- adremali, on 04/04/2009, -3/+171I think the Echo is the most annoying of them all, personally.
but they failed to mention the middle school posse. the kids that find it necessary to laugh at things that aren't funny and burst out in applause at random scenes because they think they're clever/funny.
god i hate those *****. - agentsrecord, on 04/04/2009, -14/+174You could have easily rounded off that list to 10 with 'black guy who has a a constant conversation with the screen'.
- inactive, on 04/04/2009, -3/+15110. Fat people who can't breathe inaudibly
- inactive, on 04/04/2009, -7/+131Spanish family at the 10pm showing of R rated movie with an infant....happens all the time
- crsnglb, on 04/04/2009, -3/+106I can't stand when people text during a movie. THE ***** LIGHT IS DISTRACTING! I kicked they guy's seat in front of me when his phone vibrated every 15 seconds as he texted back and forth with whatever douche bag he was conversating with.
- Culero, on 04/04/2009, -0/+95But they came all the way from Spain....
- Comatoast, on 04/04/2009, -0/+77The worst (and sometimes it's the person you're with) is the guy who wants all the mysteries and story arcs explained as the movie progresses. "Wait, why did he kill that guy? I thought he was helping them?" "Why did she take him there? I thought they were in the basment??" Hey man - maybe we'll all find out together IN THE LAST HALF OF THE MOVIE or maybe IN A MINUTE OR TWO - stay tuned, *****!
- Llanowar, on 04/04/2009, -2/+69I'm often like craig the critic.
But only at home though, in the theatre I keep quiet.
Many people on Digg are like the echo.
Why do they always have to quote parts from vids/articles I have just watched? - foltaggio, on 04/04/2009, -4/+67THE 9 MOST OBNOXIOUS DIGG TITLES
- CuedUp, on 04/04/2009, -9/+71This list is all about the people who annoy movie goers; it should include people who annoy the employees of a movie theater. My faves:
1. The guy that can't get the popcorn into his mouth and decides to leave it all over the aisle.
2. The teens that hang out in the lobby all ***** Friday and Saturday night, waiting for the late show.
3. The parents of the aforementioned teens for being such first-rate *****.
4. The lady who can't decide which sugary treat she's going to stuff in her gullet even after she's been standing in line for ten minutes.
5. Anyone who orders diet soda...and a large nachos.
The list goes on... - AsSubtleAsABrik, on 04/04/2009, -0/+54The worst part is that when their kid starts crying they don't take it out into the hall or anything till it calms down. They just sit there while it wails away. People are so unbelievably ***** rude when it comes to their children.
- kevine, on 04/04/2009, -0/+51I like to sit towards the front, and I'm a tall black man, so people usually avoid sitting behind me (long live the stereotype). Plus, I usually have my iPhone out just before the trailers start. However, I always have my iPhone off (no texting or anything), I *never* talk (not even at the screen...somehow I missed that gene), and while I'm tall, I slouch down such that my head is usually below the seat line. I've actually had people kick my head because they put their feet over the seat without realizing I was there.
Anyway, I encourage people to say something politely to people who are annoying in the theater. If they don't stop their behavior, ya, go ahead and throw a coke grenade at them. - Chompy, on 04/04/2009, -4/+53Anyone digging you down has never tried to watch a movie in Baltimore.
- FallingDonkey, on 04/04/2009, -2/+50When douche bags in front of me check their text messages or whatever and the ***** supernova light pops on from their display it makes me go insane and want to smash their face off the back of every chair in the theater.
- Gibletoid, on 04/04/2009, -2/+48how can you sleep when someone is being raped right on front of you?
That guy is harsh. - borez, on 04/04/2009, -1/+4710: Those people who have seen the film before and constantly have to remind their friends that: " Oi mate you gotta watch this bit coming up... it's well good this bit!" and other similar quotes.
- patm1987, on 04/04/2009, -0/+43Why do they always have to quote parts from the vid/articles I have just watched?
Oh man, that's a classic! - BassCadet, on 04/04/2009, -6/+49Not having "black people" in this list is akin to leaving off "Purple Rain" from an article titled, "Prince's Top 10 Albums".
- Origin415, on 04/04/2009, -1/+39The sound of a phone vibrating is like nails on a chalkboard to me.
- ceralon, on 04/04/2009, -2/+39Or in South Florida..
Wen to see the 2nd underworld, the guy kept screaming at the screen "GET YO BITCH"
"***** THAT HO" "YA GET THAT PUSSY *****" every time they kissed or had somewhat of an intimate scene.
The last movie I saw in prime time was these two kids fighting, then his sister got involved, then they fought in the aisle then the manager came, then the cop. Lets just say 10 minutes of the movie wasted. Manager refused to give refund. - xxacefirexx, on 04/04/2009, -6/+42</Christian Bale>
- punchinelli, on 04/04/2009, -1/+3590% of these ***** are little cowards on the inside. All you have to do is tell them to stop in a loud and firm voice and they'll usually stop. If they don't, go get the manager. You'd be surprised how a good dose of embarrassment will serve up a solution to all of this.
- darny, on 04/04/2009, -1/+35mmm hmm oh he right
- Jhiaxuz, on 04/04/2009, -2/+35The main reason, other than price, for not wanting to go to the theaters is because there will be someone on this list there. Often in separate packs of stupid so you get a fine mixture of punks over there acting like retards and bitches in the other corner acting ditsy and talking about boys. You tell them to shut up and they act offended and get angry, as if everyone in the theater is impervious to their ***** annoying antics and they are the only ones who matter.
If I pay $10 for a movie, I expect everyone to quietly shut the ***** up and let me enjoy my time spent for the money I spent. Simple as that. - charlatan, on 04/04/2009, -9/+42Buried for inaccuracy - no black people?
- endustry, on 04/04/2009, -0/+32I also am beginning to wonder if this is indeed an "American thing." Even when I avoid multiplexes and head to the indie theaters here in NYC there is inevitably one of these ***** in attendance even if the movie is some three-hour long Japanese film about death. Conversely, I saw the Dark Knight in Prague in a theater FULL of teenagers who all shut their mouths the second the lights dimmed. I also saw Charlie & The Chocolate Factory in Paris a few years ago (the remake) and the theater was full of children under 10. Not a peep out of one of them.
It just doesn't matter anymore. The A.D.D. generation and a general slacking of social common sense here in America are going to make movie theaters a thing of the past anyway. - OptionalPirate, on 04/04/2009, -1/+33DAMN, MOVIE, YOU SCARY!
- Klowner, on 04/04/2009, -3/+34If only we all had the fortune of falling asleep during that film
- shango5, on 04/04/2009, -2/+32man I wish I could say that's a stereotype that wasn't true but damn if it isn't. It's not all of us but it's more than enough. Especially the older the person is the louder they are.
- JBHasty, on 04/04/2009, -2/+31Or at KFC
- shnuffy, on 04/04/2009, -5/+33These people exist? I suppose Canadian movie theatres have more kindly patrons.
- realchris, on 04/04/2009, -0/+26Don't forget "Bluetooth Headset *****". The guy who refuses to take his earpiece out and now I have an annoying blue light blinking in front of me every 5 seconds.
- Pillage, on 04/04/2009, -2/+28not all black people talk to the screen. But all people who talk to the screen are black.
- david4041, on 04/04/2009, -1/+2710. Girl who repeatedly asks her date why the actor on the screen did what he just did.
(Re tall people: I went to a concert where I sat behind frickin' Wilt Chamberlain. The guy was cool and sat as low in the seat as possible. Very cool to people who came up for autographs and to talk.) - THETEH, on 04/04/2009, -1/+25I remember when I went to see Lord of the Rings, there was a really little kid who would laugh loudly whenever Gollum was on screen. Apparently he thought gollum was supposed to be a Jar-Jar-Binks-ish cartoon character, or something.
- teethandeyes, on 04/04/2009, -0/+24I have ordered a diet coke with large nachos.
I love nachos and dislike sugary soda. I am certainly not going to $3.00 for a 12 ounce bottle of water. - inactive, on 04/04/2009, -1/+23I think the Echo is the most annoying of them all, personally.
- habfan29, on 04/04/2009, -0/+22Yeah, I worked at a theatre for a few years. Even out of uniform saying the right words the right way gets most people to STFU very quickly.
- Raz4Life, on 04/04/2009, -0/+21I totally agree. "Watch this part"? What else would I be doing? I'm sitting in a bolted down chair facing a tremendous screen!
- Ellipsys, on 04/04/2009, -2/+21I suggest going to the "Rich White People Theater (tm)" if you have the chance, regardless if you are rich or white, there is probably one of these in an adjacent area to you. All other threats are minimal, except for a cell phone bitch or two. On the chance I go to another theater, I see all those listed on the article, and one more that seems to be the most annoying of all - "The Translator". Like the echo, this person regurgitates every single line in the movie, but they do it because not one of the five people they brought with them to the unsubtitled English audio movie, speaks English. This running translation is punctuated by questions and commentary from The Translator's friends and associates as well.
- filolif, on 04/04/2009, -4/+23***** #8. Tall people can't help being tall and it's not like you're standing in the theater. Sitting down, most tall people look normal.
Take that part off and leave the big hair part because that is annoying. - radioliar, on 04/04/2009, -0/+18I have another one. The guy jerking off three seats away from you. Yup. Happened to me while attempting to silently laugh my ass off during ***** Knowing of all things.
- uvscwolverine, on 04/04/2009, -0/+18I was in a showing of "Napoleon Dynamite" (no comments please) and there was a girl behind me who felt is necessary to explain what was happening on the screen to the person next to her: "Oh he just threw a steak at Napoleon" "That's their llama, Tina" "The old farmer is paying them out of a big jar of change."
Probably the worst part was during the scene after the credits (the wedding) - every...single...time they showed Deb on the screen this girl would say "Oh, she's cute!" They showed her several times during that scene and she repeated "Oh, she's cute!" each time...and no, the girl next to her was neither blind, nor deaf. They were just stupid.
Oh, and there was also the time I went and saw Spider-Man 2 and some jerk-off kid behind me kept yelling obnoxious comments like "Why doesn't he just steal a nice apartment?" "This is stupid, why did he do that?" I eventually turned around and verbally ripped him apart (I think he was about 12) and he finally shut up. That felt good. - teethandeyes, on 04/04/2009, -1/+19So where in Florida do you live?
- asgardshill, on 04/04/2009, -1/+19Any parent taking their "really little kid" to Lord Of The Rings should be horsewhipped. And so should the moron at the ticket desk who let them in.
- solittledeserve, on 04/04/2009, -0/+17When i saw "no country for old men" there was this 50ish woman who apparently didn't know how to pay attention and would ask her husband after every scene "what did he just do? why did he do that? what's he going to do with that?". I felt bad for the husband because you could tell he was extremely embarrassed, and tried to get her to quiet down, but man she would not shut up.
Also, in another movie, this woman with two kids sits in the very front row (theater was maybe 20% full) and pulls out her cell phone to call her other kid and has a long conversation with them including where to meet her in the theater and to hurry up because the movie looks good and who knows what. A guy in front of me got the manager, who came in to tell her to shut up, and she threw the biggest bitch fit I have ever seen as if she was entitled to be the most ***** annoying moviegoer in the world without consequence. I guess it's no coincidence that I haven't been to a movie theater in months. - Origin415, on 04/04/2009, -1/+17god forbid the movie is subtitled, that just gives the Echo a script.
- HabsChick, on 04/04/2009, -1/+17When I went to see Indiana Jones I had a guy fall asleep and start snoring very very loudly
- OptionalPirate, on 04/04/2009, -0/+15He must get turned on whenever Nicholas Cage looks concerned.
- helluvaguy, on 04/04/2009, -0/+1510. Drake the Douchebag sitting behind your seat constantly kicking for no apparent reason...GTFO of the THEATRE!
