10 Things I Hate While Going To The Movies!

I figured I go to the Movies so much why not share what bugs me the most.

Let's follow the lead of Indiana born David Lettermen and break this list down Top 10 style!

#10: People coming into the theater late.
This one is more of a distraction then something I really hate. But come on people. Sometimes the previews are the best thing to watch in the first place.

#9: Cell phone rings during the movie.
Come on Man, have enough responsibility to shut your personal tracker off or turn it to Silent while watching a flick. No one cares if someone wants to know where you are. Shut it!

#8: People Talking.
Talking like everyone in the theater gives a s&!t about what they have to say. I didn't come to see this movie to hear some degenerate express his views to his fellow degenerates while the film is playing and either did anyone else.

#7: Slurping!
If the culprit is an adult, then what the hell Man! Please, save us all from your desperate attempt to wet your whistle and get your lazy a$$ up and go get a refill. If it's kid then please refer to Number 6.

#6: Kids running up and down the isle.
If you cant control your kids outside of a Theater then what makes you think you can make them sit down long enough to watch a full length feature presentation of whatever film you are watching? Nothing that's what, these people are incredibly selfish, while letting their rugrats run rampant not only do they screw the viewing pleasure up for everyone else they make themselves look like complete jack holes.

#5: People who ask questions about every scene!
Are you freaking kidding me? Look I understand wanting to explain things to your buddy who is oblivious to what is going on up on the big screen but SHUT THE H&!L UP! No one cares that you are too stupid to follow, what most of the time are, simple events unfolding while watching a movie. By the time their ignorant friend is finished explaining one scene then the next one is almost over and the two idiots have to start the process all over again. All I can say is were the hell is Keven at when you need him?

#4: People farting and burping.
Normally this, in some instances, is funny. Like when Lee777 farts while on his computer but there is no one there to laugh but himself. That's funny, but not in a packed theater with nothing but a$$ holes and elbows. Besides that nothing delivers a follow up punch to one liners like 'Ill be back' then a loud juicy fart. Grow up you nasty b@$t@rds!!

#3: Baby's crying.
Need I say more. If I do please refer to #6

#2: The guy who smells like a bums nut sack!
Hey, hey hey hey, take a shower before you put yourself in a room full of people. This is the person that worked outside all day in the sun and smells like they just rolled in a pile of dirt and a$$. Who knows they might have and that's cool, but don't show up to a movie smelling like it!

#1: People giving away the ending right before it actually happens.
I was watching the 6th sense in theaters, I had an idea that Bruce was dead and was a ghost since he got shot at the beginning of the movie but I off course sat their with the anticipation that anything could happen. Right before it was revealed some Jerky explained to his Girlfriend that Bruce was dead, and then went on to say how he saw the flick the other day and ha ha I told ya so. To this day I still feel someone should have dragged that guy out in the street to be shot (calling Sirprize!). He ruined what has been the only solid movie Shamalamadingdong has put out to date.

That's my list ComicBookMovie fans, you guys or gals got anything to add?

Parents bringing young children to see a pg13 or R rated film with their children and then making a big scene about how vulgar it is everytime something pops up. You would figure they would do a little research and figureout its rated R for a reason. This has happened to me multiple times with the last time being when viewing the Dark Knight .

@Jman,

For #10, a good bit of retribution is to hit the offender with a spritz of revenge in a bottle "Liquid Ass", from near our neck of the woods, New Haven, IN.

What? He's a ghost?! Damn. You've ruined that movie for me now if I ever get round to watching it.

;)

Agree with all of the above.

My brother and I recently took it upon ourselves to call-out and even threaten to physically remove some guy from a cinema who, not only had his phone ring during the movie, but then proceeded to answer it and have a conversation. And didn't even bother lowering his voice!

He said "what's your problem?". We told him - in quite forceful terms. We even got a mini-cheer from the rest of auditorium when he finally got the message and turned the damn thing off. :)

ppl who make noises of excitement for the movie. some advice, watch them during the week, early. or wait till the movie has been out for awhile. and go alone. works for me

I like to go to the last showing on a Sunday to insure that stupid kids aren't there to jibber-jab the whole time.

reminds me of the time i saw Narnia back in 2005.
it had been out a few weeks and the auditorium was mostly empty. except for this small group of eight-ten year olds.
it was dark i couldn't tell how old they really were. they coulda been 57! but these kids were acting like complete 3 year olds by comparison!

running up and down the aisles, talking, laughing, and having a good time. unfortunatley they were sitting two seats away from ME!!!!!!
after a half hour of the torture of rampaging 8-10 year olds i decided to get them to shut up.
so during a quiet moment of the film which i was trying to enjoy btw, they were talking loudly of course.
but these were impressionable kids mark you. and i had my fun!
you see, i have the uncanny and some say freaky ability to crack my knuckles on demand. i don't usually flaunt it but these kids were driving me up a wall!
CLICK CLICK CLICK CLICK!
the kids looked towards me and the new sound that peaked their interest. one look at my face was enough to shut them up.

and i enjoyed the rest of the film in peaceful God given silence.

THE END.

@JMan
great article!!!!!

Love the list Jman!! One thing that happens almost everytime I go to see a movie: Everytime I have a empty seat right in front of me, somebody really really tall usually takes it and blocks my view! It's a friggin' curse, lol.

Or, like when I went to see Clash of the Titans last weekend. We got seats right in the middle of the empty theatre on a slow night. I'm thinking to myself that it was going to be great not being bumped by somebody and have some free space. By the time the movie started 20 people surrounded us out of nowhere! I damn near got claustrophobic.

When I was in high school a buddy of mine would do the whole bag of candy thing. Really shake it and crumple it hard just to piss people off, lol. He'd also bring in his own cans of pop or beer, and right at quiet/tense moments, he's open it right up. Ah to be a kid again, we used to laugh so hard.

Hahaha, jman - you've read my mind! :) God, all these things annoy me so much!!! When I went to see Kick-Ass, I had a group of girls sitting in front of me leaning over to each other asking questions and talking while there was a guy behind me who kept repeating lines! (for example, the line where Nic Cage call Kick-Ass, "Ass-Kick"!) That was during the Easter Holiday's over here and the main reason I always try to go to the cinema during the week when it's early - peace and quiet!

Guys, check out my X-CLUB Fan Cast!!! Just click the link! PLEASE!!! ;D

How about the people that sneak in cans of soda or beer? I don't have an issue with that until they drop it and you hear it roll all the way down the theater.

you know what you forgot to put, is the stuff the people working there hate about all of you. As someone that works for a movie company I cant stand you guys. I agree with you on all the points but think about us too. Dont come to the movies to complain, we honestly dont give a shit about what you have to say to us or your complaints. After you leave, we all get together and make fun of you. If you want someone to shut up if the theatre, grow a pair of balls, walk over to the guy, and tell him to shut the [frick] up. Your not the only one in the theatre that hates the guy so if you say something you will prob have a few people backing you up. You leaving to come get me to make the guy be quiet will not change anything since we are told to always give the person a warning.

Never go see a Tyler Perry movie in theaters. That's all I'll say.

Pretty good, I agree with everyone of em.

Here are a few more I hate:

1.
Couples making out. I am normally fine with this in theaters, I've done it myself. But when I got drug to see New Moon, I swear to God it sounded like the girl was F***ing orgasming. I mean I feel bad for the guy if the only way he can get his girl off is to have her look at Robert Pattinson, but i hate it when even a bad movie is interrupted. The same thing happened during: Avatar, Shutter Island and Clash of the Titans. THOSE movies were at least decent to good! Have some respect I don't sit in your living room and moan! Reign it in a few notches.

2.
People who talk to the screen. This is fine if you are doing stuff like going as shadow casts at the Rocky Horror Picture Show. In fact it is encouraged to yell out "SLUT!" everytime Janet walks on screen, or throw toast adn playing cards at the screen during certain scenes.

But when I am going to see a new release like last summer me an HAWK saw Transformers 2, every 5 minutes some dumb ass frat boy wannabe would shout out "F*** YEAH!" or whistle whenever Megan F***, i mean Fox would come on screen. That is just rude!

There are others.

If I go to the theater for a movie (which is rare) I go to a morning matinee at least a couple weeks after it has been released. I save money and there are generally only a handful of people in the theater. I tend to only attend movies in the theater that are epic, blockbuster type of movies.

You just described every Black person that goes to the movies. They show up late talking on their blue tooth with two crying babies then they talk to each other during the movie while their kids run around...and they smell like shit.

Its the truth. At least in Michigan it is.
