This is what I wish they would say at the beginning of the movies:

“Please, turn off your cell phones, take your screaming brat out and CLOSE YOUR MOUTH WHEN YOU CHEW!”

WHOA!! That was the best movie i’ve ever read. I felt like i was really there in the theater, only.. you didn’t make mention of that kid that’s a little too young to be watching. you know, the kid that has his size 8 sneakers in the small of my back as i’m trying to focus on the movie but my spleen is about to rupture..

never mind, i’ll get over it someday.

maybe you should just be grateful that his noises distracted you from the 6 month old infant screaming just 2 rows away. (my favorite child-in-a-movie-theatre incident involved “Basic Instinct” and parents who brought their 4 children – all under the age of 5. and why not? what could be better family entertainment than Sharon Stone’s cha-cha and violent knife killings?)

Man, that’s a lot of annoying chips.

My mom once brought in chinese food into the movie theater. Very smelly but very quiet.

I feel your pain. My mother in law collects clocks…loud noisy chiming clocks. So it is a given that if you are watching something at the inlaws house, you will get to “And the murderer is…BONG BONG TING TING CUKOO CUKOO BONG BONG” etc.

May I suggest catching up on what you missed at http://www.themoviespoiler.com ?

The fantasy goes something like this: you get up and get a bag of twizzlers, march up to him, grab the bag of chips from his hand, thrust the silent, but delicious tubes o’sugar into his chip dusted hands and walk back to your seat.
The whole audience applauds you and the manager gives you free movies for life.

This is exactly why I consume 100% of my Raisinettes and Sour Patch Kids during the previews.

Now, see – I didn’t wasn’t gonna see this movie – but you’ve peaked my interest…

I’m with Belle, I’ll wait till it comes out on video or On Demand. Of course, I’ll have to make sure Hubby doesn’t have any chips when we watch it.

Why would you see a movie where Ben Affleck doesn’t take his shirt off? It’s your own fault you know.

Dude! Like I said! Murder, She Wrote! Crunchy potato chips don’t even affect the plot because it never changes!

Why do movie theatres even SELL this stuff?! I am going to become rich and famous by opening a line of movie theatres that only sells SOFT foodstuffs like jelly bears and marshmallows and NO fizzy drinks. Everything will be sold in fluffy clouds that make no crinkly noises. Cell phones will be hammered flat on entry and “talkers” will be Duct Taped at the first sign of inappropriate communication.

People with loud food wrappers in movie theaters piss me off so much that I’m surprised I haven’t actually assaulted anyone in all my movie-going days.

Maybe when I’m old and grey I’ll be able to get away with whacking them with a handbag. Something to look forward to.
