Personally, because I am an adult at least in the legal sense, I already don't care enough about most animated movies to want to spend AMC money on seeing one. I understand that I'm in the minority in that regard, and that's fine; I'm not here to argue that point. To each their own, you immature sons of bitches.
However, if you are invested in the Pixar universe so much that you can't wait to watch their latest movie until you're home for Christmas and your 7-year-old niece gets it on Blu-ray as a gift, then at least have the decency to not go see it alone.

Stranger danger!
Don't get me wrong -- going to the movies alone is great! Way less judgment over the pint of vodka you smuggled in to mix with your $8 soda when you go alone. It's fantastic. But none of that, especially the part about smuggling in alcohol, applies to seeing a movie with a room full of kids.
For one thing, when's the last time you went to an adult movie and weren't completely annoyed when someone brought a kid? When you walk in that theater as an adult, you become that annoyance to untold numbers of moms who can't help but wonder just what the fuck you're doing there by yourself. That's true if you're a male, at least. I know we're supposed to be equals and all, but sorry, I feel like dudes are just inherently better at being creepy pedophiles than women are, and everyone goddamn knows it.
