am i wrong? isn't there some sort of unwritten code of movie viewing etiquette? yesturday, my wife and i went out on a date. having an almost two year old boy makes 'going on a date'a special, rare thing. so because we are cheapskates, we went to the first matinee of the day (costing us only $4.25 each) to see Meet the Fockers.
suprisingly, the theatre was nearly half full (not bad for an 11:50am showing on a Monday). Regardless, there were plenty of open seats. So the previews come on and I enjoy seeing clips from War of the Worlds, Episode III and some new Vin Deasil comedy (yes, comedy).
The movie is about to begin when all of the sudden...
this older woman, with way-to-much make up on comes and sits down RIGHT NEXT TO ME. Mind you there was an entirely empty row in front and behind me and we were the only ones sitting in our row. does this not break the code of etiquette?
so not only is she sitting right next to me but her furry coat, the size of a large polar bear is all over the place and overlapping into my seat. then, she got up and went to get popcorn, and came back with an old man. they then preceded to stand, in the row, talking loud, trying to figure out who should sit where... but of course, they didn't bother to move down.
and so i went on a date with my wife, and the 65 year old lipstick woman who loves Barbara Steisand and enjoyed too much the sexual humor of Meet the Fockers.
