LemonyShepard! Liking Spiderman does not make you a nerd!
(I heart Xmen too!)
I used to work nights ands crazy hours.. so I'd often go to movies by myself and during the day when not people were in the theatre.

Anyhoo, when I went to the first Spiderman, the part where he's trying to shoot webs and he's all like "Go web!" gave me the giggles and I just couldn't stop.. thewn slowly the second person started laughing.. then the 3rd person until all 5 people in the theatre were laughing.

The stupidest things in movies give me the giggles... there was this part in Fellowship of the Rings when the hobbits are on the hillstop againest the sunset and say something like, "We're off to see the Wizard."

Of course, this was premiere day of LOTR in NZ and it was serious business... so I sat there, trying not to laugh outloud, shaking so hard with the giggles, that later, my flatmate (4 seats away and a diehard Tolkien fan) came up to me and said, "What were you doing?!? The whole row was shaking!!".
