If people are talking in the movie theater...

behind you or close by - to the point where you can't concentrate - do you or your DH say anything? seems everytime we go to the movies there are teenagers or rude people talking as if they were watching a DVD in their living room. My DH always says something or we go and complain to the manager. We've gotten kids kicked out a few times I mean, we're paying for the movie so we should enjoy it. We've also gotten up and walked out and gotten our $ back too, which is a last resort!

Re: If people are talking in the movie theater...

It is usually me who says something

I start with the loud sighs...
the "looks"

BUT if they are near me they get the warning FOOT TO THE BACK OF THE SEAT

and if it still goes on i tell them to SHUT THE F*CK UP

Re: If people are talking in the movie theater...

Oh yeah thats another thing...you reminded me If someone is sitting behind you and they are kicking the back of your seat...its usually a tall teenage kid... I get so annoyed. And I do the looks and all. I try not to let my DH catch on though...bc then he becomes macho man and goes through the whole "Stop kicking my wife's seat **** " and I just dont want it to go that way

Re: If people are talking in the movie theater...

that is why we now go to Island 16...the seats are soooo much better than any theater i have been too...
Rarely do i get anyone touching my seat..

Re: If people are talking in the movie theater...

argh! i huff for a while and give them the "i hate you" look.
then i say outloud -but not to their face- "oh my god" or "jesus" or something so they know....

then.......... say soemthign to them.

Re: If people are talking in the movie theater...

I'll usually just ask them to stop what ever they are doing that's rude or annoying. They have to already know they are being annoying and looks and sighs usually do not stop the pestering and just perpetuates my being aggrevated.

Re: If people are talking in the movie theater...

I like Red start with the sigh and over the shoulder scowl. If it continues I try politely asking them to keep it down. If I have to ask again it is not as polite.

Re: If people are talking in the movie theater...

I also do the loud sigh and glare thing, but before long, I will say "excuse me!" to the offender.

Re: If people are talking in the movie theater...

I give them about 5 minutes and I scream at them and remind them that I just paid $10 to see the movie!

Re: If people are talking in the movie theater...

We have also gotten our $ back because kids were talking during the movie. Usually DH and I turn around and give them a really nasty look

Re: If people are talking in the movie theater...

yeah i am usually the one to say something DH is too polite - and i am really into kicking chairs if they are being obnoxious LOL

Re: If people are talking in the movie theater...

i'll ask politely if they could please be quiet...

if it continues, then i just tell them to shut the F*** up!!!!
