All that slurping and munching.
Drowns out the sound sometimes, and the smell. Yuk!
I think "yuk" depends on the person. Personally I do like home popped corn the old way, but not the type sold in theaters. If not crowded, I'd just move away from someone who was actually slurping loudly instead of sipping quietly through a straw, but that's just me not wanting an "incident" in a theater (like so many cell phone escalations !) As to if people can't go a couple hours without food, probably can for sure, but I think it might me like a fair or carnival, many people find it part of the experience, just "fun", not because they can't go a couple hours without food. Like a ball game, just kind of part of the experience rather hungry or not...LOL ! BTW, saw Sound of Freedom while at the beach over the 4th. Maybe I'm just "dense", but I can't understand at all how this film got to be so controversial ??? Can anyone, of any political leaning, or any religion, or ANYTHING actually be opposed to the trafficking of children ? Amazing !
