That was awesome. I wish every theatre would kick people out for that.

I would bet that if you complained to an employee about someone in front of you texting they'd get kicked out.

I would bet not. They may tell them to shut it off though. In the end you would miss more of the movie going out and finding somebody.

I would patronize the Alamo Drafthouse exclusively, if I could.

I've been to Alamo Drafthouse in Austin when Mr. Sinus Theater was allowed to perform there. People are really laid back there - I'm glad they put this jerk in his place.

People texting, so long as it is on silent, doesn't bother me. People talking on the phone though should be a bootable offense.

I am just the opposite. If somebody is talking very quietly on the phone it is less bothersome to less people than a cell phone screen that pretty much anybody behind them is being distracted by. Those white screens are like a flash light right in the face in a dark theatre trying to watch a movie. In the end neither of them should be done in a theatre. Turn the god damned phone off for 2 hours, you are there to get away.

No, you'll just have to take my word for it. He sat close to the front, I was somewhere near the back and his screen lit up the whole theater. Ok, I'm exaggerating a bit, but I was watching him and the movie at the same time, so I noticed he was on his phone quite a bit.

And it's "Misses"...thank you!

LOL! I thought you were joking.

Totally agree they should turn the effing thing off but

I'm more annoyed at sitting behind the guy with huge head or the kid constantly kicking my seat from behind.

Exactly. I didn't pay my money to be disturbed by someone's ****ing phone.

well maybe theathers should get cell phone jammers. so people wont post facebook status every 5 seconds during the movie.

personally i like when people do that. so i can jsut tell them to stop talking on their phone or stop texting. so if they bamouth me back . then its fun cus then i can fight

 

[DutchJazzer]
