#7 – not very often
#15 – relieved more than excited
#23 – I do still read reviews
#24 – not really
All others guilty as charged!
Other suggestions:
You have movie posters or stills on your walls rather than conventional art. (for me its: Casablanca in the lounge, Pulp Fiction and Three colours Red in my bedroom and various movie stills on the wall up the stairs.)
If you want to see a movie that no one else wants to see you happily go on your own.

I cannot believe I forgot what you suggested as I have movie stills and posters up.
Also I more than happily go to the cinema alone if I am the only one who wants to see a movie.

hahaha wow every single one of these applies to me except for 4 & 15, both of which sound location specific (no Cineworld or Orange where I live).
22 is ESPECIALLY relevant – i actually don’t mind not liking a film now, because I know I can tear it to shreds in a review
And both of Fandangogroovers apply as well – I have Memento, The Shawkshank Redemption, Casino Royale, Fight Club, Alien and Kill Bill Volume 1 in my bedroom (and The Dark Knight “why so serious” poster in my closet)

Good selection of posters/stills that you have around your house.
