To my fellow movie theater visitors: Please shut up and put away your phone.Imagine this: Your most anticipated movie of the year is here. You’ve had your tickets for weeks — maybe months — and the day has finally arrived. You get to the theater early. Your warm popcorn in one arm and a cold soda in the other. You cozy into your assigned seat.And then, it’s not. It could be a rambunctious group of teens, a socially unaware elderly couple, or, movie gods forbid, a family full of kids.
Unfortunately, this scenario has been a reality for me one too many times. Going to the movies often feels like a gamble. If you choose the wrong place to sit and end up next to a noisy group, it could ruin the whole movie. It’s become a serious problem — so much so that it’s become a deterrent for many from even going in the first place.
Then there’s the babies and toddlers. Don’t get me wrong: I have a 3-year-old myself, whom I love to take to the movies. But there is a time and place for it. Recently there’s been a lot of discussion about audience participation in a movie theater, particularly with musicals. There’s been some debate over whether or not it should be acceptable to sing along during these screenings.with his opinion on the matter, saying, “You’ve paid your hard-earned money for a ticket, and you’ve gone into a musical, and you’re into it. Sing.”
