You're at the movie theater and the person in front of you starts texting. What do you do? - GoFuckYourself.com

clickhappy · 11-19-2016, 01:21 AM

I just got home from Arrival (it was great btw) and the guy in front of me took his phone out every 10 minutes to read the screen, then he'd put it in his cup holder, still glowing and not turn it off. It was pissing me off.
I want to know if this bothers other people and what others would do.

I counted that 5 out of the last 8 times I went to the movies someone took their phone out more than once and started texting.
Is this normal now?

Bladewire · 11-19-2016, 01:30 AM

When people do shit like that I'll throw one kernel of popcorn at the back of their head and wait. If they do it again I'll throw another kernel, do it a few times until they get the hint. If they say anything you say turn off your phone or I'm here to watch a movie not watch you text. I was in that situation once and it worked for me, until the old bitch got up all shaky on her walker and got management but hey I got a refund and saw most of Team America World Police for free

look over their shoulder like a serial killer. say that was nice i just beat off to that

CurrentlySober · 11-19-2016, 02:51 AM

I'd shit myself making an unbearable smell and it would force the guy to move... But hey, what would I know?

i cunt a4d 2 go2 the movies anyway...

onwebcam · 11-19-2016, 03:24 AM

Where's the "I haven't been in a movie theater in many years" button?

MiamiBoyz · 11-19-2016, 03:31 AM

If it's a girl you tap her on the shoulder and say, "Hey cunt, I am trying to watch a movie so turn off your fucking phone or get the fuck out of the theater."

If it's a guy you tap him on the shoulder and say, "Hey you fuckin faggot...I am trying to watch a movie here...you can check your fucking Grinder account and suck a dick later or just suck mine faggot."

2MuchMark · 11-19-2016, 09:17 AM

I'd tell him to turn it off, but I wouldn't be too quiet about it.

Fortunately this never seems to happen here (and I go to the movies all the time).

EddyTheDog · 11-19-2016, 09:36 AM

Keep your nose out of his business or move.....

Jigster715 · 11-20-2016, 01:20 AM

If you visit Japan see a movie. You'll never go to a cinema outside Japan again.

beerptrol · 11-20-2016, 05:21 AM

If it's a guy my gf will wait until there's a quiet moment in the movie and say in her regular voice "that guy is looking at gay porn on his phone" if it's a chick "she's looking at dick pics"

King Mark · 11-20-2016, 07:26 AM

Mind your business. Probably checking on kids or checking stats.

Every 15 minutes in a dark theater? They need to go in the hallway for that

brassmonkey · 11-20-2016, 10:54 AM

keep in mind the phone beeps when you are texting

TheDynasty · 11-20-2016, 11:00 AM

i'd move seats if there were some

DBS.US · 11-20-2016, 03:49 PM

Living now in Hong Kong I find it nice going to the movies. Nobody would do anything as rude as texting in a movie theater there.

I'm assuming they had the sound off for the purposes of the thread - It would be a different story otherwise...

No. If he can't sit still and watch a movie for 2 hours he shouldn't be there in the first place, and distracting me from enjoying the movie that I am paying to see.

Canada too! No one texts during movies here. There's a reminder to turn your phone off when the movie is about to start, and people do.

maybe Hong Kong

certainly not the case in Korea...and not the case at all in China

davidCRM · 11-21-2016, 05:33 AM

between B and C. I would sit there but not fully tolerate, kinda hoping he would turn this off. If it's too bright I would change seats if I can.

I'm out of touch, I think my last cinema visit was about 8 years ago..

Awesome........ how are you finding the living in HK?

Don't you find it prohibitively expensive?

Adnium_Ivana · 11-21-2016, 09:44 AM

If it was that often I'd tap on his shoulder and politely say " Hey, don't mean to bother you, but your phone constantly glowing in the dark is really distracting to me and my companion. If it's an emergecy I understand but if not can you please keep it off"

There's no need to be a dick about it

If that person still continues to do it, well nothing much you can do about it since you already asked him to stop

What a pussy you are

PR_Glen · 11-21-2016, 01:50 PM

its pretty rare around these parts. i don't watch a lot of movies that bring in a lot of teens etc so that probably is part of it. If i was at a shitty horror movie it may come up a bit more. Generally someone will let them know gently that they should turn it off, rarely a big deal. we have those quick reminders telling people to turn off their phones now anyway so maybe that helps some?

Arrival was good but a fucking snore, i suggest a lot of caffeine.
