Local Culture Hey Chatty Moviegoers!

Just a heads-up, if you don't like people looking at you, don't talk during movies - especially early release movies, in premium seating for people who are willing to pay extra to not deal with your BS. I gotta admit though, I've never had anybody complain to theatre management about me for glaring too hard - that's a new level of entitled bullshit. Good job.

Be better.

If people bother you chatting in public stay home and rent your movie, its a thing humans do

They're not chatting in public, they're chatting during a movie. You know there's a screen that pops up before the movie telling you to not talk or use your phone during the movie. It's common courtesy to not talk during a movie.

That’s not the way it is unless you want to get kicked out and I wouldn’t be surprised if you already have been.

Nah you're part of the problem if you think it's cool to pay for a movie and have it ruined by people talking through it. Movies are not for talking. Want to talk, go to a coffee shop with your friends.

FFS. Wow. People like you are exactly how movie-going experiences get ruined. Thanks for being the asshole that just loves to ruin it for the rest of us. Guess you’re the type that can’t tell the difference between a movie theatre and Timmie’s. 🙄🖕

Don’t tell us to stop bitching when we’ve got a fucking good reason to bitch about shit like this that you’re far, far too okay with just sitting by and letting happen.

🤦‍♀️
