Cinema Code of Conduct

[Simba]

I don't see why people MUST have food and drink to watch a movie at the cinema. I go in, sit down and watch it. Its always the same types too, either chavs or fatties.

The last film I saw at the cinema was Who Framed Roger Rabbit, 1988 I believe. You had a smoking section back then, very civilised.

I am neither a chav nor a fattie but a bag of pick n mix and a coke is all part of the cinema experience for me!

Two good things not on it, the chucking of silver paper up into the beam of the film from the projector onto the screen and also chucking poppets at the back of peoples heads, but there again, projectors have gone, I think, and they do not sell poppets anymore and popcorn is not so heavy or aerodynamic and any other substitute is too expensive unless you buy it outside the cinema.

I went to see the new Harry Potter film with my daughter this afternoon. (Mmm - it's not the best film ever).

Someone in front was flicking through pictures of a new born baby for a while. Grrrr.

Wife went with my mother today so i escaped that one

Another rule: check seat numbers properly, you div.
Went at weekend, me Mrs f and one sprog. We had tickets for (let's say) row C, seats 15, 16, 17. (3 together).
Couple were sat in 13 and 14. Another couple sat in 17 and 18. Both couples thought they had 'read' the seat numbers properly (numbers were only shown on one arm). So, there were only 2 spaces between couples, and three of us. I (light-heartedly) tried to resolve situation, but bothe blokes started getting uppity. Turns out couple 2 were wrong... eventually they shifted along one seat each (like it was the most difficult thing in the world to do...seats 19, 20 were free, and that was the end of the row) and the bloke harrumphed all the way through the ads.

It's tiresome these days - I always end up having to tell people off for fiddling with their mobile phones, I find the lit up screens really distracting. Then there's the people behind that keep kicking the seat, they have to be told too. As a professional moany old git I haven't had a smack in the cake-hole yet but I guess it's just a matter of time.

I am slightly different, I'm more likely to become so incensed by others behaviour that I'd bludgeon somebody to death with an usherettes torch...

A colleague of mine got a black eye about 12 years ago for having dared to ask somebody behind him to stop yakking.
