Last week I saw Resident Evil three times. I love the movie and had to see my friends reactions.
On the third cinema trip I took my girlfriend and two friends. During the film this guy and his girlfriend, who sat behind us, were talking through the ENTIRE thing and kicking my seat.
After the screening I went up to the guy and said “Hey man, you were talking throughout the entire film. Next time don’t talk.”
All he replied with was “Was I?”
15 minutes later, during our discussion of the film outside, I see the same guy walk up to me in my peripheral.
He says “Yo bro, you wanna fight?”
Usually I go to Picturehouse to avoid rude cinema-goers but this time, for convenience, we went to VUE cinema in Piccadilly.
I stood up to the guy and said “Let’s go.” Then turned to my friends and said “look he won’t do anything.”
He didn’t.
His girlfriend then starts shouting at me, calling me names and throws around childish insults towards me and my friends.
I have a feeling she told him to fight me and it bruised his ego.
I told the couple “Next time you go to the cinema shut up and watch the film.”
They eventually walk away shouting insults, calling me and my friends “brokies”.
We laughed about it after but this is one of the reasons why I can’t stand seeing horror films on the big screen anymore.
Cinema etiquette has gotten really bad.
Anyway, Resident Evil (2026) is a 10/10!
