I found myself among "talkers" only a few times at the theater... and I would either silence them with a PFFFFT! (you should hear my "PFFFFT!" It can silence all but the worst of them!) OR I would get up and move, casting a disgusted glare on my way out.

My main complaint about the movies is food that is apparently packaged in only the most loudly crackling of cellophanes. Cellophane-packaged food should be outlawed in theaters! Call your city councilman today! (joke)

I wonder if they provide headphones for the hard of hearing in the cinema. I would qualify, I think, since I can only hear from the one ear and every little noise distracts me.

hmmm...

I prefer to re-package 'food' in ziplock baggies. They're nice and quiet in the theater and slip nicely into my purse. ;)

But that's a great line in You've Got Mail when Meg Ryan and Greg Kinear are in the theater talking at the woman behind them shushes him.

He says, "What? The hotdog is singing. You need silence while the hotdog is singing?"
