So I just got back from the new Transformers flick at the IMAX theater, and this is not a spoiler thread..... no, no, fellow tankers, this is the greatest of vilations of movie theater etiquette. Worse than talking,worse than texting........FOOT THUMPING!!!! I came into ROTF just before the movie started and to my luck found a single seat beside what appeared a normal man, however he turned into a foot thumper! Shook my seat for 5 minutes at a time, moving back and forth in his seat, this giant ball of anxiety THAT WOULD NOT SIT STILL!!!! Just as I was about to yell "DUDE, CUT THE SHIET" he would stop, and suddenly I was at peace again. Only to have my anger resurface again when his attention span or medications wore off, a neverending emotional cycle today. And it's not even 3 PM yet! So fellow tankers, I beg and plead with you, DON"T THUMP!!!!!

I had one of the worst movie audiences for the first TF movie in 2007. Kids, kids, more kids, and other general loud patrons... It was bad...

I seems like people have less respect nowadays......I don't want to sound like some grumpy old man, but people seem like they are in some rat race now, always in a hurry. People don't hold open doors for others, just seems to be a lack awareness of others and their surroundings.

He seemed like a "normal" dude, had a business shirt with dress pants, like he skipped out of the office to cach some transformers because his wife won't let him at night.....but man,that bugged the crap out of me, like gum chewing with your mouth open

I was lucky. Transformers in Imax. Assigned seating. Sweet stuff. But I have been to a movie where a kid just wouldn't stop rocking his chair in front of me. But I came up with a counter. I just wedged my foot stealthily between his seat and the next. He was dumbfounded when his seat suddenly stopped emulating the star tours experience.
