where's the snow? 0 Posted December 27, 2006 Share Posted December 27, 2006 This is beyond a trivial irritation. I was there ready for the beginning of the new Bond movie and just as it started 3 people - 1 behind, 1 on the left and 1 on the right - started eating popcorn. Very noisily, as they do. It was in stereo. (5.1 maybe). It drove me mad after just a few minutes and I had to find another seat. Even though I ended up right near the screen, it was worth it. Over enthusiastic eating noises annoy me at the best of times, but surrounded by it when you're sat down to watch a movie... Link to post Share on other sites
number9 0 Posted December 28, 2006 Share Posted December 28, 2006 Makes you wonder why popcorn is standard movie food? Then again, if little things like that bother you, then home viewing would be better suited for you. (Don't worry, many "serious" Japanese moviegoers share your disdain for popcorn munchers ) Link to post Share on other sites

rach 1 Posted December 31, 2006 Share Posted December 31, 2006 If I go to the cinema I usually go in the 2nd or 3rd week at a not popular time showing in order to avoid every possible unwanted noise. Usually works. Link to post Share on other sites
