Also, why do they still leave their cell phones on when it is so easy to put them on vibrate and put in your pocket?!
I just don't get people sometimes...annoying!!

We had a couple at the last movie we saw
Not a peep out of them and then as soon as the movie starts they start blabbing
Everyone was yelling at them to shut up ! They finally got the hint and walked out throwing everyone the bird !

That image alone put a huge smile on my face! They're talking and being disruptive. They finally take a hint, leave and throw everyone the bird without saying a word! Silence at last!"The leads are weak!"

I haven't really encountered any people talking on the cell during a movie, they usually go to the lobby.
The ones that really annoys me are the moms/couples that bring in their babies. I don't think the baby is gonna remember the movie at all. Also, the parent(s) probably won't be able to focus on the films neither.PJ- 04/29/2003.06/24,25,27,28,30/2008.10/27,28,30,31/2009

yeah this happened to me when I took my little sister to see Oceans 13. There were these idiots right behind us who were talking throughout. It started getting REALLY annoying so I lean over to my sister and say.. loud enough so that they can hear me... "after the movie, we're gonna have to stick around because I'm gonna punch that fucking idiot behind me in the face!" I didn't hear another word out of them for the rest of the movie.
The best part though, was when the movie ended I turned around, and they were already goneWhoa, chill bro... you know you can't raise your voice like that when the lion's here.0 -
I am awful. I talk during movies. I make fun of people in the movie :( Or I get confused, like I have to ask my husband what just happened. I try to whisper.
now....
why do people talk at concerts? In november, when I went to a standing room only venue in baltimore (holds 1500 people), people were partying in groups and not even facing the stage.9/98, 9/00 - DC, 4/03 - Pitt., 7/03 - Bristow, 10/04 - Reading, 10/05 - Philly, 5/06 - DC, 6/06 - Pitt., 6/08 - Va Beach, 6/08 - DC, 5/10 - Bristow, 10/13 B'more

last time i was at the movies, i realized...... wow, i hate going to the movies.
uncomfortable, stuffy, cold, overpriced.
i would rather just wait for the movie to come out on DVD and enjoy it in the comfort of my own home with a few beers and smokey smokes.0 -
What drives me nuts is people that turn the ringer off, but still feel the need to flip open the cell phone thereby illuminating the area with the light and taking my attention off the screen. Can't you wait a whole 2 hours (usually less) to text someone?
At a movie once, the chair next to me was empty. The person behind that chair took their shoes off and rubbed their fucking stocking feet on the back of the chair and finally hung them over the chair about 10 inches from my face. I turned to my husband and said pretty loudly "are you catching this action in the chair next to me? you have GOT to be kidding me." The person did take their smelly-ass feet down.
Its like people forget they are in public or something. Its just so rude.0 -
they probably think theyre talking quietly when in fact the whole theatre can hear them.0

nothing beats going to the movies on new year's eve.. especially when the middle of the movie happens at midnight and some schmuck blurts out "happy new year"...Reading 2004

I am guilty of this one. But I'm am checking my emails from work and sometimes I have to respond. I guess I could take it out into the hallway. But once my phone is lit up, why not finish what I've started?"The leads are weak!"

Because its distracting to light it up to begin with?So rather than inconvenience yourself by taking it to the hall, you would rather potentially inconvenience those around you?
I know you're not the guy next to me that irritates the hell out of me, so I can't rightfully take it out on you.I apologize for that.
Do you sleep with your phone?0 -

Only on cold lonely nights with it set to vibrate. As to the other thing, I usually sit in the last row of the theatre with no one around. So hopefully I don't annoy folks to much, plus it's the best place for me to film my bootlegs. Anyone need The Hottie and The Nottie? It's some of my finest work!"The leads are weak!"

i told some guy once to be quiet (or maybe I said shut up!!) and he started telling the other person on the phone that he was just staying on the phone to annoy the lady in front of him!!!!So I'll just lie down and wait for the dream
