Movie Theater in Texas with strict rules against unpolite guests.
They kicked this bitch out for texting and she had the nerve to call them and leave a message.

They recorded and transcribed the message the customer left and put it on youtube

Plus you can get a 24 ounce beer and a burger and fries for the same prices a popcorn and large soda would be at a normal theater...

I've had so many movies ruined by rude assholes. At one point I stopped going completely to my local theatre because of the bullshit. Bringing your whole family, including three kids under five to a rated R horror movie?! And we wonder why people turned out fucked up...

God damn awesome. I need these guys to open a theatre down here in S. Fla.
Several years ago I actually wound up in a fight in a theatre when I told this group of people to shut the fuck up. Everyone in there except this group of total a-holes backed me up and the cops dragged them out and left me alone. They theatre restarted the flick and we got back to watching like nothing happened.
Seriously though, these guys are my friggin' heroes. Way to have some backbone. And anyone who doesn't like their rules can go somewhere else - no harm in that at all. That is the true "Amearica" and it is disgustingly absent these days.
Gameless (for now)

That...is AMAZING!!! They need to open one of those in Houston! What cracked me up is their phonetic spelling of her retarded speech and that she actually thought that the light from her phone wasn't completely annoying the piss out of all the people around her. Some people these days....

There are 2 in Houston, ones in Katy and ones in West Oaks Mall..
Katy one is decent but nothing beats stumbling out of the Austin one and heading to 6th street. Theres also a similar one up in Humble on 1960 that I used to pass by back when I lived in Kingwood, but its a different company and I cant recall the name.

Thaaaat's pretty interesting because I actually live in Kingwood now
The only theatres I know of though are AMC in Deerbrook mall, Starplex and the Movie Tavern.

I went to KHS also - now I live down near NASA. Its kind of amusing where the KHS people went - Jake is a kraut now, and Skaag turned Canuck.
They have a Star theater off of Nasa Rd 1 that is similar. The best one i've been to so far is probably Studio City Grill off of I-10 and Beltway 8 west.

Hey ending up in Germany and Canada is better than ending up in prison for armed robbery like 4 of our infamous female classmates.. <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.houstonpress.com/1999-09-16/news/nice-girls-with-guns/">http://www.houstonpress.com/1999-09-16/ ... with-guns/</a><!-- m -->
(I just looked at the date and now I feel old).
Kingwoods changed, now they have 2 high schools and the old empty undeveloped cul-de-sac where we used to go drink as kids has houses all over it..

Thanks for sharing, if there was one here I would go.
I freaking hate people using their phones during the movie
