Oh, i get it IA. You're one of those insufferable dickholes who possesses very little self-control and feels the over-whelming need to provide a real-time commentary track whenever you're at a theater.
Shithead, if you want to clown around like you never grew the fuck up, why don't you take your silly ass to Avalon? Laurelhurst is for ADULTS!
I completely agree with Anon. If you paid $32 to see something opening-night in IMAX 3D PhD GHB, sure, it should be understood that people are all here to hang on every word and frame.
But when you drop $3 to see something that, again, has been out for months in a room full of people holding pitchers of IPA, you can't expect it to be free of a commentary track and, I would argue, this is simple viewing enhancement.
Best part of Black Swan at the Laurelhurst was the late-in-the-plot out-loud acknowledgement of "this bitch is bananas!" Thank you, unknown movie enhancer.
Laughter, fine (if something is funny*). "Comments"? No. STFU -- no one wants to hear you yelling advice at the images of people on the screen.
I'm in love with my basic home theater setup because I can avoid going out to the outside world where loud, crass louts ruin everything. The whole point of seeing something in a theater is to try and get absorbed in the film, not to be constantly reminded that I'm in a room with a bunch of morons. The experience isn't supposed to be about *you* vying for attention.
*Throughout most of Tree of Life I had to listen to some guy stifling uncontrollable laughter every ten minutes for no goddamn reason.
Who cares what the cost of the movie is? Maybe it is all these folks can afford. And maybe it isn't The 400 Blows or Citizen Kane, but since they paid, they shouldn't have to endure you trying to be cute loudly during the movie.
SHUT THE FUCK UP.
You're not Mike Nelson or the bots -- shut the fuck up. You're not funny. Save the commentary for home. Laughing, screaming, whatever, fine. A movie theater with paying customers is not the place for you to practice your armchair standup comedy. I have no problem calling you dickwads out.
Unless your the guy who was behind me at Twilight 2 in the Col. Sanders Park (fuck yeah) who giggled and said "Nice jedi hair" in regard to a ponytailed werewolf, you are not funny and should shut the fuck up and die.
Guess what? You only paid $3 too, which means that you haven't paid enough money to open your retarded pie hole. That beer is there to fill your mouth so that the dumb shit words you want to say can't escape. Laughing at laughable shit is fine, but the commentary needs to go unless you're black. Then, and only then, it is acceptable.
I want to take this opportunity to publicly apologize for my behavior at Laurelhurst a few weeks ago. The Captain America ('MERICA!) drinking game got a bit out of hand.
Sorry, i do dislike talking humans at the movies...but... The Exorcist, midnight showing, years ago at the Bagdad. A pitcher of beer, a movie that i assumed everyone had seen, and some laughter. i was laughing at some choice scene's, & told to shut it or leave. Like " SSHHHHH!!!!!" And absolutely serious shit that i could not comprehend, at the time. i guess they were calling on damosa's god, or not. But, it sucked, being called out in a forum that was intended to be fun, & dealing with anal, portland people. Drink, be Merry & Wise.

Maybe if you had the self-control to have kept your flapping cackling trap shut and allowed the other patrons to enjoy a film they PAID to see - just like you - then perhaps you wouldn't have been shut down soo sternly and made a fool of in front of everyone in the theater room. If i were there, i would have done the same thing.
If you want to act like a clown, take your butt to a RedBox!
"Maybe if you had the self-control to have kept your flapping cackling trap shut". Wow, rude much, Damosa?
Actually, my date & i were at the back of the theater giggling to ourselves in the opening scenes.
We were respectful during the rest of the show, but no one else was. So. Yeah, fuck off.

SHUT THE FUCK UP.
Only for the night-time screenings. The 4:00 - 4:30 weekend shows are still $3.
*or bedroom, or dining room, or screening hall, or what the fuck ever
