Haven't seen the movie yet, so I'm not sure.

The guy had a handgun clipped inside his sweatpants.

I gotta say..........that borders on acceptable.

The guy had a handgun clipped inside his sweatpants.

I had a good laugh at that too. :lol:

[Saya]

He should've been more like Al Bundy.

Who does he think he is? Plaxico Burress?

If the talker was discussing his rating of the film at different intervals, then yes.

If the talker was discussing his rating of the film at different intervals, then yes.

They were discussing rating scales. One favored the Fujita scale and the other was dead set on using bicycle tire pressure variants.

Thus, a shot was heard.

I think gunfire is more disruptive at the movies than talking. Unacceptable.

How bizzare is it that this was a Benjamin Button screening???

[Sycophant]

The shooting is unacceptable, but wearing sweat pants to a movie theater borders on supremely reprehensible.

[Boner M]

To be honest, the fact that talking during films will probably see a major decrease because of this story makes the shooting extremely acceptable.

I dunno... I think gunfire only lasts a second.

[balmakboor]

I was going to pop in here and crack a joke, but everybody beat me to it -- and with much better jokes too.

[Spinal]

I dunno... I think gunfire only lasts a second.

Fair point. I was also considering the fact that talking is not likely to make me pee myself.

What if it was during the war scene? It might not even make you budge.

[trotchky]

Not acceptable, but not really a huge deal either. I mean, he only shot him in the arm.
