  • people making a video in the theatre doesn't bother me, if anything it's free advertising for the show, people will want to see it live anyway, that's why it's THEATRE....it also isn't intusive..CELL PHONES however : people who don't turn out their cell phones during a show should be kicked out of the theatre ASAP by the ushers...I hate the idiots who think theatre is like going to the cinema..being disconneceted from the rest of the world for two hours won't kill you!!

  • I hate it when cells go off in the movie theater and someone 's went off last night during a steady rain. It went off once and thank god they turned it off...before i jumped out of my seat and beat the hell out of them. Hugh is right, going to the theater is expensive and you come to watch the show, if u want to talk on your phone..then stay the hell home. Have respect to other patrons and to the actors.

  • The simplest thing would be that house management have security on hand at all times for this VERY thing -- and if your phone rings, they come to your seat and they eject you AND EVERYONE IN YOUR PARTY, from the theater, PERIOD. No refund, no raincheck, no nothing. The signs are posted, the announcements are made -- there is NO REASON for that phone to ring, jingle, buzz, light up, etc. And if it does, OUT YOU GO ON YOUR ASS. Plain and simple.

  • Heeeheeeheeeheee. He said barbeque :3 x

  • @Dirkdebruyne Unless you're on an iron lung. Then it will kill you.

  • people making video on the theatre won't stop people from comming... but it's fucking distracting. as well as fucking people taking fucking picures with their fucking phones. I'm sick of it.

    And I work on theatre.

  • I wonder who the person was!!! Wouldn´t it be funny if they revealed themselves on youtube one day :-D ?

  • @CRRPGMykael

    ARRSTRALIAN MATE!!

  • @Dirkdebruyne It's called respect dumbass

  • Saw the new Pirates of the carribean recently. Sat watching the film then this stupid man next to us picks up his phone and starts phoneing people saying "I`m in the cinema, i`m watching a film. Yes, it is the pirates film" Grrr It should be legal to punch these people ><

  • Well, this interview is priceless and funny as all hell, but I think we all know what the elephant in the room is...

    Hugh and the rest of us want to engage in sexual shennanigans with Couric.
