Using a cellphone inside a movie theater

Re: Cellphone users

Why all the aggression towards cellphone users? If someone wants to waste their $10 movie ticket by playing with their phone for 2 hours, I'm not mad at them... I feel sorry for them!

and it'll teach them right to use their cells in a gym.... shouldnt be allowed !!!

Some gyms have rules against having cell phones visible. I think the concern is the built-in cameras. But it doesn't seem to be enforced too well at the one I attend.

Re: Cellphone users

It's the glare of their screens that's bothersome. In the darkness of a theater, it can be blinding. Perhaps they think because they're not "talking" on their cellphones, they're not really using them. If I'm close enough, I just tell 'em they're being rude. It's usually enough.

Re: Cellphone users

when folks like that are sitting close to me, I have no problem with telling them to put the phones away. Of course, according to some folks on HT I'm not very nice so I guess that kind of fits my "profile" huh? I just get really tired of stupid inconsiderate folks.

Re: Cellphone users

So are these people tend to be in a group of other people or by themselves?

While I am part of Twitter I normally don't enable the service as a day to day kind of thing. While my cellphone is noramlly on during a movie I don't recieve calls, I think only once did I get a incoming text message during a movie but the notification is kind of brief.

My new favorite nitwits --- people who use their cellphones for texting or playing games during a movie.
