5 things not to do in a cinema

Posted October 27th, 2005 by David

I know im gonna sound like a narrowminded grumpy old man, but I really need to get this of my chest. So here goes:

1. Please dont take your 7 year old buy to watch a movie rated for 11 and up. Firstly its anoying listening to you answering all his questions during the movie, because he doesnt understand whats going on. Secondly, as a proffesional it really hurts the eyes and mind that some parents have next to know knowledge about what a child brain is able to process and what it cant.

2. Is it really nessesary to put your feet up on top of the chair in front of you. No I dont care wether or not somebody sits there, or if you take off your shoes.

3. Dont please dont ask your date why this and that happened in the movie. First of, you dont get very far in your with your hopes on a future relationship, if you sound like a total moron. Oh yes, and its really annoying.

4. I bet you heard this one before. Turn off your bloody cellphone when at the cinema. Is it really that hard?

5. Clean up after you. Leaving your seat after the lights gets turned on again, with a small mountain of cups and candy wrapping left behind. Does not only make you look bad, think of your parents reputation! Didnt thay teach you some common manners?

If you’ve come this far, and read this, I simply thank you for letting me get this of my chest.
