if you havent seen this movie yet, i forgive you. i just watched it and it started at 1015 but for some reason i didnt leave the theatre until 115. no, it wasnt because the movie was long, but for another reason.
there was a fight.
..
you heard correct, there was a fucking scrap in the theatre. how the hell do you start a fight in the middle of a movie? i can understand if you’re watching 300 and get a bit caught up and just wanna throw some ‘bows. this was a full on scrap…well, as much of a scrap that a bunch of pinner chinese kids can conjure. so really it was like a couple of grade school kids fighting over the monkey bars.
i’ll put aside the gory (or lack thereof) details of the fight and open conversation over the initiation of the confrontation.
how the fuck do you start a fight in the theatre (in the middle of the movie that is– and even in the middle of dialogs)?
- child 1: “denzel was so right.”
child 2: “no way, his inhumane business practices contradict his opinion of civil rights and discredits him as a corrupt entrepreneurial figurehead in the bronx projects. he should be shot”
child 1: “i disagree. lets fight.” - child 1: “hey man, stop kicking my seat”
child 2: “lets fight” - if someone spilled a drink on me and didnt say sorry, i’d totally mass text all my friends in the theatre and organize a scrap in the middle of the fucking way while people try to watch the movie. i’ll never know what happened between minutes 48-55 of the movie. then when the cops came, between 1:23-1:28.
its too bad that the unprovoked fight was the topic of the post-theatrical commentary amongst all the viewers. i say this only because the movie was actually good. so go watch it.
