The mkiv Supra Owners Club

People who talk in the cinema (Rant)

Recommended Posts

We went to see Serenity again tonight.

 

About 30 minutes a whale with a bleached blonde perm comes in with her two 'soon-to-be single mum' daughters in tow. Making enough noise to make you think that, hang on, maybe we are in their living room. That would explain why they are so damn noisy.

 

They then talk and laugh all through the film. Managed to catch up with the whale outside. Wasn't hard. The gravitational pull from her Supra-sized butt was impossible to fight.

 

I'm like "Oi, oi", She looks round at me, "yeah you. keep your f**king trap shut during the film".

 

Shes all "what", pulling that kind of 'I'm busted but gonna act innocent' face that only truly stupid scum-people can pull off. I tell her again to keep it shut during the film.

 

Then I'm floored by the quality of her comeback.

 

wait for it, wait for it. It's a classic.

 

She goes "F**k off, you w**ker!" Wow, what repartee, followed combo style by another f**k off.

 

My face says 'is that the best you can do?' while I snort in a derisory manner and go "whatever!".

 

She looks mortified. Thick people really do get offended by 'whatever'.

 

Then we can hear her across the car park as she is retelling events to her chavscum piglets and I'm getting the evil eye.

 

Another reason to never venture into these places. Surely cinemas need some kind of audience vetting procedure to prevent human waste like her and her litter from ruining it for the rest of us. Rant over.

 

I'm off to look at pictures of kittens.

Should have thrown popcorn at her. Seen how many bits you could get in her chavperm before she noticed!

 

I feel people who talk constantly in the cinema have got serious attention problems, where they want to be noticed, or special, as they are most normally boring or moronic (or both!)

Good for you, Mr. RedM. There's a separate area of Hell reserved specifically for people who talk loudly at the cinema (it's right next door to the area for people who take mobile phone calls during a film). They have their eyes sucked out with vacuum cleaners and their shins split with chisels for all eternity. At least, that's what I'm hoping happens to them.

What an absolute scummer!!! Im surprised she could afford to go 2 the cinema, what with all the fags, cheapo vodka and subscription to sky she will have to fork out from her benefits! ........maybe the chippy was closed......or the the local pub wouldn't serve her brats.................so it was the next best thing........

..................I always get wind up when the ppl behind you start kicking your seat. I always look round and stare em out. If that fails to sort it then I just sit upright as much as possible, so that you know you are blocking their view! It's great when you start hearing all the tuts and moans!

There is a great thread on a Serenity forum all about the 'Special Hell'. Nice to know the problem isn't just confined to this island. Apparently it's an Australian thing and people over there know to behave or be sent there.

Tell me about it! Pisses me off .. the insescent coughing fits .. :angry:

When I lived in Dusseldorf - I went to see Spiderman. And this 13yr old kid & his dad sat next to me.

 

Then throughout the film .. the kid preceeded to slurp his coke through a straw .. trying to get the last drop out. Then began to run backwards & and forwards to the karzee!

 

Even tried making growling & strangling noises at him ... seeing as I didn't know the German equivalent for "Shut the fuck up!" - that didn't work either .. he just looked at me as if there was something wrong with me!

You've thought about this far too much!!!

subscription to sky she will have to fork out from her benefits!

 

Yeah well done for speaking out! (that man)

 

I was thinking the same..Sky must have gone down hill or maybe she didn't pay her subscription!

 

I hate the Cinema experience, just the thought of people invading your space, talking all the way through a film, always end up sitting behind someone whos 8ft tall, a couple having sex (obviously cant afford a travelodge)

 

I really really get bugged by people who laugh REALLY loud at the stupid commercials..which we have all seen anyhow a thousand times on the telly, its almost like they feel they have to perform and let everyone know that they have enough brain cells to see the joke!

 

AND..what about these people that sit there through the credits transfixed 'HELLO HELLO its finished I know you want your moneys worth and the credits have taken up some of the budget of the film..but there aint anymore scenes...wait for the sequal'

 

After Schindlers List..I think i was the first to leave...I was on the edge of my seat ready for any slight clue of the credits approaching...didn't want to be caught up in a traffic jam of hugely depressed people, and finding all the toilet rolls in the loo had run out..so i left at a rate of knots on that occasion...i feel like my emotions have been raped, if complete strangers have access to my facial expressions after a sad film....Im weird arnt I :ok:

We usually stay seated until after the credits (or after a couple of hundred people who have felt the need to cram through one tiny door all at the same time have disappeared). We have also seen lots of outakes and extras that are shown after credits that many friends have said they didn't get to see.

 

My main gripe (seeing as we go to lots of kids films) is people with babies in cinemas-you know they will cry so why take them, and when they do cry why sit there and not take them outside.

I used to share similar feelings until I realised that it's a 'free' world and you can't win on this one.

Badly focused lenses (operator asleep), people crunching crisp packets, loudmouths looking for a fight, bad-mannered children, etc etc...

They pay for their ticket and they keep the cinema afloat, and there's more of them too. So if someone has to shut up it won't be them!

 

I've stopped going to the cinema years ago. Shame, because some films really do need the huge screen and full resolution. But the aggro just isn't worth it. And by the time the chavs get bored and stop going to see the film, it has moved onto a shitty little screen that is smaller than your telly.

 

So I get them on DVD as soon as they're out for rental and watch them full blast in my own environment with my own amplifiers and subwoofers and lighting the way I want it.

 

Much better, and as a bonus nobody's gonna scratch your car in the chav carpark.

Not gonna slip on some drunk's vomit either.

Years ago there used to be a method for keeping scum like that out of the cinema, they were called ushers...... where the hell are they now?

 

I'm in total agreement, people who talk in the cinema should be dragged into the daylight and steaked through the heart, like the blood sucking society leeches that they are.

Someone mentioned ushers at work today. Good idea.

 

Maybe they could be armed too. At the beginning of every movie they could drag the most annoying person from the last screening out to the front and shoot them in the face.

My dear ole Dad used to tell me about his visits to the cinema in the thirties, kids with fleas:looney: ...and much worse anti-social behaviour (especially the Matinees)..apparently if you sat near the front it smelt like a toilet coz some of the kids who used to wet themselves..and it would run down to the front...:giveup:

 

There used to be a bloke playing with his Organ too at the front (a Wurlitzer) which would dissappear into the stage as the organist waved just before the start of the flicks!:Popcorn:

 

I guess that magic is no longer there for people of my Dads Generation...but I have always loved the idea of going to a Drive Through Movie..I know they have them in The summer somewhere but I always miss out!:idea:

I went to see 'Goal' with my g/f's son hes only 6, the place was about half full and a bunch of what i can only describe as 'Cu*ts' come in, about 20 of 14-15 year olds came in and sat a few seats behind us, they were laughing and swearing before the film has started wich i dont mind so much.

A few people had already told them to shut up, anyway the film started and honestly it was like being in a youth club. I turned around and said "girls can u shut up we'r trying to watch a film" big mistake as they started laughing and talking evan more. about halfway through the film i hear someone next to me(im sitting next to the steps) I look accross and there is this kid sitting on the stair next to me laughing, Id had enough i picked up my large coke a just launched it at him, he got up and went bk to his seat, i expected a load of coke or popcorn over me but nothing :D anyway after the film i heard the little twats saying "thank god for that, it was shit".... this made me realy angry as what the fuk did a bunch of girls expect from a football film ffs! they spoiled a good film! Grrrrrrrrr!

I know it is a free world and all that but you do not go to a cinema to chat while watching a film. Have some respect for others I say. Well done that man for saying something.

Last time that happened to me was watching House of flying daggers. 2 blokes and partners just started talking about crouching tiger hidden dragon, comparing fight scenes and the girls started nattering about something one was wearing.

 

So I shouted that the foyer was outside and you can talk there. Got evils from the men and ooooooh from the girls. Then another voice pops out from nowhere and tells them to shut up and the place just starts clapping.

They were quiet for the rest of the film and were the last to leave....:clap:
