re: I have no interest in going to theaters anymore...

Exactly. In a crowded theater I get it. But when the place is practically empty why would someone choose to sit right in front or right next to me?
I would never do that to someone else. Its nice to have some personal space at the movies. Its why I purposely wait until a movie has been out for a while before going to see it.
Like I said, people are assholes now, more than ever.
