Latecomers to screenings and other cinema nuisances

[valda]

At Carnage on, 2 people came in halfway thorugh and the usherette had the torch shining to show them the seats. What is the point in turning up halfway through the film?

Last night at Man on a ledge, a whole heap of people came in late, laden down with food and drink. If you are late, don't bother with the stuff Two of the late comers sat near us and chatted to each other more or less the whole time. I think they didn't have tickets but just walked in.

But the thing that annoys me most is people calling me a greedy bitch for taking popconr from next to me, when they are the ones running down from the back

Just ignore them, Valda...easier said than done, I know. Last night at The Mayfair husband very niftily grabbed two extra packets of chocolates on the way out (with slight detour to the back row). Very happy to be sitting near all the reserved seats as they weren't used so we could snaffle a few extra chocs. And I remember walking up and down rows with pxc there once picking up goody bags. We just can't bear any waste, can we Valda!

The fact they were being so vocal about it only shows they're sour losers (of popcorn in this case).

Who to say you weren't gathering up the excess popcorn to return to the virgin rep?

The girl with a flashing light on her phone at Young Adult screening. I wanted to punch her.

I had someone poking my back with their foot consistently at the theatre yesterday, grrr! We were sitting on folding chairs so it wasn't like she was just hitting the back of my seat either. Every time I turned around to glare she'd move her foot and a few mins later it happened again. I finally said something in the second half, but geesh don't people get the hint the first time around??

next time slip your hand down and squeeze hard at the toe end.

I somehow doubt he will get back much more than platitudes but it had to be said.
