Damn. Apart from being loud he pulled his phone out and tweeted about it in the middle of the movie. Tsk tsk typical
theFinks
Had to leave the theater the 2nd time I watched it because a group of people were using their cell phones as light to see the food they 1/2
theFinks
snuck in. This was after I had already shushed them. Oh and they weren’t black. Ignorance has no boundaries.
groundcontrolto
Black Panther was one of my worst cinema experiences in a while. People talking, checking phones, taking selfies, moving seats repeatedly.
youcancallmesusanifitmakesyouhappy
Alamo drafthouse is amazing for this reason, shut up or ur out is the rule there
zioy
Love the preshows and peanut butter shake there
MayorDeweyMayorDewey
seeing a movie in theaters is a fucking experience that should be respected. your ass talks your ass is getting shushed.
MayorDeweyMayorDewey
and if it aint a kids movie for the love of god please leave the kids at home.

South Africa is not a good place to be a white person right now.
amyisawessome
This woman is literally a shit stain on the country and on behalf of South Africa I'd like to deny her citizenship.

Worst ove delt with is teens screaming during harry potter every two seconds, my friend bent over and told them dobby dies

Not this shit again.
WhatTheDormouseSaid
If the theatre is dark, then how'd they tell the person was white?
Cayowin
In south Africa, people have distantly different accents depending on their race
uptaco
Have you seen a movie in theatre? It gives off enough light that I know if the rando sitting next to me has a herp-mouth.
sykoticflaw
"Oh I'm not persecuted, I'm just an asshole."
ohnoofcourseyourright
Why are they on their phone in the movie? That bothers me as much as talking.
officialgifpolice
The first time I saw the second Guardians of the Galaxy with my sister and boyfriend, some guys were pointing a laser st the screen 1/2
officialgifpolice
It was really annoying and they were making eye contact with us and doing it just to piss us off. After complaining a bunch of times 2/3
officialgifpolice
A staff member finally saw the laser and kicked all 5 of them out. Expensive theatre as Well, so it was extra satisfying. 3/3
LordScrublord
I had zero problems when I saw black panther. It was a decent movie, I was entertained and the audience was considerate of others. Wtf?
TheFastpaws
If you weren't black in my area you stayed away. It was made clear you are not welcome.
TheThingsTheyCarried
I had a different experience. Wasn't too bad, but the black members of the crowd wouldn't stop talking.
MericanNightmare
That's why I skipped opening weekend lol. It's a shit show for any hyped up movie
wekilledbambi03
Guy next to me asked two women to stop talking (granted a little rudely). One threatened to call her boyfriend so they could “pop shit off”
spetamelam
Here in South Africa it was a very lively crowd when I saw it to say the least, but I don’t think anyone was trying to be inconsiderate.
ikagawa
There was a guy in my theater that kept checking his phone. My experience doesn't invalidate yours or the guy in the picture.
uptaco
Same until some douche 3/4's of the way through started planning his ride home.
JakeEnglishx2Pistol
Same here, everyone was chill
SaticoySteel
I had zero problems as well, it’s just a normal movie. This kid kept checking his snapchat, other than that there was no problem
Mack1986
For real though. The amount of audience calls is and cellphone calls taken was fucking insane
flack9099
Must be a shit movie
djsdkdjsk
its kinda weird how literally every other commercial is about cell phones and people just do it anyway
ShoppingCartRodeo
I've had to walk out of movies and be that person who gets a refund because the entire theater crowd was loud as fuck in unison.
ShoppingCartRodeo
It was a horror flick and during the suspenseful build ups, they were whooping and hollering and then screaming when a jump scare happened.
djsdkdjsk
and did they scream for like 10 minutes straight, cause i hate that, i do get a scream but not when they continue screaming.
ShoppingCartRodeo
They did. I was with friends watching "You're Next" there wasn't a quiet moment. I couldn't even hear the movie...
bdawk202020
No, there's a person in the movie theater telling you to stop being an obnoxious asshole & let people hear the movie they paid for. No color
mrread55
The color is black. As in when the lights go down and it’s hard to see anything else but the film because of the lack of light.
Kyuukichi
I can imagine that person writing this very tweet during the damn movie with screen brightness on nuclear

Blacks are racist.
ironfang69
Someone really dumb once said "Blacks can not be racist because they have no power, they can be prejudiced but not racist"
plaguegremlin
You see, this used to be true, but not anymore. Now there is just more reason for them to be racist.
leonbloodbane
Whites, Asians, Indians, everyone is racist
Dubszero
Lots of Natives are too. Understandably so in my opinion.
chardlz
Asians especially. Well, they're more blatant about it in my experience
Raileks
lmfao "Everyone's a racist. Especially those Asians."
chardlz
Definitely ironic but culture is a bit different in Asia where blatant racist comments aren't hushed so it comes off differently than here
TotallyNotADogInTrenchCoat
Especially if they don't know that you can understand their language. He'll Hispanic people are the same way.
somewhatwiseguy
Hispanic people are super racist I don't speak the language but my sister is fluent and has gone off on people for talking shit about me in
edofm
How so? They didn't riot in the streets with Tiki torches tho
AzzyBedlam
Because they don't have to. In many Asian countries xenophobia is just part of life, no one even looks down on it.

Oh wow. South Africa being stupid again. I'm so proud.

Black people are notoriously loud at the movies
jsktrogdor
1/2 To be fair: Certain movies are better with a loud audience. I saw Grindhouse twice, once with a mostly black audience and once with a
DaddyLike
I saw that movie twice in the theater, as well. I wish I could replicate that experience again.
jsktrogdor
2/2 white audience. The movie was exponentially better with people screaming at the screen. But that's kind of the point of that movie.
Mankytoes
People reacting to the film loudly is genuinely ok. It's more people having their own conversation or being on their phones that sucks.
MattyPatty01
In general, people who use their race to excuse their shitty behavior are just shitty people.

I hate when [insert race] do that.

Excusing shitty behavior yea, but if you wanna complain about doing 5 for an ounce of weed when Brock Turner does months I’ll listen to that
YourMomsNewBoyfriend
And no you cannot avoid egregious misapplications of justice by not committing crimes.
somewhatwiseguy
I mean I've been harassed by cops too and I'm white just happen to be really poor and have bad acne so I look like a meth addict
CairoLen
Now imagine how much worse it would be if you were black.
Elaan21
In my experience it comes down to whast type of person society sees as trash. Always poor, but race depends on area. Urban = typically black
Elaan21
Rural = meth/"trailer trash" It's the demographics of poverty
YourMomsNewBoyfriend
That’s an anecdote. Studies are conclusive on the effect of skin color in conviction and sentencing
Elaan21
Criminologist Can confirm.
somewhatwiseguy
I'm not disagreeing just saying that skin color isn't the only factor the way you look dress etc also can factor in discrimination seen
TheseAreMcSqizziesNuts
Some dude yelled at the end of my movie "Wakanda forever." I'm like, he does know it's a fictional place, right?
FiveShiftOne
There's a movement rallying around the movie for its representation of African culture. Wakanda to them is the idea of a black paradise.
TheseAreMcSqizziesNuts
I can get with that.
escalinci
Lots of people did that with Avatar too and that wasn't even a good movie!

Oh, yeah, the Tolkein white guy!

I mean first shows gets cheers and applause for moments but extremely brief (aside from the ragdoll scene in Avengers xD) but yeah. Shaddap
Andalite
That's fine. But like, it wasn't a moment that had been built up to or needed that kind of emotional response. She was literally the only
Andalite
one clapping at a fairly innocuous scene just because one character was black and the other was white
Andalite
they hoot at him to shut him up. I didn't even hear what he said to Freeman's character because she was clapping and I was trying to stop
Andalite
her so she wouldn't bother the other guests in the theater. I used to work there and it would've been so embarrassing to get told off by my
Andalite
old co-workers. Especially since it was only our first date. If we go out again, I'm definitely not taking her to see another movie.
SIRTOXIC13

RedDwarfIV
They hoot. Its only one tribe that does it... but they hoot.

Yeah. They're, uh...a gorilla tribe. So, they hoot.

You can play whatever card you want. If you are an asshat, I'm gonna call you out on it.
AdamWeishaupt23
Unless you are Terry Crews big. Then you can play whatever card you want. You played a "draw four". I'm pickin up five just to be safe.
Penguinsandbroadswords
My brother is autistic. He's also an asshole. Apparently I'm not allowed to call him out on being an asshole, that makes me a "bad person".
KoalasArentReal
I've done after school programs with a bunch of autistic kids. A lot of shit behaviour is from people afraid to get angry at them ever

I literally had a black employee play the race card simply bc I wrote him up for fucking up our product inventory. He quit the next day bc

spookyactionatadistance
I don't get why some people hung on this movie like it was the comming of Black Jesus. The character was created by a white guy. The
Mikeiller
"A white guy?" How about two Jewish World War II veterans. They knew a thing or two about racism and oppression themselves.
Nuggzs
Created by a white guy, yes, but modern writers are often black who do a lot of research into African culture. Movie reps a lot of Afro cul.
TheFastpaws
Which blacks in America are so in tune with & made sense for any isolationist nation.
spookyactionatadistance
2) orchestration by a Swedish dude who went to Senegal and lifted sounds from an actual renown Senegalese musician (with consent). The movie

Jatopian
It's not really "American cinemas" as much as those frequented by a certain subset of American society.
Sammyv17
Which subset? This happened a lot during the Force Awakens. I didn't really care because the movie was louder.
lindabee
They act like it's a live performance. lol
Supernerdtastic
Don't go opening weekend. After that tell em to quiet down or fuck off. Theater mgmt should back you.
LegendInMyOwnMind
If its a funny movie, laugh. If its scary, scream. But why talk throughout the entire movie?
drunkbs
I guess it's appropriate if it's a talkie.
feanoreldar
That's why I only watch traditional silent movies.
whattasteslikepurple
I like to talk during movies, but I go to the drive in where no one can hear you. I keep my mouth shut in theatres.
KWJester49
If me and my wife have both seen a movie I like to talk about it during it. Obviously not for something new to either of us and only at home
PirateFroglet
I know I said out loud This is a Tide ad, after the dude came out of the sand wearing white. Nobody laughed.
DavidBrooker
Sometimes its fun to run your commentary throughout the movie. The polite thing to do is to do so on your couch at home.
2020Gamer
Or go to the latest showing two weeks after release so you can get the whooooole theatre to yourself. Talk and sing away. Did it for Moana.
TicoGuy
And Tweet during the movie that you are probably also talking through
djsdkdjsk
yes but don't laugh or scream for 10 minutes straight, so no once can hear it
Sutashi
Went to a movie and this girl behind us kept screaming and laughing. No break. Like one line was simply "Hi how are you" and she started...
Sutashi
started laughing like it was the funniest joke ever told. It got so bad her date told her to shut up or leave.
djsdkdjsk
yes, those people who laugh for minutes straight at something that's not funny in the least.
Snooj
The last time I saw Zootopia in the theater there was a girl who tried to say as many of the lines as she could along with the movie.
Snooj
After the movie I was tempted to tell her friend that it was really sweet of her to bring someone mentally retarded to the movies.
CairoLen
Probably an autistic kid. A lot of them do a thing called scripting. It's really hard for them not to. And yes, annoying for the rest of us.
Snooj
I thought it might be that, but there were some hints that she was just annoying. For one thing, she was with someone who appeared to be 1-
Snooj
her own age, not a parent. And halfway through the movie she got up to go get something at the snack bar by herself. 2-2
CairoLen
My autistic daughter could do both of those things, easily. She doesn't script though.
giraffesarecoolarentthey
Cuz you paid 8 dollars to go see Poseidon, and it wasn't really that good, and you're on a date, and you try to make her laugh
vixiecat
That’s such a turn off.
leonbloodbane
If you wanna talk with a date don’t go to a movie go to dinner, movie is just spending time together
giraffesarecoolarentthey
Yes dinner with her and her two cousins would have been a blast. This text limit makes it very hard to extrapolate the whole story, silly me
giraffesarecoolarentthey
Forgetting the Imgur Lynch mob flies off the handle, knowing full well they aren't going to get the whole story, from a 140 word comment
Sutashi
No we get it. There was only your group there & you didn't sit together. The point is if you no longer wanted to watch the movie you...
Andalite
Ask her if she wants to finish seeing the movie, and then you go on from there
LegendInMyOwnMind
So because you payed money to see a shit movie and are so dull that you can't think of a better date option, you get to ruin others time?
giraffesarecoolarentthey
Hmmm town of 1,396 people, a sixteen, and a 15 year old with no driver's licenses, jobs paying 5.25 an hour, not a lot of options
LegendInMyOwnMind
I live in a small town so I get that. But its incredibly rude and selfish to talk during a movie. You paid to watch it? Others did too.
giraffesarecoolarentthey
Yes the whole 5 of us. Literally me,her,her cousin, her other cousin, and his girlfriend
giraffesarecoolarentthey
Also there was me, her, her cousin( that we got the ride from) her other cousin, his girlfriend, and their friend. That was the audience
giraffesarecoolarentthey
And we sat well away from them so as not to ruin their time

Neither is a color (both achromatic), and both black and white can contain the whole spectrum depending on the system you're using

And neither are actual human skin colors

Eh, it's been plenty of white people in my experience. Probably depends on demographics.

Probably just has to do with a certain culture. In some areas black people fill it in others white.

True. But one should not ridicule based solely upon race. That there my friend, is racism.
nibbley
imagine going through life totally ignorant of cultural differences
AzzyBedlam
Accepting cultural differences does not mean tolerating people being obnoxious assholes. Shut your fucking mouth at the movies.
nibbley
it literally does in this case, and hey maybe fuck off out the theatre if you don't like it?
DrakeRamorayMD
AdventureRoomba
Just so I’m sure we’re on the same page... you think being loud in a movie theater is a “cultural difference” ?
nibbley
lol these comments are wild 'how dare people be loud at this place i knew people would be loud!!! won't someone love me!'
PostedTheGifNowMainAccountIsBanned
Are you genuinely fucking braindead? YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE LOUD AT A THEATER YOU PATHETIC WASTE OF DNA.
IllusivePanda
You're not supposed to be loud in a theater, they even tell you beforehand on screen if you're too dumb to remember
arumunus
I worked at a theater for eight years. Lobbies may be loud but the auditorium where a movie played was expected by most everyone to be quiet
SnarkyOstrich
Low quality bait
Blze001
You can tell because he's ignoring the comments that point out theaters themselves tell people to shut up when the movie starts.
pygmypufftrampstamp
They literally have PSAs at the beginning of the movie asking people to turn off their phones and shut the fuck up so everyone can enjoy.
idkalan
Why should people leave the theater simply because they don't want to watch the film with the audience making a disturbance?
idkalan
Maybe the people making the disturbance should keep that shit at home and not in a theater
DonnieDangles87
So youre saying it's part of black culture to be a loud, obnoxious, asshole at the movies and everyone must bend to your will at a theatre/
nibbley
either that or 'hey you went to a place you knew would be loud and then complained like a precious snowflake' but hate on i guess
DonnieDangles87
/which is typicially filled with people from a wide variety of cultures... the majority of whom, are not loud, obnoxious assholes???
UncomfortableTruths
Imagine being privileged enough to think skin color (and subsequently the life you come from) has no bearing on the meaning of what you say.
Fahargo
Skin color does not dictate the value of one's words. To think otherwise is racism.
UncomfortableTruths
If you're not willing to read about very basic facts of how life works for folks of color, you have nothing to add to this conversation.
Fahargo
Saying skin color does not dictate the value of someone's words does not discount the differences different people face in life. The 1/2
Fahargo
Value of your words comes from your character. Not what color your skin happens to be. To say your black you don't get an opinion 1/2
DrBama
So skin color should have bearing on what you say?
UncomfortableTruths
Your color has a big impact on whether or not you will be forced to contend with various systemic problems, at least in the US. It's not (1)
UncomfortableTruths
a secret that non-white folks face a lot of hurdles that white folks don't. White folk don't commonly have to worry about whether or not (2)
UncomfortableTruths
a police officer will shoot them for basically no reason. Black folk learn pretty early on that they HAVE to be careful around police if (3)

You think that's bad.. You've probably never met a Puerto Rican
elyk26
This is so ironic, a response to a comment stating you shouldn’t look at color and then this response saying black people are loud.
elyk26
Wait unless I’m misreading the situation if I am I apologize, I understood it as sarcastic, saying that blacks are loud.

But they are...so....

Tbf the healing power of white magic is a stark contrast to the destructiveness of black magic Those not accustomed to it can be taken aback

But I can almost guarantee it was the dark ladies and gentlemen who were noisy.

Y'all are so blatantly fucking racist on here

The original post is stupid, not racist.

When i went to watch Thor Ragnarok there was a white dude in the middle section who laughed like a demented monkey at every tiny joke...
PossibleSarcasm
There's always that one prick who laughs super loud at all the not-funny jokes in the movie.
Tamerdinosaur
Which is sad, because thor ragnarok had bad jokes.
Clitastrophe
I know a guy who laughs frequently and loudly in theaters. But I think he knows it because whenever he took me to the movies he arranged it
Clitastrophe
-so we were the only ones in the theater, it was really nice. I don't like theaters anymore unless they're mostly empty. I'm spoiled on it.
knightofthehokeypokey
...he arranged it so they were empty? Like you only went to old movies in old theaters or he bought out the place?
SeriouslyAwkward
like holy shit man. So i ended up missing half the jokes in the movie T.T I just wanted to share my grief :(
leslieMagnet
That was my friend Buddy. We try to keep him quiet...
missleadinginiformation
I hate those people
SeriouslyAwkward
as you should.
davidjytang
That too, I can believe.
Sionas
Sounds like thinking one race is better than another to me.
ShouldersDeepInAHorse
Luckily it's not racist because it's hating on white people. (Someone screenshot this, i've had mods delete the same comment before.)

I’m not a fan of the 100m. I find the 400m more exciting. There, I said it.

Thankyou for reminding me I haven't read any Discworld books in a while.

The 400m is a torture of a race
SkillerPenguin
Oh for sure.
BatmanRidingANarwhal
Only the first time when you ignorantly think you can sprint the whole thing and then proceed to almost pass out
bbirbb
But.. it is a sprint.. if you can't sprint the whole thing, you shouldn't be competing in it.
Sionas
I respect your decision, personally I like the 50m sprint.
dennisprager
if you were arguing it would be a race war but your civil manner has brought peace in our times thank you
Jburli24
I like the 50m down to the shop to buy yourself a tub of Ben and Jerry's chocolate fudge brownie ice cream :)

800m is the most skillful because it requires both endurance and high speed.
