Oh my god society is pathetic.
Let people enjoy a movie for fuck sake. Oh no people clapped because Jack Black said Minecraft boo hoo.
Grow up people if your kids are bothered by crowds and loud noises that bad maybe have a conversation with them that other people exist and have a whole life they wanna live too
Movie theaters rely on an intact social contract for them to work. These movies aren’t filmed in front of a live studio audience, the actors can’t pause to wait for audience reactions. If I spend $20 for a ticket for a single viewing and miss a line because of people talking, being on their phone, air otherwise acting a fool. I’d be upset, I’m sure plenty of people are asking for their money back because of disruptions during the showing. If a theater becomes known for disruptions then they will lose customers and go out of business.
If you want a perfect personal viewing experience don't watch movies in public?
That's such a bad take. Do you not know about movie theaters? Or theaters?
They actually tell you to turn off your ringer before the movie and to be mindful of others.
Next you're gonna be telling people not to expect quiet at a library.
Im sorry but if you go see a participational movie expect to see the audience participate.
Just another reason to never go to a public movie theater.
I'm sorry I think you may be confused about terminology here. Give me an example of a movie which enlists audience participation.
