I think this thread is directed at if a theater owner has the right to control the use of cell phone use in his own establishment. If he feels that cell phone use is bothersome and an inconvience to his patrons I feel he should have the right to not allow the use of them in his business. If there is someone that is so indispensible that they can not do without their cell phone let them go to another theater. There is nothing forcing a person into this theater.
I may like to have a beer while I watch a movie, should the owner be obligated to allow me my beer, or should he be allowed to make the rules he seems fit?

He does not own the airwaves. Therefore, he has no right over cell phone usage.
