Re: that was right
Date: 2007-03-16 02:49 am (UTC)Fortunately I sit near the front of the theater, which helps, and I try to see as many films as possible at the Coolidge (the theater down the street) which tends to have patrons who want to watch their movies undisturbed. Speaking of movies, I just got back from Pan's Labyrinth, and I'm feeling motivated to write some movie reviews.. Stay tuned!
Re: that was right
Date: 2007-03-16 02:55 am (UTC)And I agree with the problem of technology changing too quickly. There also seems to be a problem with peoples brains - we ask you not to talk too loudly in the library when you're chatting with other people, so when your phone rings and you start talking loudly, please don't act so shocked when we ask you to take it outside! It's like people can't connect the two etiquette forms and realize that being polite is BEING POLITE! You don't bring a flashlight into the theater, why would you light up your phone??
