We had another upside down and backwards trailer during the screening of LXG. It was halarious. It was that new Fido free day commercial so all the looting people were going backwards (so I'm gonna makeup my own word) unlooting and they were upside down. We've had upside down and backwards trailers before, but they haven't been as funny as this one was. Other than that, nothing really funny happens at my theater.

At the start of Charlies Angels 2 the screen was all stretched out making the girls look skinnier then they already are, they fixed it after about 10 mins. Tottaly unproffesional.

When i went to Space Jam way back when it was the last day it was out and also the day it came out on video (go figure) and it was only me my brother in there. we all sat at different corners and we would yell at parts. we also ran around at the end waveing our arms during the you can fly or whatever song.

at the theater i usually go to they rolled this old no smoking in the theater strip with John Waters.
John waters starts by saying that there is no smoking in the movie theater. Then he lights a cigarette, saying that that is complete b.s. to expect people to sit through an entire film with out one single smoke. then he starts talking about flavor country. He does it all with such humor and flair i'll never forget it.

Three of my least favorite things are: crowds, advertisements, and the sound of people eating popcorn.  Needless to say, I don't like movie theaters.  There's a great arthouse cinema in my town, but if I want to go see a first run Hollywood movie, I have to go to the theater that shows ads before the movie.  I absolutely refuse to sit through it.  So I have my accomplices save me a seat, and I nip out to the bar around the corner and get loaded until 5 minutes after the picture starts.  Then I stagger into the theater and find my peoples AS LOUDLY AS POSSIBLE.  I get points if I piss people off.

Ouch. That's harsh. The projecter got set with the wrong lens. It's super hard to change them during the feature. But, it's funny to watch the lens flip around.

We had that happen on opening day of the Matrix Reloaded in a tandem show. The lenses kept flipping from scope to flat to scope, etc... any way we had to give over 300 passes out that night.

Before American Wedding, they showed a little anti-piracy trailer, where they interview a "regular Joe" set painter, who talks about how piracy only hurts the little guys.

There was a guy in the back who booed--and very loudly, I might add.

.....oh ok, I'll admit it--it was me. I also booed during a thetruth.com advertisement, and I actually got other moviegoers to boo along with me.

It was the commercial where 1200 people gather around a tobacco company and "drop dead". A friend of mine said "wow, they all died in the same place, at the same time? That's a coincidence...". It got big laughs from everyone.

In China, the state produced a film about piracy, and since everybody who worked for the government was required to go see it, it was wildly successful.  The government was quite proud of its success until they discovered that around 80% of copies of the film were pirated...

I forgot which movie it was I was seeing, but it was early this year. They showed a preview for Terminator 3, and the preview was simply "T3" zooming up to the screen. That's all it was. After it finished, someone yelled out "Well that tells me a whole fucking lot about the movie!"

I was watching Gigli and some smartass guy on a date stood up, threw a Mountain Dew at the screen, and called Jennifer Lopez a talentless bitch. You should've seen the applause I got.

I was at work thinking about this commercial, and was laughing cuz we don't have it. I walked into Theater 2 to do a theater check and I look up at the digital slides we have (which are kinda like a powerpoint presentation, some are full blown commercials) and see the words "a set decorator". (Do we really need to know all the movies he's worked on and where he met his wife?) Anyway, I stopped dead in my tracks and there it was. The commercial I didn't think we had. I was weird because I had just been thinking about it. Then I saw it at least 3 times again today.
