If we all did come over to your place you'd just end up with a huge carpet cleaning bill.

This is true. If you guys are so cool and all, you'd think you could find something better to do with your money, especially since you already complained about the high prices of tickets. Sheesh.You guys need to be banned from theaters for life. Seriously. If all you want to do is screw around then save yourself 10 dollars and do it somewhere else. Those who want to see the movie didn't pay to be distracted by idiots.
Cinemas are for getting jiggy in, for playing Duck Duck Goose while the previews are running, for throwing nacho chips at the people in the front and for silently flirting with a fellow attractive audience member while the movie is playing...well for me anyways
My movie theatre has NO staff whatsoever in the theater during movies, and it's not like it's a small theatre either. When I went to see Return of the King some little kid behind me kept asking his dad "WHO'S THAT????" and my favourite "He can run FAST!" in regards to Aragorn.
However, the lack of staff proved to be an advantage, as whilst they had gone to the "Male restroom!" I emptied my bucket of popcorn (It was sweet, I asked for salted and sweet makes me want to vomit so I was trying to think of what to do with it anyway) onto the kid's seat. When they came back they were extremely confused and moved to seats further away from me, so I didn't have to put up with his comments anymore.
I rock.
WTF???
I go to the cinema to watch a movie on a big screen with great sound. i only go to see films which i know will be good on a big screen with good sound. the last film i saw was 'Constantine', it was v.good. If some stupid kid was being an idiot...............i would be mildly annoyed, and if they didnt stop i'd have words with them.

I don't know who to agree with. I guess I'm in the middle. If the movie sucks then I'll talk a little bit maybe and laugh and stuff. If the movie is good enough to keep my attention then I'll usually be quiet and watch the movie. So it depends on the movie. They're no people that go around checking the theaters during the movie so people can get away with pretty much everything. Which can suck sometimes or be a good thing sometimes, it depends on the situation. But I usually don't care if people fool around during a movie, I just ignore it. Which obviously some of you need to learn to do.

When I go to the cinema I like to wach a film in the quiet. I don't appreciate kids, young or old running around, throwing popcorn, etc etc. It pisses me off.
If a film is bad, in my opinon, I will whisper to my friends. Quietly, as I know that althoiugh I may think the film rubbish, others might not.
Just running around and jumping over chairs strikes me as plain immature and stupid. If you want to jump over chairs, go jump over your sofa.

Well, i guess you're a bigger person than I. I dont regularly go to the cinema, so when i do its because theres a film that i really want to see, and if kids are being stupid it can be quite annoying.But I usually don't care if people fool around during a movie, I just ignore it. Which obviously some of you need to learn to do.
Ignoring things is all well and good, but if Ive paid money to see a film, i dont want to have to ignore little kids being irritating, i want to relax and enjoy the movie.

Well, that's why you buy your own food and sneak it in. Matinees are only like 5-6 dollars, anyway.
They're no worse than you purposefully making noise during a movie.
I don't see how you can compare the awesomeness of seeing a movie on a huge screen with surround sound to a TV, unless you have a home cinema, but then there is still the issue of waiting an extra 6 months or so for the DVD.
The fun part about going to the theater is, you know, actually WATCHING THE FILM.
I hate people who goof of during the movie with complete disregard for the people who are actually trying to pay attention to the movie. I wouldn't hesitate to call the manager to kick your ass out of the theater if you pulled any of that crap while I was there.
If the previews look stupid (and they're scientifically engineered to be so,) I'll be loud and make fun of them. If I feel inclined to make comments to my friends during the movie, I try and whisper.
Seeing movies in a theater is a much nicer experience than at home. It feels more like you're there. I don't care to have people interrupt this.
