homework for you - next time you're at the show - take a peek around to see how the others do it.


the theatre we go to - you couldnt do that without the back of the chair cutting into your ankles ... it would be incredibly uncomfortable to sit that way.

I do that, too, but only if the seat is empty. I don't have a problem with people putting their feet up as long as they're out of my way...

bringing kids to age inappropriate shows - then they scream because they are scared. or crying babies.

if shhhh, shhhhh , shhh doesnt work ... get the fuck out of the theatre

Fucking disgusting pieces of trash. I feel the same way. The boyfriend and I went to see Friday night showing of Horrorfest's Autopsy and this real piece of work had her one-year-old there. It's a fucking HORROR MOVIE.

Babies shouldn't be let into the theater. PERIOD, let alone for R-rated films. WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE?!?!?!

the exception is the New Beverly Cinema where bringing in beer/weed is expected and everyone shouts at the screen - but it is also like a church... or more like a cult

I'd be throwing someone out of a theater who was talking on thier phone or texting during a film

That sounds like Heaven.

I find it appalling that it's actually RARE that I go to a movie and it's silent for the entire duration. If you go to the movies, YOU SHOULD BE SILENT.

If you talk during the movies, you should be shot.

Plain and simple.

Fair enough, different theaters and seating and all...

The theater I go to has stadium seating and the tops of the seats are well padded.

I don't mind the foot thing. I've only ever seen people do it like Despare.

What I can't stand is when somebody with a weak bladder sits rights at wall end of a row filled with people.

Or people who throw popcorn

Or people who put their bag on the seta next to them in a crowded theatre.

Or people who take both arm rests

Or people who see a three seat gap and choose the middle one.

Or people who stick their thumb up after a trailer.

Or people who constantly tell their buddy that this is; "...a good bit."

I'm a bit of a "sprawler;" but I try to sit in the row with the aisle that cuts through the seats to give access to the exits. That way I can slouch as much as I want. :D

Personally, I hate nacho eaters.
Are you an asshole? Probably not...but I still hate you.

Do you even realize how stinky that shit is when you breathe it on the back of my head? They are way overpriced anyway, just get popcorn and some candy.

If you want DINNER...go eat dinner. Stay away from nachos and hot dogs.
I can tell you that after working in a movie theater for 2 years, you don't want to eat them anyway. Trust me.

Don't forget: 14 year olds finger bangin their girlfriends, spitwads and/or the mysterious piece of candy that hits you in the back of the head.

I always switch my phone of during a movie and keep my talking to a quiet whisper. I do have a habit of laughing my ass off during gory scenes which gets some whack looks from people.

The only time I've been an asshole was during the Da Vinci Code. Me and a few guys had been drinking most of the afternoon and just let that movie have it :D We must've broke some sort of record for beer consumed during a movie! Most people enjoyed our clever "wit" and we didn't get asked to leave so I guess it wasn't to bad. One of my favorite movie going experiences. Can't remember a damn thing about that flick except that it sucked.

That place sounds like all types of awesome!

I do have a habit of putting my feet on the back of seats but only if nobody is sitting in front of me.And I put my feet right below the top of the seat.So the only way they could get there head dirty woukld be to bend thier head backwards at a ninety degree angle.
