This is an incorrect choice. The correct sentence should read, "I am sitting ON a nice big couch". One cannot "sit in on" a couch because a couch is not an activity! You cannot "attend" a couch.
This is an incorrect choice. The correct sentence should read, "I'm going to watch a film" or "I am going to attend a film screening". However, one cannot "sit in on" a film because it is not an activity in which other people are participating.

However, one cannot "sit in on" a protest, because it is an activity in which you either actively participate in (and are part of the protest), or don't participate in (and are not part of the protest). For example, you also cannot "sit in on" a rugby game. You either play in it or watch it. "To sit in on" generally refers to meetings or classes.
