I guess thats reality. People bring their annoying children to movies they shouldn't be watching. I see this as a much greater annoyance than a cell phone.

Not all children are annoying. Just because you were doesn't mean they all are.

My .02 here - - I have no problems with a place like a movie theater installing a jammer, or prohibiting people with infants to come in. If you are worried that you will miss an important call, or are worried about/can't find a babysitter for your youngin', the last place you need to be is a movie theater. Nobody can prove to me otherwise.

Now places like restaurants and office buildings, that is a different story, mainly because you aren't expected to KEEP QUIET AND STOP KICKING MY fuckING SEAT!!!!

That is all.

Well, you are expected to be considerate of others which is all most here are asking.

I just meant the jammer issue as it pertained to restaurants, Captain Obvious.

It is exactly that “my situation is special” that causes the problem in the first place.

"I need to be in contact 24/7."
"My daugher might be injured."
"My wife is in labor, but I really want to see this movie."
"My drug dealer might call, and I am jonesing, man."
"It's only a minor annoyance to you."

Having a cell phone does not mean you have a right to use it when and where you please.

If the owner of a theater wants to allow cell phone use during the movie, then I will exercise my prerogative as a consumer and avoid that establishment. I do not have a special right to overrule him/her and demand that cell phones be banned.

If an establishment installs jammers [and I wish that every single establishment in the United States would do so, but that’s just me], you are free to take your business [and your rude, inconsiderate behavior] elsewhere. Please do.

Just not as special as some folks.

I took the wife to a movie 3 months ago, 1st time in 10 years or close to it.

I didn't think about turning my phone off.... sure enough, the phone rang about 1/2 way into the movie.

Funny, I had this feeling people were looking at me ?

What's up with that ?


I answered it, it was one on our kids, I quickly told them I would call them back if it wasn't an emergency and turned the phone off. The more I tought about it, we had it on for an emergency call only, the kids lets us down.

Many people want there phones on for emergency purposes.

Too many times people call to chit chat.... they should be considerate of others and only call if in an emergency. At least take into the fact of where one is and what they are doing before they call.
