Drunken outbursts, public nudity and nonstop cellphone use disrupt packed theaters. Bad behavior at movie theaters reflect a worrying trend.
Nobody’s quite figured out where everyone’s good manners have gone — and what is exactly causing the current collapse in civility.
When Brandon Thint, 24, went to see “Barbie” at a Cinemark in Austin, Tex., the last 20 minutes of the movie were spoiled for him by younger kids watching YouTube videos near the front of the theater at full volume during “the emotional climax of the movie.” Movie theater policies, in the meantime, are serving as a final line of defense for film fans frustrated by their seat neighbors’ outbursts., guests can discreetly flag unruly behavior by raising an order card to alert staff.
In the weeks since “Barbenheimer” opened in theaters, Pieri said there have certainly been more violations of Alamo’s talking and texting policy, “but that’s because there’s more bodies in the building.”But Alamo did make some exceptions for the release of “Barbie.” Both of Pieri’s venues hosted “Barbie” slumber party viewings where people were encouraged to show up in pajamas.
When Abby Luca, 19, attended a regular Alamo Drafthouse screening of “Barbie” in Yonkers, N.Y., she said her experience was ruined by a visibly drunk group of women who spent the entirety of the movie dancing, having conversations with the onscreen characters and making other loud noises. Though several in the theater asked the women to be quiet, and “the security went over to them, like maybe four times” to tell them they would be kicked out, they received only warnings.
