I do watch more movies at home than at the theater though. We have an excellent home theater setup.

I can't wait to get a house and make a dedicated movie room with a projector though. Even a big plasma TV isn't quite the same.



Do the home theatre projectors they have send out digital quality picture yet?

I think that we should all speak up when we go out and someone is ruining it. We need to tell the manangement it is unacceptable.

It's really not just kids. I've seen countless obnoxious adults in the cinema.



That's true, Laura. Sometimes the adults are worse than the kids.

Ok I dont know if it is just Oklahoma or something but ever since I moved here every single time I have seen a movie in the theater there have been people or a bunch of people that are just ruining the movie. One thing that really annoys me is when people are texting and their phone lights up cause it pulls your focus to them and they dont try to be polite and hide the light I have seen many people actually holding their phone up cause they are leaning back. oh and talking. One time I went to see a movie and their were only like 10 of us in the theator and this teen next to me is taking calls throughout the movie. and he is talking as loud as if he were in a crowded room. I finnaly yelled at him to shut up during a really quiet part of the movie and he looks at me like 'do you mind i am on the phone'.

The worst was when I went down to OKC and saw the unborn. there were like 30 kids 12 to 15 in the front section and they were just screaming every time something scary happened. but they were not doing it cause they were scared they were doing it cause they were just having fun screaming. then during the really scary part they were just screaming over and over again. It made it not scary at all for me. Apparently like 4 people went out and got managers and then 3 ushers came in and stood around them. And guess what the next scary part not a single scream.

So is it just that kids these days dont have any mannors, that makes me feel old, but when I was in highschool this never happened. then I was thinking maybe its cause I would always see movies in suburbia and now i am seeing them in big and small cities.



It's not just there, it's here, and I suspect everywhere..
is the reason why I don't go to the movies anymore; and I used to LOVE going.

It's just too expensive to go, and have your hard earned money, basically wasted because of some jackass'es ignorance!

As far as talking on the phones, they should be banned in theatres..
receiveing a call? Yes, but only for emergency use; then the call should be taken in the snack area. - Otherwise, they should be thrown out of the theatre..

Some people are just soooo selfish and ignorant now days.

There's been times when I've needed to text someone urgently while at the cinema, but then I just shove my phone in my bag, put my hands in the bag, text and hope for the best

Reminds me of when I went to see Mamma Mia at the cinema. There was a bunch of drunk 40something women at the back, singing along incredibly loudly to every ABBA song that was in the movie, and calling out random s*** and shouting for everyone to join in. I actually wanted to massacre them at that point. They ruined the f***ing movie.
