It is quality time together.
That's an oxymoron in my house. Wife wants to "watch movies together", only to immediately surf her laptop / online shopping.

My solution was to buy bluetooth headphones.
Which she won't allow me to use b/c she "likes the sound of the TV !"

mine's usually pretty good in that regard, while I'm the one w/ the micro-bladder who'll almost always need to break at least once, if not twice, to take a quick leak... and then if I'm out for that, I might as well freshen up my drink while I'm at it (but at least I'll offer to grab her anything too).

However, there's about a 50/50 chance she'll be asleep by then, in which case it no longer matters what I do ~ whether I decide it's worth watching through to the end, or switching to a ballgame or whatever else. The worst is when it's a film I've gotten into, but then she starts snoring so I gotta turn it up obnoxiously loud to drown out her noise. Or sometimes it'll devolve kinda like a drinking game, but w/ minor violence instead; i.e., whenever someone gets punched/kicked, etc in the movie, I'll give her a shove to break up the snoring.

Ahhhh, wedded bliss!
