We love to watch movies. Lately, though, we watch many more movies at home via Netflix than we do at a real theater. It’s not the prices or the facilities that bother us, it’s the people. Why can’t people shut up for 2 hours? Same problem at concerts lately too…

I really do like two theaters in town: the Uptown and the Lagoon. The audiences there seem to be more serious about movies and tend to be more respectful than the masses at suburban multiplexes.
