Something has come to my attention recently. It seems that most people cannot distinguish a movie theater from their own living rooms. So, I will help out here - because I'm such a nice guy.

FIRST.

Talking: don't do it. We can hear you. We don't want to hear you. If you don't understand the movie, maybe you should pay more attention.

SECOND.

Kicking the back of the seat in front of you: AAAAAAGH. It's bad enough when a kid does it, but shouldn't adults know better? Also, the seats are connected. It doesn't matter if you aren't seated right behind someone or not, we can feel ANY contact you make. I know the aisles are narrow, but try to consider the people in the row in front of you.

THIRD.

Talking to strangers (namely, me): I don't care if the movie is over. I'm watching the credits. I don't care if you think it's weird, don't try to start a conversation with me! It's just weird. Plus, it's annoying. How presumptuous do you have to be to interrupt someone's personal reverie with your empty conversation?

Thank you, that is all.

Hm, I've never encountered that one. Odd.

Good point, though.

FOURTH.

Chew with your mouth closed. We're not back on the farm.
 
Stay in your damn seat when the movie plays. You know your bladder can't engulp that whole swimming pool full of Coca-Cola, why do you even bother buying one before the movies?
 
Cellphones. If you're going to a movie, TURN OFF YOUR ****ING CELLPHONE, and if you happen to forget and it rings..don't answer it and start talking. Turn it off. I've had this happen at the last two movies I've gone to. What makes it worse is the fact that they don't even try to whisper, they have to talk OVER the movie instead.:mad:

Yeh Ethix, I was considering adding that one in my post, but I just figured it went along with not Talking. But then again, just hearing those annoyingly stupid rings again and again....gah.

...or, drink the whole thing. Now you don't have to get up to go to the bathroom.
 
i actually work at the movies. some of the customers that come in are the rudest little ****s ever. i had to kick 2 women out once because they were spitting on people. YUCK!!!!!!!!!

One of my fellow collieges had to confisate someones phone as they were ringing people during the movie


customers suck, if you come into my cinema WATCH OUT!!!
 
I think the last time I actually went to see a movie was 5 years ago...And I wasn't there for the movie. I was just trying to get some...In the movie theatre, on the elevator in the hallway outside of the theatre, on the roof of the theatre...Er, sorry. Good night I had there.

I suppose I'd have to beat somebody if they were interupting a movie I wanted to see, or at least tell them to shut the **** up in the most rude manner possible.
 
Here's one: take a shower! That and cut down on the bean-with-bacon before you leave the house. It's bad enough I have to be confronted with the Smells Of The Nation every day on the bus, I don't particularly want to follow that up during my leisure time.
