I went with my wife to see the new Bill Murray movie Broken Flowers, and a little bit into the movie I hear a vibrating noise from a phone about two seats to my left. The woman who owns the purse starts messing around in here purse, obviously to turn off her phone. But then she grabs the phone, opens it up and whispers, "hello?"

So I'm sitting there with my jaw dropped, and she continues to have a short whispered conversation, eventually telling the person on the other line that she's in a movie and has to go.

I can't say I'm too upset about the incident, it was much more entertaining than the movie.

Unless the person owning the phone is a large and scary looking man, I will grab the phone and throw it as far away as possible.

I was at an Asian Culture show back in college and this kid in front of me answered his phone and basically started yelling into it, because the show was really loud at the time. So of course he had to be even louder. And his phone had these weird flashing lights, looked like a damn strobe light.

Freaking Asians. Seriously, we're so damn clueless sometimes.

Oh, also, my gf's dad (not Asian) answered his cell phone in a theater once. But he's a doctor. I think he hung up once he figured out that no one was dying.

Star Wars Ep 1. Some kid in the front row has his phone ring THREE times in the last 15 minutes of the movie. The last time about 5 people just start yelling, he yells "SHUT IT" and then when the movie is over just bolts out of there, as I'm pretty sure he knew that some pissed off nerds were ready to go wild on him.

Is she black?...what do I win?


This type of incident is rising at an exponential rate on my list of "things that annoy me the most". Almost up there with the following scenerio...

1)phone rings
2)owner of the phone pretends like its not his but its obvious that its his becasue its blasting the new 50cent song.
3) phone rings again
4)owner takes phone out of his pocket and then looks around to make sure everyone in the proximity can see that he owns a cell phone.
5) phone rings again
6) owner finally answers


I like to walk up to this guy while he's on the phone and be like.. "wow is that the new <insert brand: LG, Nokia, etc) ###. that is awesome. did you know that it can send multimedia messages?"

Quite cinema. Classic Nokia ringtone starts ringing....

Man picks up comedy-sized mobile phone at back of cinema, and shouts into it:

HI.
I'M IN A CINEMA.
NAH, THE FILMS [censored]

Anyway, it works better visually.... Its filmed "in real life" so the reaction of the people is pretty funny....

this is clearly different than answering thephone, "hello?" i still don't know why it's absolutely pertinent that you answer the phone, what's wrong with a missed call? people call me all the time (phone on vibrate) while i am in the movie and i never answer, i just call them back when i get out.

In Britain they have a good film at the begining of the main show that makes anyone who leaves there phone on look like a wanker. Consequently everyone turns there phone off the moment it ends. This is good because if you do leave your phone on in a cinema you are an utter tool.

Opening night of The Wedding Crashers... obviously the theatre was full. A phone starts ringing quite loudly and the guy in front of me digs through the purse of the women he was with and pulls the phone out. Instead of silencing it he decides to see who it is. At this point much of the crowd is obviously quite annoyed (turning back, looking at him, scowling etc.) So what does he do? Well obviously he answered or I wouldn't be telling this story. Not only did he answer, but he did so in a normal speaking voice and carried out a full 20 second conversation making plans to call the person back after the movie to talk about possibly going to the bar.

Before the movie was over he answered his phone again and yelled at someone who told him to get off the phone. Oh, and he didn't turn the ringer off and went through the whole digging the phone out of the purse/checking to see who was calling routine again when he got the second call.

I thought the whole thing was pretty funny but I think l lot of the other 400 or so other movie goers were quite annoyed by it.


For anyone who knows Minneapolis this happened at the Block E theatre.

I certainly wouldn't do it myself. But if the person had the phone on vibrate, whispered, and kept it short, I would probably excuse her ignorance and just move on with my life.

If you're going to be inconsiderate enough to leave your phone on and answer it in a movie theater, then sit at the end of the aisle so you can take your call outside if your phone rings. Simple.

My rude cell phone behavior story doesn't take place in a movie theater but it's along the same lines. It's nearing the end of the semester in my Business Communications class and it's time for group presentations. I'm sitting there, pretending to pay attention to some boring, half-assed presentation like any good student would when a cell phone starts ringing. Nothing new, it happens fairly often. But this time is different. I hear "Hello? . . . This is not a good time," and turn to see who the [censored] is. I look in time to see the person leaving the room to continue her conversation. It was the [censored] teacher! The door shuts and the whole class is completely dumbfounded. The kids giving the speech stop, and everyone just sits in silence looking at each other for about a minute. The teacher returns, says "I'm sorry" and asks the group to continue. Easily the most rude cell phone behavior I've ever seen.

If you want to be "discrete", turn your friggin phone off. Why do people feel such a need to be 100% available for any random conversation at any point in the day? It's like most people think that tragedy will strike if they're out of mobile contact for 2 hours. What the hell could be SO important that you absolutely MUST answer EVERY call IMMEDIATELY?

People greatly overestimate how important they actually are. Call them back later and stop being a selfish ass. Manners people, I grew up learning them. It's not too late to learn, for most of you anyway.

Btw, if someone yelled at me after I told him to turn his phone off, I'd punch him square in the face. I guess they can call that "mobile rage" or something.

I was on training last week and a Filipino guy in my class had his phone ring, he answered it, and then proceeded to scream at someone in Filipino for about 5 minutes without leaving the room. He finally got off the phone and then called someone else and proceeded to have another 5 minute conversation with this second person (presumably about the first conversation).

I couldn't believe that the instructor didn't ask him to take it outside.

LOL, that is killer funny man.

As to not saying anything -- I think I would have felt freakier not apologizing than saying oop, I'm sorry for being a jackass, but I had no idea there -- and here's a couple bucks for the coke.

(assuming most buys aren't interested in some other weirdo dude's cooties)

Oh, and I shouldn't leave out: Cocaine is a hell of a drug.

Once I was in a movie when this woman walked into my row halfway through the film. I was the only person in the row, and the theater was basically empty, so I thought it was weird that she was invading my space. She kept walking towards me, then sat right down next to me. It was very distracting and I was trying to pay attention to the subtitles and sh|t.

Anyway, she unwraps a Reese's Peanut Butter Cup and takes one out and puts it in front of my face. This was even weirder. I guess I didn't want to be rude, and I do like Reese's, so I took it. And I ate it. Then, a few minutes later, she leans over to say something, and finally gets a look at me. I am not her husband.

She quickly apologizes and says "Oops I'm in the wrong row." And she walks out into the aisle, goes further down a couple rows, and sits next to the man down there. He probably wondered where his Reese's went.

I used to work in a theatre and had absolutely no reservations whatsoever about kicking out an annoying customer. Yes, all of this qualifies as annoying.

If there is a theatre that is full, and 1 person is annoying 200 other people, why would you want to accomdiate that 1 person.

If you can't wait 30 seconds to walk outside and call them back (did you know that cell phones have caller id?) or let them leave a message, then you shouldn't be in a movie, you have more important things to be doing.

LOL I love confused situations like this.

Once I was walking down at the beach and some woman was looking somewhere around me for someone or something, I don't know what, and kept moving her hand around in different ways to shield her eyes from the sun. I looked around pretending to be confused, did a slow Oh well, why not? sort of bewildered shrug, and made with a kind of hesitant wave back at her, as if I had thought she was waving to me and had no idea what the hell she was doing it for. She caught on right away and cracked up.

Misinterpretations can be fun to run with sometimes.

Young kids are just nasty pieces of work today. Parents indulge their bad behavior all their lives and they grow up to be jerks, just like their parents.

There's little more ridiculous and obnoxious than a punk kid still stuck in his anti-parental "You can't tell ME!" mode. Watching them work through their infantile traumas in the real world is really tiresome and unpleasant.

Would, or did?

Murder is rarely appreciated for its ability to build bridges between people.

My greatest cell phone/theatre story took place in a sold-out opening night show of The Players' Club (Ice Cube, Jamie Foxx). None of my friends wanted to sit next to anyone else, but that's not an option in a sold out theatre. I sit down on the inside, and our row is filled up by other moviegoers.

Well, half way through the show, the guy next to me pulls out his cell phone, and proceeds to MAKE A CALL. The gentleman he calls answers, and my neighbor chats for a few seconds before saying:

"I forgot, I'm in a movie, I'll call you back."

He then hangs up before the guy on the other end has a chance to say anything.

Still my favorite part of that film.
