This is very common among Villagers, and I find it very annoying. Maybe I'm just too sensitive to this, but I think everyone knows that this is rude and inappropriate.

I have posted on this before, but today I'm asking for suggestions about how to handle this. Do you experience the same thing? Do you confront the persons and risk their indignant wrath or just try to ignore it and maybe change seats? I'd really like to know what you think.
They are what they are so just ask them "Excuse me, but do you plan to talk during the whole movie?" and if they don't get the message, move to a seat where you can't hear them. My wife and I have done this on several occasions and it will work but be tactful.
