To be slightly annoyed that DH is watching Pitch Black...

Knowing that I hate it?
I've seen it before & really didn't like it, but he's just put it on without even asking me if I want to watch it. He knows I don't like it as he commented 'oh look, you're favourite' as he put it on.

Well...he's nice.
I'd just go and watch i player upstairs.

CajaDeLaMemoria · 29/06/2013 21:29

Talk through it.

And loudly comment on any plot errors, mistakes, what's about yo happen...

It's annoying even if you've seen the film.

Maybe he REALLY wants to see it?? My husband loves that film The Shining - I hate it as it is so dull, long and boring, but when it is showing on TV I am happy to have it on as he likes it.

My husband is watching Heat - he loves it, once was enough for me Smile . I'm just in, so he has first dibs Smile

What drunkendiva said. I've watched it loads mainly on slow frame just to drool over Vin D's fit behind. You know the bit when he is pulling the cells.

It could be worse OP, it could be Pitch Black 2, that really does deserve the title 'Worst Film Ever Made', and I found the first one vaguely entertaining!

ChameleonCircuit · 29/06/2013 22:03

This might be suitably annoying to him:

I have seen this a couple of times and I am yet to understand whats going on but Vin Diesel makes it better. I love him

gamerchick · 29/06/2013 22:09

Yeah it is a pretty wank film. Hannibal is on the other side.. Much better.

Both of the Pitch Black movies are awesome! And being able to gawp at Vin Diesel's sublime body would make it worth watching anyway! So YABvvvvvU!

Kafri · 29/06/2013 23:57

Completely irrelevant but my very first date was going to the cinema to see pitch black as a teen - oh those carefree days!!! not at all my cup of yea but soooo wanted to go put with the lad

MrsHelsBels74 · 30/06/2013 00:01

Ok so Vin Diesel aside...AIBU to be annoyed DH put a film I hate on without even asking if it was ok to watch it?

Admire Vin, laugh at the plot. Sorted Grin

GiveItYourBestShot · 30/06/2013 00:03

Do you hate it because it's crap, or because you find it upsetting?

SplitHeadGirl · 30/06/2013 00:06

MrsHels...I already said that YES, you are being unreasonable!!! If he wants to see it, just do something else!! Knit, phone a mate, go on the internet, clean a bathroom....Or how about you sit and watch it with him??? Like I do with The Shining, even though I hate it??

Stop whingeing about a movie, really!!!

MrsHelsBels74 · 30/06/2013 00:06

I'm a real wuss when it comes to blood & guts & hated the bit where the woman gets ripped in half & carried off still screaming.

GiveItYourBestShot · 30/06/2013 00:09

Then I vote YANBU ... not fair if you would have to leave the room.

MrsHelsBels74 · 30/06/2013 00:09

I'm not really whinging about it, was just trying to make the point that the movie is immaterial really. plus I don't want to perve over VD

If it was one of his favourites that would be different but he just watched it because there was nothing better on.

Are you trapped in a single room?
Go and do something else. It's called compromising.
It could be worse, I'm in the same room as Pokemon 4Ever.

GiveItYourBestShot · 30/06/2013 00:10

Is Vin Diesel in that? Wink

MrsHelsBels74 · 30/06/2013 00:15

Meh, it's finished now anyway. Thinking about it, this isn't the first time he'd shown a little thoughtlessness like this & I think it's the cumulative effect which has pissed me off a little.
Anyway he can watch what he likes now, I'm going to bed Grin
