they are asked what they'd like to do (in other words suggest something to do and break the boredom). If and when they do suggest something it has to be considered for the entire group so the suggestor won't seem selfish in his suggestion.
In such a way progress is seldomly made when trying to satisfy the collective and compounded even moreso by each additional group member; the larger the collective, the harder the decision.
When in a group of one, it is much more easier to handle. Only one to satisfy and only one to blame if there is a faulty decision. Unity is hardly an issue and politics cannot and will not play with one. In fact, the pendulum can swing even further to the other side; one may end up making even more than one decision successively, helping to correct bad decisions or possibly making more worse decisions. In either case, one seems favourable for some individual activities. As for group activities with more than one required, it only seemse best if those involved are actually interested in the activity. Otherwise you've got a foot of toes that don't want to wear the same sock, or the same shoe, or even cut their nails at the same time. How's that for a poor metaphor?
