I'm disappointed in The Onion, it seems way more cutting to point out how ludicrous it is that watching a giant glowing rectangle in silence for two hours is considered a social outing.

Actually when you think about it, the article would still be better even with that change. Watching a giant glowing rectangle in silence for two hours is considered a social outing and he's still by himself.

I thought that was the joke, the guys not really that pathetic, its a summation of everything that makes people feel weird about going to the movie alone. You#re supposed to have Tatum Girlparts reaction. Just pointing out "hey, going to the movies isn't really that weird at all" isnt nearly as cutting or funny.
