That's too bad. Personally I *Love* going to the movies. Maybe its just your local theatre that is bad?

The big chain here is Cineplex, and they are great. Big screen, big sound, very clean. They encourage people to pickup the garbage left behind to take it when you leave. There are a couple of ushers with big garbage bags that say thank-you, and another to collect 3D Glasses.

Before the trailers run, they encourage people take out their cellphones to play a group trivia game. The question appears on screen and you select the answer on your phone. After the game is over they remind you to turn your phones off. It's a good way to get your attention and delver the message.

Finally there's another on-screen message telling people not to talk or kick their chairs, etc. It really seems to work because no one has talked during a movie or kicked my chair in maybe the last 5 years or so.

Sorry the movie-going experience is sucking for you lately. Try complaining to the theatre next time. As a business owner I'm sure they would like to know.
