Chavs in the cinema

I hate the word 'chav', it is elitist and beyond arrogant.

In my experience, it is young girls (and sometimes boys) who are the most irritating in the cinema, and a few times I have had to report people for making noise during a film, at which point they were asked to leave.

I have no problem with eating at the cinema, it is part of the enjoyment of the experience, and I will always have an ice cream or some sweets when I go. Perhaps some people's auditory and olfactory senses are in hyper mode.
14 year old girls shrieking behind me I have no tolerance for, but someone munching on a bag of Maltesers? Please, that's just pathetic.
 
My Mother has been having trouble since "Return Of The King". I got whispered to me "I can't tell who is who. The baddies don't wear hats any more!"

Even the pantomine this year I got "Who is he?" to which I replied "Ade EdmonRABon" to which I got "What's he been in?"
 
Ok I have to say this is one the most disgusting threaRAB I have ever read!

The constant talk about 'Chavs' as if they are a seperate species, with the generalisation of them being on benefits and not being able to afford 'premier seats' is absolutely disgraceful. You all sound like arrogant, insecure people who hae to bring others down in order to feel better!

I'm not saying that you dont get ignorant, annoying people in the cinema that spoil the film - of course you do! However to brand them all as chavs on benefits who will probably throw bleach on you is just as ignorant. You sound like you've taken your facts from rants in the Daily Mail and nothing else. Plenty of affluent, middle class people, who yes, even sit in the premier seats :rolleyes: can be just as inconsiderate in films, whether on their phones or talking to their neighbours.

I have found this the most ignorant, bigoted thread I have read in a long time! :(
 
I don't know if I've said this or not earlier in this thread, but when I saw Valentine's Day on opening weekend, there were two huge groups of tween girls (who clearly weren't old enough to be in there) screaming whenever Taylor Lautner was on, and laughing and shouting all through the trailers.

Also, when the first trailer came on, the middle part of the picture on the screen was missing. I told a member of staff and they told the projectionist, who fixed it. Everybody clapped when the picture came back on.
 
With cinemas being so expensive now, the managers need to wise up to the chav problem. People are already borderline not bothering with the cinema due to having it ruined for them, and with it being so expensive are likely just to wait for it on DVD (or download and watch illegally).

I go to the cinema with my mate quite a lot, and whenever we have any trouble with noise, we make sure it's dealt with by getting up and having a quiet word with the idiots. As we're both quite big, it tenRAB to do the trick...:D
 
I always seem to get one of these couples behind me.

I once had a foreign couple next to me who had the entire script translated to them by a companion. Wait for the DVD and use the subtitles!
 
Only had one bad experience in the cinema when a groups of chavs came in and started mouthing off and throwing thing around. A lady sitting behind her asked them to be quiet but just got a mouthful so I got the manager and got them all thrown out. I heartily recommend taking 30secs to complain folks.
 
My only recent encounter was at a screening of Avatar. About a group of 4 just sat down it was a row of four but two sat down and the other two sat in front but turned around to speak to them why????. Also you know when your really into a film and then suddenly a light just appears in the corner of your eye and distracts you and all it turns out to be is an imaptient chav who feels the need to look at there phone every 5 minutes SOOOO ANNOYING. Anyway they sat there for an hour and a bit and two of them got up and one them decided to say this is rubbish (quite loudly) and tyhey all then got up and one of them kicked there popcorn over the floor and they all left WHAT WAS THE FREAKIN POINT OF SHOWING UP IN THE FIRST PLACE
 
Most of those put within the chav category do deserve the bad press that they get, however I've found on many occasions that these disruptive individuals have come from both working or middle class backgrounRAB. Social class is bullshit to be honest, it's down to the individual as far as I'm concerned. KiRAB or weak-willed/slightly thick young adults have and always will be easily led by each other, whether they live in a council house and has a mum who doesn't work or lives in a nice detached with a mother who always goes for long business trips to Japan for 6 months. Different walks of life that's the way it is, it's unfair to bundle masses into categories because no-one is perfect.

The last film I saw was New Moon, say no more.
 
I went to our local tiny cinema a couple of months ago to see something not very popular at the end of its run at an off peak time (clearly a memorable film...).
My husband and Iwere the only two people in the place.
And we still whispered during the adverts!
 
Here we go again, give the "chavs" a bad name and hang them :rolleyes: There are annoying and bad people everywhere, from all "classes" and all walks of life, why oh why do the "chavs" have to be made the scape goat for everything? It is so insulting and shallow and says more about those making the accusations, than the folk they're aiming it at. :mad:
 
That's what I'm saying cazmac your right, have you read my post in full? Anyone of any class is capable of being annoying, selfish or stupid not just so-called chavs.
