Sometimes it takes a serious shock for a 14 year old to connect behavior with consequences. I concur with Mrs. ACW, you probably saved them from getting a future beat-down or worse.

Putting up with the owner's insane harangue is a whole lot better than getting arrested for slapping a teenager. At least he shuts up when the movie comes on. Well, three minutes after the movie comes on. Seriously, what is it with that dick? I’m with Pandora - Bengies Drive-In.

I once confronted people in a movie theater during the movie and it only ended in them having to move to the front of the theater where no one else was sitting, not thrown out. This was after they called me a fucking bitch. And then I had to see them again on the way out while they glared at me and called me a narc. I love being me. I TOTALLY wanna see a movie with you!!!

Turning around & giving the stare of death early ensures that (1) you know who they are, and (2) they know they're pissing you off & consequences are on the horizon. I've read parents of kicky children the riot act during previews. Yeah, I’d be all “yaaay for justice” except that you waited until the parking lot.

It also means I can't watch anything with my mother or sister. I would've loved to see you go off on those little shits and give them a dose of the real world. When I saw "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" with some of my college suitemates, these two idiots wouldn't quit blabbering. One guy in our group wasn't going to put up with it. After saying "Shut up" and "Analyze the fucking movie later", this little exchange shut them up: Them: Tina would love this. My friend: Tina's a c***. Unlike you he had no qualms about traumatizing the little girls sitting in front of us. I HATE people who talk during movies, so I avoid opening night for pretty much everything.

Because this bitch would not shut up. It was so richly satisfying I don't go to many movies. I'm afraid of what I might do. (For the record, the audience laughed, there was a smattering of applause, and I never heard a peep out of her for the rest of the movie.)

When this herd of loud, obnoxious teenagers started throwing candy at the audience in front of them, I waited for them to run out of candy (I think it was Red Hots) but they must have bought the giant-sized bag, because it went on and on. I finally went out to the usher and told him they were bothering everyone (I kept seeing heads swiveling around to see who was doing it). The usher went over and in his wimpy nasal voice told them to stop throwing candy and annoying the audience. They all snickered as he walked away. I sat back down, and about 5 minutes later, they starting up throwing the candy again. Well, I lost it. I got out of my seat and walked in the aisle in front of them and in a LOUD (unwimpy) voice told them that people had paid good money to see this money and sure didn't want it ruined by a bunch of weasly teeagers who give all the other teenagers a bad name, and more, and I think I might have used a few foul words because after I went back to my seat (to applause from the rest of the audience), they never did it again.
