At the movie theater

This is a negative complaining post about going to the movie theaters =) 

I have always loved to go see movies as probably everyone does. Recently I haven't gone too often, since I have become super stingy about using money. I'd say we go to the movies 2 times a year with the bf. I wanted to go see Jungle Book, since I love Disney stuff. So we decided now is the time, since we had free time and had a mini date lol we rarely do those.

Now, usually when we go see "kids" movies there's always english and danish version available, we choose the english one obviously and all the kids go to the danish one. Well they don't show the danish one here for some reason at all, but I didn't think much of it - until we entered the theater. So many kids, but I was like okay I'm not judging this shit, it's cool. 

Then the movie started. 2 kids with their mommy in front of us keep talking in normal voice. They ask their mom stuff and mom just answers the kids. I was waiting for her to tell them to keep quiet, but nooo. The kids commented stupid shit like "Oh look there's monkeys. The monkeys are attacking. Wow look at that." etc. 

There was this individual behind us who also kept talking and occasionally yelling stuff. Those occasions would have been perfect for the parents to say "sshh" but no, they just chatted away with the kid. He was sitting behind my bf and apparently he was kicking his seat the whole time, lovely. One time the kid farted out loud. At the end of the movie he had fallen asleep and his dad had to carry him out. 

My question is: why do you bring your kids to see an english speaking movie when your kids clearly are too young to understand english or read the subtitles? It's probably because the parents wanted to see the movie themselves lol. And I kind of understand the kids perspective, I might also talk if I didn't understand what was going on, but still had to sit through it for 2 hours. But I'm blaming the parents for not schooling their fucking kids how to behave in a movie theater. In finnish we call this "free parenting" and it has a bad reputation. 

My problem is: I don't feel happy paying 100 kr for this kind of shit. As I said I'm very money concious and wow what a downer when my movie experience got so much disturbance. Probably will not be going to the movies in a loong time, since I can just wait a while and see movies at home for cheaper. But it's sad cause most of the time I go to the movies it's awesome. For example Interstellar was amazing to see in a big screen and also We Are Your Friends because all the music was blasting loud! 

I can tell other shitty stories from my previous movie theater visits! Well just the ones I remember now off the bat. One time I was at the movies with my mum and I could smell this weird odour throughout the whole movie. It was a weird version of poop smell, which I didn't enjoy at all. When we left the theater my nurse mum informed me that that smell came from the guy next to us and from his too full poop bag (I'm sorry I don't remember the real medical term right now). 

Then there was this time when a fat guy sat next to me who brought super smelly coffee with him, and he sipped it for 2 hours and breathed very loudly. 

Yeah, most of these things are just small inconveniences which these people can't even help it. And I should know that there can be weird stuff happening when dealing with strangers in a movie theater. I don't know what I'm even trying to chase here. Shouganai! Can't be helped! It's just facts of modern day human life, I guess. 

Okay bye.
