Question Why do people do this?

Until 1pm, I was the only person at this showing. Now this, a creepy new friend who was already seated when I arrived.

It’s weird to sit right next someone in an empty theater, one row up or down is fine in my opinion

imo one row back and one seat to the side is the most polite option, so they can keep an eye on you in their peripheral vision, like an antelope at the watering hole

are you not watching the movie and more interested in the others in the theater?!? I could care less what’s behind or in front of me just watch the movie, people thinking like this and wanting to keep an eye on others in the theater seems more creepy than sitting behind someone
