Ever watched a movie and gotten so into it that it take time to come back your o!
Question: Well it happens to me.. I go to the movies, and come out and I feel nervous around who I'm with, and it takes me a second to snap back into reality. It feels really weird.
Anyone else feel that way.. I'm most likely weird I know.. I really am curious to know if this happens to other people too.

Yes, I just finished watching "Insomnia" with Al Pacino. He becomes so sleep deprived, mentally drained and enraged that an evil man is still alive that I felt as worn as he did as well as angry that this murderer was still free...then the credits came. I totally forgot I was watching a movie. I walked around angry and exhausted for 10 minutes afterward.
Actually yeah a few times
Yes it happened to me while watching The Thorn-birds and during Shogun as well..........
Waaaaaay back when, "2001: A Space Odyssey" (1968) routinely did this to audiences. I saw it five times, and the response was always the same: rather a dazed look and relative silence, as if people didn't dare speak out loud. Conversation generally began somewhere during the walk back to the car.
Many years later, I experienced a bit of that experience with "Blade Runner" (1982), which draws you into its world when seen on the "silver screen". I went back to that one, too, many times.
One that kept me in a bemused daze practically all of the time was "Romeo & Juliet" (1968), which I ended up seeing at least 30 times between its original release and the revival several years later. (Yes, there was that much demand!) In between, I listened to the soundtracks to keep me in the medieval mood.
Films I've seen on movie channels that deeply affected me and left me with lingering thoughts long after I saw them include:
Donnie Darko
Requiem for a Dream
Taxi Driver (when I originally saw it~stunning!)
I agree that Thornbirds is mesmerizing. I've seen it a number of times, and it remains a powerful experience. It left me craving another miniseries to immerse myself in!
A Beautiful Mind.... but it was really in the middle of the movie
Yeah, all of the the Harry Potters, The Matrix, etc.
