If they won't/can't get the people to stop, I would request a refund for my tickets which they've done before when they didn't want to be bothered.

Don't hesitate to throw your weight around with management. To hell with them.

I would love to go there, but I can’t get my husband to not look at his phone during a movie.

I don't go to movies much at all, but I recently went to Alamo draft house (one of the new "high end" types of theaters) and they were super strict about tossing people. I would've spoken to a manager. people are such dicks.

Going to a movie theater is low class. It's what people who can't afford theatre rooms do, so it's not surprising that it would be filled with that sort of people

I did this once ( pretty sure I wasn’t the only one). The person was watching people instead of the movie and when I went back to my seat, he stood up and started screaming obscenities at me. The whole theater pretty much got a refund because of him. Needless to say, we stayed for another movie so they didn’t assault us in the parking lot.

I have no problem confronting people in a movie theater. I would have said, “I’ve paid good money to watch this movie without distraction. Please stop talking entirely or leave.”

these were not assigned seats. however there was no other seats except for first row which was not an option. so we were stuck like sitting ducks...blood still boiling!

Haven't been to the movies in forever. Assigned seats? How is that organized?
