What was your worst theater experience?

Went to the movies today and a guy slept thru literally the WHOLE movie. With snoring. The people behind him kept kicking his chair. I have no idea why someone would go to a movie just to sleep for the whole thing.

Well, there was the time there was no sound for the first ten minutes. The theater finally got it fixed, but the refused to restart the movie.

When I went to see Saw (2 or 3) with some friend the screen flickered for the first 15 minutes. Everyone thought it was part of the movie until it left the scary opening part.

Passed out on that nice sticky, crumb covered carpet. I will never be clean again.

I also once demonstrated my superpower of always having my view obstructed to someone by observing that a tall person had just entered the (at the time completely empty besides us) theatre and predicted that they would sit in front of me. They did.

Bonus round: people from my high school saw me at the movies with my younger cousin (who is male and a foot taller than me) and spent the entire movie and the next day at school asking me immature questions about my "boyfriend". Even started a nice story about how I give blow jobs on movie dates. In year 8 at catholic school that is some getting sent to mandatory intervention meetings shit.

When I went to go see Mad Max: Fury Road and they had technical difficulties half way through, to the point where they had to stop the movie and send everyone home. (It was something wrong with where they were streaming it from.) Fortunately I loved the movie so much, I didn't mind having to watch the first half again when we went back to finish the job.

For some reason, our theater played The Lego Movie with really low sound - WAG even sent out a memo to theaters about a week later to theaters saying to straighten up - so I could barely hear it, and some idiot parent wouldn't tell her kid to sit down and shut up.

Luckily I enjoyed the movie so much I didn't mind going back two more times.

Many years ago, I was at a movie with some friends and my mom, and during the ads that air before the previews, the projector must’ve broken—the film froze on a frame of Cher. For like twenty minutes. Every time any of us saw a bad movie after that, we’d joke that at least it wasn’t Cher.

Just recently I went to see Justice League with one of the friends who’d also been there for Cher freeze-frame. We both hate 3D showings, but the only non-3D showing would’ve made both of us late for work. Halfway through the film, the picture split into two columns, each showing a slightly different (to produce the 3D effect when overlaid?) angle, upside down. And played that way for ten minutes. Ten seconds in, we looked at each other and went “Cher!” Justice League was crap even without that fuckup, though.

I was 6 years old the first time I ever went to the movies. My mom and dad picked me up after school and took me to see ET. I had a bladder infection, and I was in so much pain through the whole movie, and I had to keep asking my mom to take me to the bathroom. And I kept hoping she didn't find out what was wrong with me because I was terrified of having to go through more tests.

I still can't watch ET to this day.

The time when I asked someone out on a date, and she brought her own date.

Any time there's screaming babies and mom refuses to step out til they shush. No remorse, no diapers allowed. Babysitter or bust.

I don't remember the movie - something action superhero/Sci-fi/Fantasy with lots of explosions, monsters and bloodshed. And this couple brought their baby/toddler along. Fucking irresponsible because the movie wasn't just inappropriate for such a small child, it was also way, way too loud.

I've had some hilarious experiences with random audience members talking in movie theaters.

The most memorable was when my family and I went to see MouseHunt as a kid. This adult woman talked for the duration of the entire movie. She repeated the phrases, "Oh my God," "Oh Jesus," "what a cute little mouse," and "what a smart little mouse" literally every time the mouse did something unusual. Given the subject of the film, this behavior was pretty excessive, lol.

More recently, when I saw Frozen in theaters, this little kid loudly asked "Mommy, why is she so sad?" right after the parents died. Out of context, I was pretty amused by how the kid seemed kind of sociopathic.
