Latecomers to screenings and other cinema nuisances

[McG]

I think it's a frigging cheek when people come to a screening but instead of forming a queue sit in the waiting area, then when a queue is formed, they try and jump to the front of the queue.

Which is why if there is no queue when we arrive we always form one.

Yep. We started one last night at Shitsbury Ave. I never do "wait over there in the bar". I was pretty annoyed when one girl queue-jumped by asking for the loo and then the usher decided to let us all through - after her. But she did turn to the loo first so I forgave her.

Bad thoughts, Beate!

I know which mother f**king c**ting bitch you are referring to exactly. And I think the next time I will start a fight with that c**t when she does that again. She fucks me off every f**king time I see her and her treatment towards her partner fucks me off too although he really needs to man the f**k up. Either her or her OH are definitely on here. Where's my spoiler equipment gone?

At the theatre on Thursday I noticed a new sign. They have unreserved seating so you have to arrive REALLY early if you want a particular seat and even then there is no guarantee that it won't have a "Reserved" sign on it when you eventually enter the auditorium. However, they are now advising people that if they do not arrive sufficiently early, they might not be able to sit with their companions. Maybe cinemas could usefully adopt this approach?

reserved signs and first come first served at the same time.... I saw this happening at certan central london cinema screenings, not the SFF ones..., just premiers or sponsored ones... but it's usually 4-6 seats reserved for vips...that's it... if cinemas put reserved signs on lots of seats during normal SFF, Sky, etc screenings people would just take them off? Even if you leave your bag, coat, mobile phone and your keys there and your friend is out with you at the same time (like ladies, or getting a drink) people just move your staff and sit there! Happenned to me a few times, when you ask Why? they say it's unreserved seating!!!

My main gripe in the cinema - people laughing at films / scenes where laughing is totally not necessary / expected ---- does that make sense...

2 examples - one recent MAN ON A LEDGE and some idiot during KINGS SPEECH

No I don't go to classes and since nobody else on here has mentioned it, I'm sure I don't need any either.
