No, going to complain to the fucking ushers that someone is silently texting before the movie starts is the ultimate in CUNTHOOD

Of course it should. Phone screens give off a ton of light and these idiots are normally so stupid that they move it around being even more distracting.

I get the previews are probably acceptable to use it but there is no defending the use of the phone during the movie. Stay home if you care that much.

I dont think it's inappropriate during the previews and I dont even think it's a big deal during the movie if it's silent.

This guy was looking for a confrontation (as evidenced by his following a woman to the bathroom weeks earlier)


Perhaps the deceased was texting during the previews and getting it done so as to avoid doing it in the movie?

It is bothersome. I shouldn't have to deal with some asshole fucking with his phone during a movie. The light is distracting.

I'm sure everyone here has been in a situation where some bigger or younger or seemingly stronger person was acting like an asswipe. You may have been too intimidated to ask them to stop. And if you did ask them to stop maybe they laughed at you and said, "What are you gonna do about it?" Now, most of us aren't going to shoot those people. But I'm not really sorry when they get shot.

If you have one idiot in front of you who has done it you'll change your opinion.

We had to move once because it was distracting for about 20 minutes. I just said a sarcastic comment to him instead of shooting him.

Going to the usher to complain during the previews is a bitch move no matter how you slice it.


I have never been bothered by a cell phone light.

So, now with that info, you can see why I maintain the position.

Maybe I'm experiencing a disconnect here because as I've mentioned before, I am the owner of a Motorola Razr, shown here,

and the screen doesn't really give off that much light. I could see where an iPhone is practically a flashlight.

Your entitlement issues are't something I shouldn't have to deal with either ... by your own "logic" it makes sense that I would shoot you because I don't think I should have to deal with it.

i went to the movies a couple weeks ago, and down the row from me, maybe 6 or 7 seats away, a teenaged girl texted intermittently throughout the movie and every time she did the light from her phone distracted me. i considered starting an argument that would crescendo into shooting her dead in front of her boyfriend, but decided to simply watch the movie and not make a big fuss over it.

i would disagree with those who say that it is not distracting, but i can't imagine being so distracted by it that i would go nuts and actually start an argument or even say anything. now if the girl was RIGHT next to me or very close it might be another story, that could be a problem, that bitch might have to die.

No, I wont

Nothing really bothers me in a theater unless my view or hearing the movie is disturbed.

Just me though.

If everybody that walked into a movie theater was shot there would be no one here to complain about this, problem solved.

Nope, you're wrong, you shouldn't have to deal with and if you had shot them it wouldn't have been because you made a horrifically inappropriate set of choices but instead it's because she was texting in a pubilc moviehouse ... and for chrissakes she was really asking for it because it was during the movie, not during the previews when the fucking houselights are generally on.

I shouldn't have to deal with some asshole smoking on the ramps when I go to a Sox game. The smoke is distracting, bothersome, and unhealthy for me.

Yet, you started a thread Dbagging the Sox for kicking your buddies out. Can't have it both ways.

Between Florida's racial tension and its gun laws, it's only a matter of time before some black woman gets shot in the head for yelling at the characters in the movie as if they can hear her. And when it happens, Seacrest will be there to say "tsk-tsk, the decisions some people make."

Don't use your phone in a theater.
Don't shoot someone who uses a phone in a theater.

This is the only correct way to look at this situation.

Those guys weren't near anyone and weren't bothering anyone at all. Security hassled them because that's what they do. If they had been blowing smoke in your face, I would agree with you and support you having Darkside shoot them on your behalf.
