AMC locally has started to crack down on patron noise, but most
theaters don't do anything at all, and only a couple of AMC theaters
are trying very hard.

It makes me really angry when some idiot won't shut up in a movie.
Even worse is the idiots who make fun of the movie or laugh at serious
movies.  I mean, if they don't like the movie, why don't they leave?
Most AMC theaters will refund your ticket too.

It probably varies depending on where you live, but in Hampton Roads,
there are a lot of complete animals that ruin movies.
