I stopped going many years ago!

The last straw for me a group of teens taking photos of each other with a flash, can't remember the movie, but it was about 2008.

Big TV, big sound system, fully loaded media library, pause, rewind and my comfortable lounge.

Why would I pay to be uncomfortable, sticky and annoyed by fuckwits!
