I have Chaparoned my little sister and her friends to more midnight showings of Rocky Horror Picture Show, then I care to elaborate....

BTW do you know how embarrassing it is to be the one guy over 18 accompanying a small cluster of 14-15 year olds to an Rated Movie (Because my sister had blackmailed me)

she must have some heavy shit on you if she blackmailed you into chaperoning 14-15 year old girls....

girls that age are rabid

Let's just say she knew where my "Computer Disks" were.

and if you have to ask which computer disks....

the ones with Japanese Gifs, and my full "lockpic" set etc.

Of couse after I got the "Lockpick" disk back I bulk erased it, and then formatted it.

When I went to see AOTC, people went nuts during the battle between Dooku and Yoda.

At first we just thought that the target will just feel nauseous or such, but when a cop, accidentally getting hit at his neck, was vomiting like hell, we both burst into laugther, and LOUDLY. It was HILARIOUS.

The audiences around us start complaining but what the hell, it was one of our wild days.

Those days.....

Damn, this thread reminds me how I miss Inge so much...

Me and a mate of mine did that almost throughout Starship Troopers.

Anything anyone got splattered with goo, got their brains sucked out, or heaped in bug intestines, we laughed. Lots.

RotK last night was Hella Fun, although some of the more moronic kids (read: mostly 13-year-olds who had no hope _whatsoever_ of getting any sex at all within five years <COUGH>because-they're-total-assholes</COUGH>) tried to ruin it by hamming up the (rather obvious, I grant you that) homoerotic innuendo amongst the Hobbits, Elves, and Gandalf. They even used the word 'Faggot'. Dave, Marquis, and I were almost ready to bust heads. I was ready to tell the nearest one 'You had better be gay if you're gonna use that word'.

It still didn't damp my (or the rest of the audience's) MASSIVE enthusiasm throughout the movie! Everyone loved it!!!

There was a baby at the RoTK showing I went to that was whining throughout the entire first scene with Smeagol. Everyone eventually got angry and started yelling, until someone yelled "GET THE GODDAMN BABY OUT OF THE THEATRE!" That was the end of that problem, needless to say.

I cheered during the Yoda/Dooku fight in EpII, I screamed in pain during Kathy Bates' nude scene in About Schmidt, and I clapped at the end of RoTK.

I saw FOTR when it first opened. At the end when Aragorn decapitates Lurtz, the audience went nuts.

Cheering at the movies? That's just weird.

SylasGaunt · Post by **SylasGaunt** » 2003-12-21 01:37am

Lets see... Clapping at all three LOTR movies

Cheers when Legolas did the Shield-Surf in TTT, and when he brought down the oliphant in ROTK and when Aragorn decapped Lurtz.

And the theater about exploded at AOTC when Yoda pulled his lightsaber

HemlockGrey · Post by **HemlockGrey** » 2003-12-21 01:39am

Incidentally, RotK is the only movie I have ever clapped for. The entire theater clapped as well.

At my viewing, not only did they cheer that part but also when the Clone Troopers came down the Arena with guns blazing.. OOHH YEA that rocked!

Yeah that got a few cheers.. the Yoda thing just totally overshadowed it though

DPDarkPrimus · Post by **DPDarkPrimus** » 2003-12-21 01:50am

When I went to see Kill Bill, the entire audience did a "AWWW, NO!" sound at the end.

Lt. Dan · Post by **Lt. Dan** » 2003-12-21 01:51am

I cheer sometimes. When yoda open up a can of woop ass.

Then I do it to bug people when previews come on.

StarshipTitanic · Post by **StarshipTitanic** » 2003-12-21 02:32am

I could not stop laughing for about 20 minutes during ROTK when I started acting out the boring, drawn out scenes with my hands.

Or when the ghosts were swarming oliphants.

Or when the Duke guy ran off the cliff on fire.

Or when the tiny army let themselves be encircled by Orks.

My stomach still aches from the constant stream of giggles, chuckles, or belly laughs. What a good day...

Slartibartfast · Post by **Slartibartfast** » 2003-12-21 02:59am

The only audience participation I've ever seen is laughing, but that's more a natural reaction (you laugh at a joke). People will laugh at some funny thing, either watching a comedy or Yoda going all Matrix and shit.

OT: I finally saw the dang movie today, and the one thing that confused me right at the start was when the Winchester demonstration thing plays "Bonnie Blue Flag". Since when was San Francisco part of the Confederacy? :\

The only theater rowdiness I've ever observed has been laughing.

The most prominent example I can remember is people laughing during Matrix: Revolutions. At a time when I don't think the Wachowskis were going for laughs.

I went to see RotK last night. There was massive screaming and uncomfortable squirming in seats when Shelob turned up. Unfortunatly it was me who did most of the screaming and squirming.

Demiurge · Post by **Demiurge** » 2003-12-21 11:40am

I have never heard a single cheer and I am not disappointed.

Wait until you experience it yourself. It's one of the only reasons I go to threaters nowadays.

Many, many times there was applause at the end of Moulin Rouge when I worked at the movie theatre.
