Theaters are NOT a place for Cell Phones...

Oh my God, I was in the movie theater and this man behind me had the nerve to answer a phone call DURING THE MOVIE. He didn't even leave his seat, he just picked it up and started yapping. I felt like taking the phone from him and dropping it in the trash... How can someone not be aware in this day of age that all movie theaters ask that you turn off your phone during the movie, or at least put it on vibrate. The only thing worse than that is a crying baby, when the Mother hasn't the nerve to take her child outside. Especially in an R-Rated Movie where they don't belong...

Anyone out there have any similar experiences to share?

doesn't matter to me,i barley go to the movies anyway

This person was texting in front of me and the light was annoying.

People just have no respect, they think they own everything. Kind of like most drivers (like those who don't even look on a 3 way intersection).

Babies are not meant for theaters.

Just go and tell the manager, or tell him to shut the **** up. It depends on how confrontational you are :P

No one likes creating a scene, but at the same time, no one likes having their movie disrupted.

Seriously, if you tell him/her to "shut the **** up" and he/she tries fighting back, the theater will have your back. I speak from experience... especially since their ringtone (it was Lean Back) was driving me nuts.

I answer my phone calls during movies, too.

Get over it.

One time...

I was at the movie with my friend, and the previews hadn't even started yet, but this man was going around getting mad at whoever was on their phone.

The lights were still on and everything. This kid next to me was texting someone and the guy who worked at the movies creepily popped up behind him and was like, "let's put that away right now. Next time I see you on your phone, I'm taking it away."

And he'd just run around telling people to get off their phones.

The kid leaned in and said to me, "is this guy for real? he's so annoying."

I said, "I know right?"

Scary stuff.

The end.

I always leave my cellphone in vibrator mode.... if someone calls I either leave the teather to answer or Ijust hang up on the person (depends who is calling me and how good the movie is) :)

I agree! Why bother watching a movie if you're just gonna text?Kenny789

You know, when I have to look at my phone during the movie, I turn the brightness down as low as it can go and put it on vibrate. Not only that but I angle it towards me so I don't bother anyone during the movie.

You've could've told him to stop using the phone. Also, was he teenager?Dgalmun

Naw, he was about a 30/40+ Latino. Hey I'm not saying anything is wrong with Latinos in general so don't get the wrong idea, but I swear sometimes I see someone doing the oddest, weirdest, most interesting or most inappropriate thing(s).
