Actually I didn't get to see it, but now that I have your attention, let me tell about why my night sucked.

Yeah, so I got into the theatre after waiting in line for 2 hours, and even though there was a bit of people in front of me, I was still relaxed because plenty of good seats were available. So it seemed. On approaching any of these seats, I was told they were being saved. There was like eight people in every row, but all the seats were reserved. I shit you not, one row had a person seated on each of the end seats and they were saving the entire row for friends.

The only seats available were in the very front. It was an IMAX, so it just seemed ridiculous to me, so I opted for a refund, which I had to fight for.

I don't have a problem with saving a seat for one or two friends, but the sheer amount be saved per person was ridiculous. Wait in the fucking line with the rest of us. Someone tell me I'm not crazy for being upset about this.

Also, I guess I could have just said fuck it and took one, but there's something about a sweater in a seat I find intimidating.
 
Dude, the same thing pissed my ladyfriend and I off! People were saving 7 or 8 seats at a stretch... No way! Luckily we found two that we could sit in, but if not I'd have had to take issue and reject the seat saving.
 
I usually ignore excessive seat savings. There is neither seat nor row number on a movie ticket, so I'll so anywhere a body isn't already present.
 
No, people put people in a fighting mood. If you're chatting throughout a movie and refuse take it elsewhere, then I think it's okay for me to throw popcorn at you and watch you look around for who threw it.

Maybe not, but it feels good. Nacho sauce even better.
 
That's just stupid, to save that many seats, I understan 1-3seats, but a whole row? Here in Finland, or atleast in this town begun with places printed on the ticket, which is quite good, noone can take your seat or save alot of seats :happysad:
 
As much as I hate violence and confrontations, I likely would have started a fight in that situation. I would sat right in the middle of the row where the dudes saving seats were. The funny thing is, they probably wouldn't do anything, until 20 of their friends show up (assuming they're telling the truth, who goes to the movies with THAT many people? I think the biggest crowd of people I've gone to the movies with was 30, when I was like 8, for a birthday party, if you're counting parents too. Aside from that maybe 10 people.) They can fuck themselves. That or got a manager/employee, because that's beyond ridiculous.

If that doesn't work call in a bomb threat/pull fire alarm, don't run too far, you get the best seat upon return. I think this works. If it doesn't, you at least ruined the movie for them too.
 
;921903']According to the unwritten rules, one person is allowed to save 2 seats, but only until the feature starts.

Theaters need bouncers, honestly. We almost had to fight to save 2 seats for some friends. On top of that, I think teenagers should not be allowed to go to the last showing. Something about a bunch of girls sitting behind me yapping pissed me off. I shut them up for a little while when I said "hey, I payed to see the movie, not hear you". After a while they kicked it off again and some other dude told them to shut up or he would throw them out of their seats.
 
I never thought about bringing my tazer...

But even if I had, I don't think it's the best thing to use on a group of teenage girls.

Wiz: The fire alarm thing does work. If you're out there awhile sometimes they give you tickets for another showing too.
