A Lesson on Decorum (Part I) - At the Cinema






Have you ever been to the cinema, expecting to have an uninterrupted entertainment only to be irritated by some inconsiderate jerks? Remember how there used to be idiots that would answer their phones during the movies, until the community service reminder advert were aired to remind everyone to turn off their mobile phones or put it on the silent mode before every show? I think they need to revise that reminder advertisement and include all other annoying behaviors that have recently become a major nuisance at the cinema...

Maybe the advertisement should include these following points in their community service reminder campaign... It will definitely make MY future trips to the cinema less stressful...


1.

Please make way for people that are trying to squeeze their way through the narrow aisle. Should you happen to have long legs or is slightly on the plush side, it would be great if you could just stand and let the other person through. It's bad enough to not give them a clear access, it's even worse when you let out an annoying sigh when they accidentally tripped on you LARGE foot that was obstructing the way!

2.

Never rest your feet on the chair in front of you, unless it is unoccupied. Try to resist from doing so because it will just irritate the person who is sitting right in front of you, especially if you keep kicking or shaking his/her seat through out the entire 2 hours... How is that person suppose to concentrate on the movie with an irritating idiot behind him/her? How would you like to be kicked and pushed from the back while you are trying to enjoy a movie?

3.

Try and save your personal comments or remarks on the movie until after it ended. Other people didn't pay RM10 to listen to your snide comments or even synopsis about the movie. Or if you really need to make a comment, just whisper it to your partner next to you. Public annoucement are not appreciated especially during the climax of a movie/scene.

4.

Never go for a movie when you are sleepy... especially if you know that your snore can actually cause tremors. That is just plain rude...


What say you?
