I've had that problem with Cool Dads. You know, Cool Dad only gets the kid one weekend a month and he's really pulling out all the stops by taking them to see whatever they want, regardless of the rating, so you know he's not gonna ruin all that Cool Dad cred by telling his demon spawn to shut the fuck up and be…

"Jeez, I just meant to shoot you in the arm. What right do you have to die from internal bleeding?"

I think the base-level chatter of a full movie theater (a hundred people breathing, fidgeting, chomping on popcorn) can cover up a lot of the distractions that would really stand out in an empty theater.

You are a hero and don't let anyone tell you different.

This is an Alien vs Predator situation. They're both monsters.

Getting over it like you did is probably the healthiest option, since people being total shitheads with no regard for anyone else does not seem to be a problem that's going away anytime soon, but that's not possible for me. I go to the movies by myself because I like movies more than people. I don't even want to share…

That's really the base issue with the lack of movie theater decorum. People who text or talk are also people who are not annoyed by texters or talkers, so they don't see anything wrong with that they're doing. The problem is that many of them then choose not to take the people who DO get annoyed's word for it. They…

People use that argument all the time, but it's wrong. The true annoyance of people texting in the theater is not in the occasional flashes of light from the phone, but from WAITING for those flashes. You can never really focus on the movie because you know as soon as you start getting into it, this adult-sized…

Yeah, you don't get to decide whether what you're doing is bothering anybody else. You chose to go out in public, where everyone who happens to be in your vicinity has the right to assess your behavior. Even if you think you're being discrete, the light from your big-ass screen could be distracting somebody three rows…

I wish I could say that was a dealbreaker.

Nope. They didn't have CGI in '81, the heyday of the shitty Alien ripoff. It's all latex and goo. Mostly goo.

Inanimate Carbon Rod 2020!

I would also like to point out that previous generations could buy a cup of coffee for a quarter. Runaway inflation is yet another thing the older generations don't want to take any of the blame for.

We spend money like poor people who never expect to not be poor. You take a poor person who believes in his or her heart that hard work and sacrifice will pay off with better days ahead, that poor person will scrimp and save to achieve that goal. You take a poor person who sees no way to better their situation in the…

*farts*

I prefer PWR MTL.

BSTR PNDXTR?

I can see why they made the choices they made, and a lot of people respond to it, so more power to them. I made it through two seasons, which is more than I can say for 90% of the shows the internets drools over. But I realized when Season 3 went live that I really had no interest in revisiting that world. That…

I would agree about their straight comedies, but this seems more like a dramedy, with all the meandering and narrative fat that implies. If this was just a sitcom, I'd be all over it, but I don't have the tolerance for all the drama it seems like every TV show that's not a goofy comedy expects me to swallow. That's…

I lost interest in OITNB pretty fast though. It started out as a comedy with some dramatic parts and quickly turned into a soap opera with some funny parts, which was not what I ordered. I can see this show taking the same route, where the first several episodes are great, fleet-footed entertainment but then it gets…
