Are you hyped /tv/? Sitting between people listening to and recording Whatsapp messages and playing Bejeweled during the movie is sure going to be a memorable experience don't you think?

honestly i'd rather have this than loud niggers niggering niggeriously and 5 y olds screaming and running around.
This is fine, as long as they gas the audience and mulch the corpses after.
If you can't put a phone away for 3 hours, THEN DONT FUCKING GO TO THE MOVIES.
I'm mad now.

america sounds like a horrible place to live

Most millennials go to the movies though. Why are all these Jews so out of touch with reality?
american cinema experiences seem bad
>go to cinema
>people whoop, cheer and applaud at fictional characters
>people pull out their phones to talk
>young children are allowed into r rated stuff
>get shot
No, that's utterly ridiculous. I'm 22, live in a college town, and I've never seen anyone incapable of putting their phone away at the local theater here
>People can't be away from their phones
I know people don't do it at home but shouldn't someone paying money to see the film see it without much light obtrusion?
I stopped going to theaters precisely because of this problem. Fucking rather just wait for a BD release so I can watch it on my home theater without disruptions when my wife and her son are out.

people dont really use their phones in the theaters here
obviously it happens but its rarethe rest is true, though
That feel when you enjoy the occasional film at the Alamo, where they throw talkers and texters out on their asses.
It feels pretty fucking good.
God dammit. There's an Alamo drafthouse in my town, which bans phones, but they have waiters scurrying around with food for half the movie, and some retard behind me ends up gasping or whispering to her friend the whole time anyways. I just want to go to an old style theater that doesn't allow women and phones and food service. Is that so much to ask?

>be me at christmas
>sister's all like "anon the new star wars is coming out and I haven't seen th old ones, we have to watch them"
