I've had many a guys ask me out to watch a movie at their house and I just met them. It's a bad idea in my opinion and I've declined all but one and regretted the one I did accept... It was awkward being introduced to a roommate as "the new girlfriend" when I just met the guy lol
Anyway, I understand the easiness behind it and I can even see where a guy may not be trying to "get some," but that's usually the first thing that pops into my head... With that said, I've comfortably accepted the offer as a second date without regrets (and without sex lol) But if other girls are anything like me, that probably runs through there head (ie, "this guys thinks were gonna have sex")
Sorry if that offends you, but some guys ruin it for them all...or they have at least for me. I prefer to spend some time in public with the person to get to know them first... And "public" doesn't mean spend $200 bucks on our first date and I'll let you slide for the second, its just safer...
When my friend asked me to his place for a movie marathon I declined. when he said this I didn't think that he just wanted sex because he asked me during church, but at least for me my parents sort of drilled it into my head that I shouldn't go with a someone alone untill I knew them well. It that whole stranger danger thing. what you could do is take her out to a park or for dinner or something else that is in a public place and if the date is going well you could be like I would have invited you to my place but it is such a mess, or something like that. that gives her a chance to get to know you better and that makes it seem less like you are trying to get in her pants but more gentleman like. If she says she doesn't mind then you could bring up that new movie you got or... Then she can reply without having her "stranger danger" alert blaring.
if we're already friends for awhile first (at least a couple of months) sure but if I don't know him that well? no way. First off it's way too awkward when we barely know each other to be that intimate and alone. Secondly no way I'm going to some guys house I barely know and being put in a vulnerable position. Most women are looking for an escape route in case you're really a psycho and want to get out of the situation. I say don't put her on the uncomfortable defensive of something so intimate right off the bat. I think movie and dinner at your house is at very earliest a 3rd date sort of thing. jmo.
Probably not a good idea if you just met the girl, it might come off as you only wanting to hook up later. But my first date was at my house watching a movie, though that date was a friend I knew for awhile first.

I wouldn't go out with him and would probably delete him from my number. that comes across as mildly disrespectful to me, like he thinks I'm the type of girl who is just willing to go to your house and f*** when I don't even know you. They show movies at the theater lol why would I go to a strangers house? I don't know him!
It depends on what she thinks. Some people would think it leads to one thing, others will see it just as it is: a movie date. When I was invited over to my last boyfriend's house, it was pretty much to see his house, meet his family, and hang out with him at the place he felt most comfortable and himself.
It is not a good idea. If a guy asks me to watch a movie at his place, I always think that he just wants sex. I also prefer to go to a restaurant or a bar on the first date, that is more personal and you have the opportunity to get to know each other much better.
I would be skeptical if I dodn't know him really well because I am very cautious about being alone with guys I don't know and don't trust.
Would depend how well I knew him. If we'd literally just met then I'd rather go out somewhere than to his house.
If we'd known each other for a while though, it'd be fine.
Actually, my first date with my boyfriend was watching a movie at his :)
This says 'hook up only'. Its not a date.
