I wish movie theaters aggressively enforced the stfu culture, but the bankrupt Arclight is the only theater I’ve been in where a disruptive person was actually told to get the fuck out.
Yeah, my last few theater experiences weren’t great. Toddlers screaming and adults talking on their phone (note: neither we’re kids movies). I’m sorry, but that’s not the experience I shelled out a bunch of money for. The home 65" might not be as immersive, but it’s quiet and I can pause it to to go pee and that’s a massive win in my book.
