Right, because no Eurofag has ever cheered, or yell instructions at the tv while football is on as if the players can fucking hear them.

>>676532375
It's a communal thing, it's not for the film makers, actors or characters it's for us the viewers. It's something we contribute in together, it's a way of sharing a bond of agreement with strangers.

I mean for the most part we still are, I think Santa could of been based off a real person and goats can have mutated fused horns naturally, the Easter bunnie is an amalgam of pagan mythos.

Hardly

The "it" is required to show that it is the subject of the sentence that you hate

Otherwise, you're just saying "I hate"

What do you hate? Everything?

Muricans

cheering etc during the exiting moment in matches/races/whatever which are usually also Live is pretty damn different from clapping after a non-live event ended and the excitement is over.

it's not about the clapping anyways, it's about Americans being socially awkward.

And we're the socially awkward ones?

>The "it" is required to show that it is the subject of the sentence that you hate
exclusion of the direct object is only frowned upon when its exclusion leads to a loss in understanding. For example:
1. I hate grammar nazis who don't know grammar
2. I hate who don't know grammar
here we see the direct object's removal leaves us ignorant of what the author hates. But in this alternative example:
1. I hate it when faggots preach orthodoxy in English but fail to understand its nuances
2. I hate when faggots preach orthodoxy in English but fail to understand its nuances
Here we see that excluding the direct object (pronoun) "it" does not lose meaning, everybody who reads it understands the author hates "it" which is a nebulous term regardless.

The rule of thumb is: if removing the grammatic object leaves us ignorant of the true intention, we made an error. If removing it does not (see I did it there), we can use it without folly.

neat single files yes.

and we do show each other appreciation, because we tend to go to movies with friends or family and then talk about how awesome/crap it was.

but not feeling the need to talk about it to some complete stranger that sits besides me in the dark.

I think it speaks volumes that you guys feel this bonding need when sitting in the dark.
feels much safer doesn't it? you can pretend you are pert of this group and celebrate it without actually having to do anything social at all.
>>
>>676533078
This answer is correct, but it doesn't give the other part of the explanation.

Moreover, it's to show ourselves that we appreciated it. See, we don't give a shit about actually appreciating it, or showing our gratitude to the creators of the work or participants in it, we care about showing ourselves and the people around us that we thought that was a great movie.

Except we tend to go with a group as well and surely talk about the movie as we leave and on the way home. The clapping is just non verbal communication with the strangers who witnessed the art with you.

Anything that anyone in any country has ever enjoyed since the invention of electricity is American Culture. Any non Americans in this thread knows at least a half-dozen American celebrities, musical groups, our current President, the last President, and probably know most of the possible next Presidents.
Meanwhile the only Americans who have ever given a fuck about the strange bullshit that passes for culture anywhere else are the types of faggots who go around apologizing for the real Americans who couldn't give a fuck about them either.

For showing unified appreciation? Just because no one is there to hear the clap doesn't mean we don't want to clap to unanimously agree that we liked what we saw and wanted to confirm with others?

All you cucks are stupid the reason we clap is becsuse the theater (as well as in Europe) used to be exactly like a play. Youd see it and it would have an orchestra. At the end they would clap for the orchestra and director since he was usually there st the big theaters. This slowly transformed into the modern theater. Its becoming less and less popular during day time movies and nigjt times
Mostly I see people clap at primeres.

It is a fair point, but in sports you actually care about the outcome because it has real life implications (promotion/relegation from leagues, any bets placed on the match, bragging rights with friends, or even the affect on your local area if your local team does well), whereas whether the good guy dies or not in a film does not affect your life outside of the movie at all, bar perhaps preventing a second movie about that character.

>>676555998 you live in the US and have never seen it happen? I mean, did you even watch any of the political debates that have been going on? I've seen it 3 times this year on the debates and I don't even watch them in their entirety nor do I watch every one. Political rallies too, just, I don't know how you can live here and never see it happen.

If you can't understand why it would happen in political rallies, you just as fucking stupid as the formatting of your reply indicates. I'm not the guy you're replying to, but you're misrepresenting Americans as chanting USA everywhere they go and that's not true from my observation.

Because that shits real you god damn imbecile. That shit is ACTUALLY HAPPENING

>>676556784 Where did I say I didn't understand it? I just said I find it to be creepy nationalism. If you can't understand why I would find it creepy then you really need to gain a better perspective of it's intentions >>676554625

Everywhere you go you would hear clapping, constant clapping
>>
I remember about 15 years ago I went to Florida with my mum and dad, I was about 10 at the time.
We went for an all you can eat breakfast and it wasnt the popcorn chicken or ice cream that amazed me.
It was how when an American customer had finished and was about to leave, they would turn around to the whole restaurant and say, thanks y'all, before preceding to clap their own exit.
I'll never forget that experience, thank you America

Nationalism at political rallies is certainly an unusual and creepy thing seen only in America.

>Only clapping at the beginning and the end.

Are you fucking serious? They clapped when:
>Story slider appeared
>When Star Wars begins
>When Gaylo appears.
>When FN appeared on screen
>When Ray appeared on screen
>When BB8 appeared on screen
>When the Millennial Falcon was discovered
>Thunderous applause when Han Solo and Chewbaka appeared
>When the lightsaber was found.
>When FN faced TRAITOR man.
>When Ray faces Kylo
>When Leia appeared
>When new death star appears.
>When Ray faces Kylo again
>When Ray slashes Kylo in the face
>When Deathstar gets destoryed
>When Ray finds Luke
>When you see Luke
>When credits and after credits

You're EXTREMELY undermining Ameritards.

Not amerifag or eurofag. Have literally never seen anyone ever clap at a movie.
>>
>>676532375
That's to identify the retards in the audience. Same as the people that laugh at trailers for fucking pixar movies.
>>
>>676559391
And nobody really cares, you're the only one upset and mad about it.

Look at the cum snorting faggot and laugh.

I have to agree with the guy. You're being really upset at the moment. Go be a fucking homosexual faggot some place else. There is a containment trap thread around here some where for faggots like you.

I was a kid, but I remember everyone clapping when the bad guy got killed in kindergarten cop.
Only other clapping I saw was after zombieland
>>
>>676560899
And your agreement would be valued if you weren't a redditor posting reaction macros as if were still 6 years ago and that were still a thing here. I guess reading ED can't teach you how to not be an anachronistic tryhard.
