Allegedly, after his date spent 15 solid minutes texting in the theater during Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, one Texas man decided he had enough. He filed a suit to wring the cost of the ticket ($17.31) back from his date, who left the theater immediately after the movie had ended.
The woman in question in this little story has asked not to be named, but Brandon Vezmar (the plaintiff) was slightly miffed that she left him at the theater, considering they had driven there in her car.
To be honest, while a small claims suit seems a bit overboard, I can’t blame him. I’ve lost track of the number of times I’ve gone to see a movie and find that some assclown decided that paying to do something they could’ve done outside for free, without bothering everyone, was perfectly sensible.
It costs damn near $40 for two people to go see a movie nowadays (concessions being a whole other ballpark); your ass better be in the seat, and your phone should be silent and in your pocket, damn it. Using your phone in the theater is rude. That’s why literally every theater plays one of these before the movie.
Oh, hey, look, basic human decency!
I don’t give a rat’s ass about your cute little emoji chain text with Shauna, Debby. Turn off your shit and watch the movie you paid nearly $20 to see. Is that really so hard to understand?
