Why can't people be quiet at the movies?

I know it's a lot to ask for people to be quiet at the movies--especially in these days where it just doesn't seem to be a priority.

My wife and I went to the movies last night and were surrounded by a bunch of rude, noisy people who obviously don't know anyone else exists.

The man in front of us had some soft of nasal problem and 'sniffed' the entire movie,

The people to our left brought in a bunch of individually wrapped caramel candies and opened them (and played with the papers) the entire time.

The people behind us (sitting in a handicapped seat) banged by seat occasionally, then ate from and shook their popcorn bag the entire movie.

A girl in the front row carried on a running conversation for the last 20 minutes on her cell phone.

Perhaps they should have a 'quiet' section in the theater, or a noise free showing.

Vorhees Ritz Last night---there's no recession there

My wife and I went to the Vorhees Ritz last night--there's no recession there, the place was packed. The ticket area was jammed, and many movies were sold out.

I had to park in the back of the lot--that's only happened to me a few time.

The new James Bond movie was sold out---and people were waiting down the hall to get into it.

I did chat with a fellow on the way in--I said there's no recession here.

He said he knew friends who were in business--one a car dealership, and another one who does work with Atlantic City Casino hotels, and he said there October business was horrible.

I told him my November business is horrible as well.
