That is a thing of beauty!
I went to a mom-and-pop theater to see X-Men two weeks ago, and some old bat cracked her gum from start to finish. I turned around and politely asked her to stop, but she ignored me. So I followed her out of the theater when the movie was over, and told her how rude she was, and she STILL ignored me. B*tch!
People-- we are humans, not cows. Do.Not.Chomp.Your.Gum-- no matter how old you are (and this chick was about 75-80+)
Damn near ruined the movie for me, and the screening was sold out, so there was no place for me to go....

I think the problem is a lot of people think that when they're in a movie theater they're in the privacy of their own home. Which means they should probably STAY HOME.

I would like to personally thank the woman who brought a 3 year-old child to Harry Potter yesterday. The movie was truly made complete by questions like "Why is he bleeding? Who's that? Where are they?" all said in her outside voice. You truly rock as a parent and a human being.

Oh MAN, Daisy, I would be tempted to kill someone. At my theatre (for the midnight showing last Thursday) there were a few whispers and giggles as the movie started, followed promptly by a flurry of furious "SSSSSHHHH! I didn't line up for twelve hours to hear you talk!".

My friend was telling me last night about how she just took her four year old son to his first movie yesterday. I told her, "And this is why you are an awesome mother, dammit!"

My oldest nephew was 4 at his first movie (which was WALL-E.) My other nephew was 2 at his first, but it was a mommy matinee of Up so no one cared that he was fidgety.

Can I say that I'm really happy with our new cinema? All their 8 screens are in the basement, which means no range for any cell phone! Hurrah!

The last time I went out to see a movie, I was red from frustration at the girl in front of me with her bloomin' cell phone.
Tonight I brought the hammer down on the girl in front of me when she whipped out her phone tonight during Thor. I waited while she read her email, but when she went in to text back, I held her shoulder in a Volcon mind meld pinch and whispered in her ear, "Please turn that off. You're bothering me." Off it went, and neither she nor her friends pulled out a phone for the rest of the movie.

Where are they?" all said in her outside voice. You truly rock as a parent and a human being. "He's bleeding because he wouldn't stop talking during a movie, cupcake!" Did the kid ask any questions about the Summer's Eve ad?  Your story reminds me of a recent review of Game of Thrones in which the writer would only let a relative see the series with him if the relative didn't ask any questions while watching. |
