Movie people

Everyone has a hobby, be it fishing, knitting, boxing, stealing, stamp collecting or anything of that sort. For me, one of my hobbies involves sitting in a dimly lit room with 60 other people watching a movie.
The best hobby in the world.
The only problem with this hobby is the other people. It is common knowledge that I always sit next to the worst person in the theater, its just a fact.
Like how in a conversation, im always pinned against the wall. It just happens.
So we went to go see "Shes the man", and we sat in some of the edge rows. I sat at the end ( to reduce this enivetable occurance ). No one sitting beside me to my left, and one of my friends sitting next to me on the right.
So naturally, I got attacked from behind. I got a groaner. Thats right, a groaner. And an adult groaner too. some chick , an adult with no kids or boyfriend to speak of or to be seen. Going to Shes the man.... And she groaned at everything.
Groaners have several types of groans, theres the

awwwwwwwwww (the cutsie groan)
ooooooohhhhhhhh(bad guy just came on)
mmmmmmmmmhm (don't understand)
emmmmemmemmm(nevrvous, spots of danger.)
ooooooooooooooooooooooooooH! ( dumb facination when something blows up )

So she used all of these

Other types of movie people that have graced my presence are

Boredom People: my brother got one of these in The fantastic 4, he had a water bottle and he clicked it through the entire movie till he turned over and told him to stop being a retard, he was trying to watch the movie..... That was the best part of the movie.

Fooders: The people that bring so much food, eat it all before the previews start and suck on empty straws and play with candy wrappers for the rest of the movie

Explainers: The old couples who one of them keeps falling asleep, and when they wake up, the other one fills them in. And fills them in wrong.

Obnoxious kids/seat kickers - Possibly the worst of them all. You would think they thought everybody payed 5 bucks to hear what they had to say instead of coming to see the movie. With there groups of friends doing a commentary during the entire movie all the while booting the back of your seat until you feel your veins popping out of your head and you wanna turn around a boot there faces.

Haha I just found this journal out of randomness but I thought it was funny. Although you forgot the preteens that go to movies and scream really high pitched at parts that aren't even scary. I've found that I can't even go to horror movies anymore. Then, the people who buy food and eat really really loudly like smacking right behind you and always fidgeting with wrappers.
