Good point. It didn't used to be as bad as it is now.
I think shorter attention spans, cell phones, and just an overall increase in rude and stupid arse people in the general population has helped make it more prevalent.
Also, maybe the ease of seeing a movie again (RedBox, downloading, etc) makes people less apt to pay attention in theaters?

I will admit that I will occasionally take my phone out to see the time (especially during long arse movies like Zero Dark Thirty, Lincoln, and The Hobbit) but I always try to angle it as to not lit up the room.
