If you go to the movie theater fairly often, then there are chances that you have been in the theater at the same time as somebody who disturbs you multiple times during the movie, in fact, you might just be that person (<_<). This may include the person who talks on their phone, person who kicks your seat, the tall person who sits right in front of you and blocks you, and the people who are by themselves that take up a whole row because they don't want to sit by anybody else. Have you ever encountered anybody like this at the theater? Which bad movie theater habit do you dislike the most? Are you guilty of any of these or of disturbing other people in the theater?
I get annoyed when there are people who keep on talking while the movie is playing. Like, it's okay if you keep your voice down. But if not, then just get out so you don't disturb me. I also don't like it when someone keeps on laughing at basically everything. It's fine when you laugh at a funny scene, but there are those people who laugh very loudly to nothing. I swear, this actually happens a lot.
Little children that laugh way too loudly during 'funny' parts of a movie are the bane of my existence, nothing is more annoying. Thankfully most of the movies I go to nowadays aren't really visited by said children so I haven't had to put up with them recently, thank god.
I've never been annoyed by people, but I do have to keep a careful watch on myself. I end up talking during movies pretty frequently, but in a theater, I try to avoid it, and if I can't keep it quiet.
I'm one of those people who likes to comment on the movie while watching it, but I do watch my voice's volume, so I'm only a bother to the people sitting next to me. I think. I don't go much to the cinema though, so I don't really have experience with annoying people. I'm pretty easy when it comes to others and their habits, so there's not much that will truly bug me.
The people who take their kids to see Deadpool. :| Just... Why?!? Now you have to explain all sorts of shit to them and they're gonna ask about it in the middle of the movie cause they're little kids.
Kids aren't bad. It's the young adults that are the offenders here! They chat during the movies, make sound effects during the film and even spoil it while we watch. That's terrible! Parents who get bored during animations and speak on their phones are also a pain. There is hardly any respect. I wish everyone can be quiet, because my sensitive ears pick up all the noises in the cinemas, even when they're whispering. But I shouldn't say this because sometimes I talk during the movie as well, but really quietly.
That one person that overreacts to every single plot point in the movie. Worst part is, it is usually a black woman who is very, very, loud. Pisses me off every single time.
I entirely stopped going to the pictures/cinema because of the endless disruptions. Also every one there seems to be a couple, which annoys me. Because two bickering people/are worse than one, wish there were none. Mostly the stupid arse laughing gets to me and the OMG's and crap like that. So yep. Haven't been for years now.
One of the things that makes me want to rage is someone on their phone during the movie. Not even talking about like voice or anything, but like just pulling out their phone and the giant light screen that shows to everyone is so annoying to me. I'm pretty guilty of talking during the movies to the person next to me but I do it really quiet and not often. I don't get too annoyed but phones really drive me insane.
People who come in late and decide to talk to each other when they're walking to their seats. I mean, it's okay if you're walking on the pathway but they do this on the seat rows, stopping right in front of me. I also don't like it when I'm going with a friend and they keep trying to tell me what they think would happen next like in my mind I'm all 'okay dude I don't really care I just want to enjoy the movie and figure out the storyline by myself, thanks.' I just don't like it when people talk during movies. Oh man, this. Almost every time I go to the cinema there's this one person who whips up their phone and blinds me with their bright ass phone screen. What's worse is that the do it frequently throughout the movie. It's highly irritating.
Oh man, same. This is the bane of my existence at movie theaters. Why?? Do you have a need to check your phone??? If you really do, at least try to cover it up or something, in the dark movie theater it's really obvious to see phone screens and it's distracting and irritating.
The local cinema is always filled with people over 6"0 that decide sitting infront of shorter people is a good idea when the entire place is empty. Most of the time, these people come in during the adds, so I can make a lot of noise and kick at their seats so they move. I've actually knocked someones hat off in the middle of a movie (Who wears huge hats indoors??).
Little kids who kick the seat, you ask them politely to stop, you glance at their parent, they ignore it, and the kid keeps doing it. Not that this is a personal experience or anything.
I depise people who pull out their phones throughout the movie. It's very distracting to have a bright light glaring at you. I mean come on. How hard is it to turn down your brightness or not take out your phone at all? Then the people actually talking on the phone. Can you go outside? I think the movie would be too distracting to your talking.
I'm quite short, only about 5"1, so tall people are the bane of my existence. The amount of times i have had to ask someone to move one seat down so i could see is insane. Also, that one person who thinks bringing a 1 year old and annoying tons of people in the cinema is much better than finder a babysitter or just going a different day. honestly i'm happier huddled up in a bundle of blankets with my cat most of the time. Also, there's a toy store next to the nearby cinema, so it's very annoying hearing little kids open new toys in the middle of a movie.
Once there was a bunch of little kids who wouldn't shut up and they wouldn't stop using their phones. Other than that, never really had problems.
It never happened to me when I was in movie theatres and I'm usually very quiet when I'm watching the movie to get angry
People who sit in front of you when you have your feet up, idk about in other places but here most people but their feet up on the back on the chair in front of them, common and accepted, and what I never understand is why in a pretty open theater people sit right where others have their feet up, which then they have to take down. It just doesn't make sense when 2 seats over is a whole open row, just put your feet there! People who use their phone or have a smart watch and leave it on. The watches light up when you aren't active for a while or if you get a text so it keeps on going off in a theater and those who use phones to check the time or to distract a child during a movie. People who get up and down to refill their popcorn, if you get a large popcorn you get free refills here, and i get that it is offered for a reason but when you are stuck sitting with other people around you, getting up and down to fill your popcorn over and over is a pain for others. People who have shrink wrapped candy and open it during silent parts of the movie. Just open it before hand or open it during a loud scene, just why at some quiet transition speech scene, come on! Tall people who sit infront of children or short people during a movie. Probably during a kids movie I get more upset with it when a grown 6ft man sits in front of a little 3ft child during a kids movie like Minions or Secret Life of Pets, I get you came to the movie but ruin a kids experience is just a jerk move. I could think of more but I dont wanna go on XD
I hate when people fuckin' respond to what's going on by talking to the movie or movie characters or doing some exposition for themselves outloud. There are some people who do this to TV too (which is also annoying) and maybe these people think that because it's fine to have conversations with Wheel of Fortune that it's also cool to talk to a public film screening. Sometimes I have seen people constantly whisper to their partner or friend or whatever all of this stuff during the movie, which is not really annoying me but it makes me feel really bad for the person receiving all of these revelations when they just want this person to shut up so they can watch the movie but are probably too polite to say anything.
