OT: worst movie theater experiences
i'm in the mood for a good laugh so i figure i'd start one of these threads again.
my worst theater experience was when i went to go see Spiderman 3 in a theater. well of course some dumb guy starts talking on his phone right when the lights go down and the thing starts.
after awhile a guy behind him gets tired of it and asks him to stop. the guy on the phone basically said "fuck off" and then the guy behind LEAPS into the row and takes the guy's phone from him. Then they start fighting, in the aisle, food and drinks are going everywhere and women are screaming.
It took the staff about 5 minutes to take control of the place. it was crazy. everyone got their money back.
share yours below.
His mother dies?
Foolishly, I did not run out half way through the movie.
Fool's rush in?
(Agree with you. That was a brutal movie. On a scale of 0 to Minnesota 2014, it was M00N)
29 million dollars worth of fools according to IMDB.
I once sat behind Patty, the Millionaire Matchmaker, while seeing No Strings Attached in Santa Monica. She was with her 2 friends, and laughed so insanely hard at every single joke (none of which were funny) - almost like she was putting a show on for the whole theater, like, we should know that she thinks this is funny. Stomping her feet on the ground, cackling, with her 2 copycat friends.
Oh, and that movie is also terrible.
Went to watch Ted with no expectations. Was pleasantly surprised, but the dude in front of us just had to explain or repeat every joke out loud while laughing obnoxiously.
Smh. Some people.
Half way through the movie, the power went out, and never came back on. Had to come back another day and watch the entire first half over again to see the second half.
About an hour later I went to get so jujy fruits, and checked again. Turns out that damn kid actually committed, and our coach accepted. Then I sharted all over the inside of my jorts and went home.
True story.
None of that happened.

Seeing it once was about 5 times too many
I don't know, but the new Mad Max is the opposite of terrrible. Do yourself a favor and go see it.
Same for me on the three times, I might go a couple more haha. Probably my favorite movie to see in a theater since Inception came out.
I hadn't seen any of the original ones, so went back and watched those. They're all pretty good with Road Warrior being the best IMO, but none are as crazy action-packed as Fury Road. Really looking forward to the next one.
Can't we just get Beyond Thunderdome?

They pay people to clean the restrooms.
...i once walked into a movie and they wanted over $6 for a ticket, so i walked out and have only gone to about a dozen first run movies in the last 25 years
And every time i'm at the movies i end up wishing i was on a nice comfy couch, with a delicious intoxicating beverage, eating snacks i actually enjoy and most importantly my finger never more than a foot and a half from the pause button.
For me personally it would be going to see Requiem for a Dream. Now, I loved Pi and couldn't wait to see Aronofsky's new film. Furthermore, I had told my GF at the time how I think he is an up and coming director and how this movie is going to be great. Well, I think it's great! But the GF runs out of the theater crying and shit right towards the end. Now I'm stuck between doing the right thing (seeing if she is okay) and finishing the movie. Keep in mind it wasn't a subtle cry, it was like someone had murdered her cat.
I hope you dumped her. Broads today..
/I hope she's not currently your wife.
at the emagine in royal oak. emagine is a nice theater--I like their comfy seats--but I hate their assigned seating policy. They don't really enforce it, and nobody really pays attention half the time, but when people come in late and the movie is crowded, they always expect their to be assigned seating.
well, at mad max, nobody was sitting in their assigned seat and it was packed. this guy comes in 20 minutes late, starts barking at the guy sitting in his seat in the aisle right above mine, and they had a heated argument for about 15 minutes.
I understood that reference. Bravo sir or madam, Bravo.
After ID4 and Men in Black (and a fan of Fresh Prince) i was a big Will Smith fan. Then I went to see Wild Wild West.
Terminator 4, 8pm on a Friday night showing. A couple shows up with two under 10 year old children and sit on the end of the aisle we're sitting in. We basically served as the other border of the area containing their playing children for 2 hours. I should have charged them for babysitting.
