Two things. The toddler was at the day care—not the movie house with her parents. The Dad was texting the babysitter.

The other thing is the movie hadn’t started. The old cop told him to stop texting during the previews.

Thank you. I didn’t realize the toddler was at the daycare; I did know the texting was during the previews. My statement stands though, that he should’ve done what all moviegoers have to do on occasion....change seats.

Here is what I don’t get.

How does ‘texting’ bother other moviegoers ?

It would make more sense if he was TALKING on the phone, or had the SPEAKER on, but texting ? That makes no noise.

Gee... I remember the good ole’ days when People got new LED watches for Christmas and set the alarm to go off during the movie. No one got killed, that I remember.

Continue your conversation with your partner that you had while the house lights were up and see if the entire audience doesn't glare at you. Go on, try talking at normal voice during the previews and see if others don't think you are ruining their movie experience.
