Grammar question related to the forms of 'to be'

Hi there,

here's my question:

pretending i want to go to the cinema with my boyfriend. do i say:

John and I AM going to the cinema

or

John and I ARE going to the cinema

so does the form of 'to be' depend on the last person who was named(-> singular) or on all people involved (->plural)

in addition to that i do also have a comma rule in my head, is there any?

Thank you so much Emotion: smile
