Bad theater experiences

[Kristin]

Hi~

 I don't recall ever walking out on a movie. Although I thought about 
it when a friend and I went to see Pulp Fiction and then again when I 
got dragged to see Valentine this year(at least it was free). 

My bad theater experience came when we went to see The Patriot last 
year. First the sound cut out during Mel Gibson's speech about why he 
wouldn't support fighting the British. Then about half-way through 
the movie a fight broke out. Have no idea what was going on because 
it was several rows behind us. I just know that these two couples got 
into a fight over something one of the women did. So the lights come 
up, the movie stops showing on the screen, but doesn't stop running. 
It took fifteen minutes for them to throw these people out and we 
missed about twenty minutes of the movie. 

What gets me is that out of the 250 or so people that were there, 
only 20 of us went to the manager afterwards to get our money back. 
So at least I got to see two movies for the price of one. 

Cheers,
       Kristin

ooh I just remembered I did walk out of a movie in college. It was 
the midnight showing of Rocky Horror at the Student Union. But only 
because these fools busted open several fire extinguishers in the 
back of the room. It became hard to breath so the guys we were with 
drug us out.
