First off, it's my money, my time, and my phone. You are not entitled to an explanation of how I am managing the three. And I don't agree that the light from other phones is really that distracting....to me. As for what bothers other people, that list is endless. Now if the theater has a policy against texting....fine. Post it for all to see. It's their business and they can forbid the use of cell phones if they wish. Just make it clear up front.
Dude, if you need someone to pass or make a law for you to behave yourself then you are an asshole. We don’t need more rules and laws to make rude people behave. If you can’t see or understand that your behavior is wrong for the environment you are in then stay out of that environment. You are not the only one in the theater to pay for being there. And your cost doesn’t give you the right to infringe on the enjoyment of the movie with your electronic device. Take it to the lobby or watch the movie at home. If you insist on being rude in the theater I’m in you’ll find out how uncomfortable that phone will feel as it passes through your bowels.
Hon, I don’t give a rat’s rear-end how you manage your money, your time or your phone.
Most movie theaters now have an announcement at the beginning of the movie that explicitly says “No talking or texting.” So, why are you still texting during the movie when the policy of the theater is clearly communicated before every showing of every movie?
Why do you think it’s ok to be obnoxious and bother other people who have paid a fair bit of money to go to the movie theater for your selfish need to tweet someone? Why is it so hard for you to understand why others would find texting during a movie disturbing? Why does your need to tweet outweigh my ‘need’ to watch the movie undisturbed? Why can’t you leave the theater, transact your phone business, and return to watch the movie?
Every movie theater I've been in posts a cellphone notice prominently on the screen numerous times in between showing the upcoming movies and advertisements before the main movie begins. Perhaps you're too busy texting to notice? Just saying.......
And it is my time my money and my theater experience that you are disturbing.
You are not entitled to an explanation of how I am managing the three. And I don't agree that the light from other phones is really that distracting....to me.
I could not care less if it is disturbing to me and that is sufficient to make you wrong. As the legal adage says; Your right to swing your fist ends where my nose begins.
As for what bothers other people, that list is endless. Now if the theater has a policy against texting....fine. Post it for all to see. It's their business and they can forbid the use of cell phones if they wish. Just make it clear up front.
Really they need to post signs about good manners and decency. How distracting would it be for you to have someone whistling in your ear during the movie, or shooting spit balls at you? I certainly hope the next time you choose to be this ignorant you are sitting next to someone less patient than me.
