Glad to see somebody standing up to rude 'customers' -- hope more will. (love their PSAs!)

That's the funniest thing I've heard in a long time. Bravo!

Serves her right. Movies suck when other people go

That's exactly representative of the human debris that are capable of that type of distraction. They should have posted her name on the screen as well.

That's right! Why are the young people today so easily taken to brutally defacing and mutilating the cherished spirit of the movie theatre, one of the most sacred and prized gemstones on the golden crown of Columbia herself ! A travesty ! A farce !

I had no plans to see a movie at the Alamo Drafthouse, however I think I'll have to make an effort to do so. Austin is just a little over an hour away. I am now motivated to patronize the place.

You know,------------standing back and looking at cell phone implementation in our society---------------The invention has caused nothing but grief ; Texting and talking while driving causes wrecks, talking in restaurants irritates others , Everyone using them at home causes families to not to communicate with others, some kook now says cell phones causes cancer, not to mention the current thread concerning cell phone interuptions in theaters,movies, churches. In addition, due to easy access using cell phones,family bread winners can't even get a vacation without constantly being called from office. Oh for the days when each family had one old black dial-type telephone and it was usually on a party line with 5 neighbors. My college age daughter had 1500 text messages on her phone record last month.

+1! On the other hand, you can now take phone calls when you're "on the can" ("Hello? Oh, hi! Yeah, I was just thinking about you ...").

Good idea, except that unfortunately the students in need of such a class would spend much more time "texting" than listening to their teachers and taking notes.

Exactly!
