Horrible Movie Theater Experience Extravaganza!!

[Octoberist]

When I saw The Mist, right after JACK BLACK as the KUNG FU PANDA told the audience to turn off our cell phones, a 13 thug-wannabe kid was talking on his cell for a good 5 minutes. When the movie was actually playing!

I'm not talking about "I have to go now, there's a movie playing". No it's worse. It's more like a full on conversation during the freakin' movie.

I wanted to smack him because..if you're not going to listen to a cartoon panda about the usage of cells, then your *****ebaggery has went up a notch.

The ones that act like jerks always have about four friends with them. So if you say **** they have backup.

That's why it's great when you go with a good amount of friends as well. They want to start **** well, I've always wanted to throw someone down a few sets of chairs and hope they break an arm leg or their neck to teach them a lesson.

every "date" I have ever been to a movie is an annoying experiance cause the girl decides to talk about life the universe and everything during the movie.....my new tactic is to watch the movie a few days in advance to going to the cinema on a date

Going to a movie on a date is hard.
I want to see the movie....stop touching me.
I went to see The Matrix Revolutions and my date kept kissing my hand, each finger and ****. I was like dude, seriously quit it.
Lol, I was the same when he rented a movie and came over. I was really getting into the movie. We had all night to get it on, let me watch this so you can take it with you when you go.

 

[spidey-dude]

lol, I try to avoid dates to the movies, mainly cause I feel really bad for anyone near us cause of the constant talking

 

[Sugarculted]

I always went to the cinemas during a date. If she's quiet, enjoys the same stuff as me, great success!

What if she's prone to talking your ear off and likes Hannah Montana? But she has a sweet caboose?

 

[tzarinna]

Oy. I'd probably palm anyone in the face if they mentioned they liked Hannah Montana

When, i saw 'Out of Time', there was a group of girls sitting to my right, and another sitting further down the isle, to my left. Words were exchanged from the group on the left, cause the group on the right kept talking during the movie. A mini fight broke out, the cops were called (don't know by who), and the theatre awarded the rest of the audience free tickets.

Teenage girls are some of the worst offenders.

That's one of my fantasies.

 

[Symbiotic]

Seriously.

 

[Warhammer]

I hate it when people start texting near me. It is all dark, and suddenly, you get taken out of the experience because you see the bright ass light. I got pissed at my friend for texting during the entire I Am Legend.

 

[tzarinna]

I saw someone taping Cloverfield, they were in my row but across the aisle like 10-15 people away and I could still see the damn thing.

When I saw Apocalypto, these two fat black ladies behind me read every single subtitle in the movie out loud. They wouldn't shut up, even with the whole theater telling them to.

When I saw Casino Royale, at the end, right after Bond kneecaps Mr. White, when Bond goes to say "My name is Bond, James Bond" this lady next to me says James Bond along with him. I know it sounds like a rather inane nitpick, but her nasally, high pitched voice just ruined the otherwise completely badass moment.

I went to see an early screening of Beowulf a few days before it came out. The screening was supposed to be in digital 3D. It was a free screening, so it was first come, first served, and you had to line up to ensure yourself a spot. I stood in line for about an hour until they let us into the theater, where we sat for another hour. At that point, the movie was supposed to start a half an hour ago. So the manager of the theater comes out and tells us that the digital projector is busted, so they won't be showing it in 3D, but they will be showing it on regular film, but not for another hour. I stayed, but the movie turned out to be complete ****. What a waste of time. Staying in a theater for hours and hours just to watch a bad movie.

When I saw Austin Powers in Goldmember or whatever it was called, the jackass projectionist put the third reel on backwards, so at a certain point the movie started playing in reverse. They let us into a later showing for free to make up for it. I should have just got my money back. That movie was a real POS.

When I saw the first AVP, the film got caught on the light bulb and melted. I got my money back for that one.

When I saw a midnight showing of Superman Returns, the screen blacked out for a couple of minutes. That sucked, because I really love that movie.

 

[terry78]

I don't get how theatres can make such stupid mistakes with the reels, sounds, visuals, etc. Ain't there somebody in the booth?

That movie was more bearable seen in 3D.

 

[Prison Mike]

Beowulf sucked balls. I hated that film.

 

[Drizzle]

I would have hated it in regular ass 2D. But 3D made it more...exciting. It still was a really forgettable movie.

Here's what I wrote here the moment I got home from seeing Spider-Man 3.



The movie was much more enjoyable when I watched it on Blu-Ray, but I won't soon forget the awful experience of watching it while a bunch of dumb school kids were snorting mushrooms a few feet a way.

I had the same experiences. Some teens were laughing when MJ broke up with Peter,and that was a heartbreaking scene. I guess they had to show everyone how "tough" they were. No offense to anyone who posts here,but most of the problems I encounter at the movies are with teens. Like when I go to see horror films. The guys try to act all macho in front of their girlfriend or buddies,and the teenage/young girls sit through the whole thing saying,"Ewwwwwwww! That's gross!"

When I went to see independence day, this big biker dude and his lady friend sat down in front of me. He brought his own snacks in from the outside, which everyone knows is a big no no.

Anywho, he and his girl were sitting when the usher came up to him and told him that he couldnt bring food from the outside in. This guy went nuts, he jumped up and got right in the ushers face. I couldnt hear what he said to him, but he was only about an inch from his face and was poking him in the chest with his finger. I thought he was going to hit him.

The usher left and returned a couple of mins later with the manager.
Things got really loud then. A bunch of F you's were thrown around untill finally the cops showed up and escorted the guy out. Folks had even gotten up out of their seats not knowing what was gonna happen.
When it was over, The manager apologized to everyone and gave us all two free passes.

When I saw that scene, the majority of the theater (not just teens) laughed, including myself. It was bad acting on Tobey's part. And this is coming from a Spidey 3 fan.

I thought it was a sad moment,but then again their were many parts of Spider-man that drew laughs when it was supposed to be serious. I blame Raimi for that one,not the crowd.

The most recent was Transformers. These two guys in their late teens/early twenties would not shut up. They were commenting on every single thing; the best of which had to be, "that is an awesome Porsche", when Bumblebee got his new look.

The funniest was when I saw Scream 2 in high school. There were people smoking weed, making cell phone calls to one another within the theater etc. The best part was this gangsta next to me that kept standing up, yelling, "choke dat b****, choke dat Party of 5 action, choke her!"
