Movie watching etiquette? Posted: 25 Apr 2012 08:19 AM PDT Not sure where the best place to post this but I'm genuinely puzzled - I went to the movies last night and across the aisle, about 2 rows back from me was a guy and his (very pregnant) wife. He talked during the commercials, he talked during the previews, 10 minutes into the movie he's still talking. I waited those 10 minutes for him to quiet down and then I turned around and shushed him. He and his wife were visibly startled (from what I could see). Then he started swearing. On and on and on. Talking, just loud enough for me to hear, about how fucking stupid I was, why the fuck was I looking at him, etc. I tried to ignore him and stared at the screen, but after 3 minutes of this I was a little surprised at how virulent he became. The escalation of his response was so strong I tensed; I was actually afraid of this man. So I got up and left, told the ticket takers and they summoned a security guard. I got a refund and booked it out there. My question is this: is shushing still acceptable in the theatre or has social protocol changed? What's the appropriate reaction when someone continues to talk in the movie? submitted by darktask [link] [25 comments]
