So I know I haven't posted on here in a while but there has been something that I have been wanting to post for quite some time now.
It is about proper movie etiquette.
I don't feel like I go to a lot of movies nowadays but when I do I really notice every little thing that drives me crazy.
It not that hard to be a normal person in a theater. But for some reason some people struggle with it.
Here are a few of my biggest pet peeves. If you do any of these, stop. ;)
1) The kicking of the back of the chair. Ugh, the worst. I mean in all the theaters in this day an age there is an ample amount of room to not have to kick someones chair over and over. If you are Kevin Durant size then I understand. And for the record Kevin Durant, you can kick my chair as much as you want. But seriously I will give each person a one time freebie but that's it. And its always the little 5 foot 3 chicks doing it. How do you not have enough leg room?! Ugh!
2) The people who wanna have a conversation the whole time. Why pay at least 9 bucks a piece to go see a movie and then just talk the whole time? You could have stayed home and saved the money. And if you are with someone who can't sit through a movie and not ask you a million questions about what is going on, then don't ever go to the movies with them again. Or break up with them. Whichever.
3) The screaming baby. Listen people, I understand its hard to get babysitters and they are expensive and all that. I get that. So you wanna bring your baby in a movie and try it out. That's cool with me. But you don't get to just let the baby cry the whole time. You get a minute or so and then you gotta go out in the hall. I mean you gave it a good shot, be proud of yourself. Better luck next time.
not trying to be mean but come on.
4) The people who actually answer the phone. I can't believe people actually do it but they do. how about a text message if its that big of a deal. Or if its an emergency go out in the hall. And when you answer the phone and try to sound like you are whispering you still just sound like someone on the phone in the theater.
5) Last but not least, the worst of all, the people who come to a movie LATE rolling 4 people deep who want you to get out of your seat that you have had for 15 minutes before the movie even started and SCOOT DOWN a seat so they can all sit together. Um, no. how about this... You can go sit your happy butts in the front row or you can be on time for a movie and get whatever seat you want like we did.
Sorry to sound rude but seriously people. Get it together! Its the main reason why I don't even go to movies on weekends or weekend premieres because people ruin them!
-I promise a more pleasant post next time. Happy movie going!
