This was about a month ago but still steams me a little.
Went to the local cinema to see Young Adult. (not a fan of Diablo Cody, but I like Reitman's directing and I love Patton Oswalt - great movie)
I usually go on Monday mornings as it's my day off and there's less chance of assholes being in the theater.
I think you can see where this is going.
Sitting about four feet to my left were two middle-aged women who were old enough to goddammed know better. They proceeded to talk throughout the entire movie, comment on every scene, comment on how horrible Charlize Theron's character was and basically chatter the entire time.
At least three times I shushed them. Every time I was ignored.
I should have gotten management but I didn't want to miss anything.
And I really wanted to follow them out of the theater and loudly proclaim "thank you for commentating during the entire movie - you two must be professional movie critics to enlighten me with your witty diatribe!" - alas, I decided to stay through the credits in case there was a scene after them. (there wasn't) I felt I was denied my vitriol just in case there was a post-credits scene.
Swear to god this isn't happening again. I'll shush someone once. If that doesn't work, I'm getting a damn manager and having them removed. I'm fucking done.
