Charlize and I went to the cheap R8 movies as we usually do. Unfortunately, we had seen everything on circuit except Mission Impossible 3. Now, I don't mind a good action film once in a while but this really was a mistake - even for only R8. Not only was the movie bad but we were sitting with the worst audience I have every experienced! Aggressive, testosterone-filled (including the women) and noisy! I am not one of those people who get very upset when people are eating or whispering a bit in movie. I tend to switch off to what is happening around me and concentrate on the screen. It has to be pretty bad for me to notice and get annoyed. But in this movie, it was ridiculous! People were talking and others were getting upset because people were talking. Someone had gone shopping or something and was rummaging through their packets looking for who knows what! Everyone was eating something from a very crinkly packet and the guy next to me was chewing himself!? No really, he was. Soon some interesting verbal abuse and threats were flying around the theatre, one aimed at Charlize who was very surprised when the woman in front of her turned around and said something like, "Let me get a look at you so that we can sort this out after!" It was crazy!
I don't know if it was the movie genre that attracted so many psycho's or if it was just a bad movie day but my advice to you is don't go and watch M:I:3. Not only is it a bad movie, but you might be assaulted while you are trying to watch Tom Cruise save the world again.

"Let me get a look at you so that we can sort this out after!"
Ha! Ha! Ha! That's the most hilarious thing I've ever heard! You should've saved up some R8's and gone and seen a play or something! I despise full cinemas, especially on cheap day. My most memorable movies were watched in almost-empty cinemas. I suppose it has a drastic effect on my attitude towards the film. M:I:3 looked nasty, though. I'm going to avoid the couch-jumper from now onwards.
And what exactly does "chewing himself" mean?
Last time I checked stalking was illegal! With your enormous intelligence, the international law was obviously not enough to stop you, was it?
Visit my BLOG in two weeks - it will be "hip" - I promise.
This Tom Cruise/MI:3 incident was actually very predictable,he is such a a moron, so it only makes sense that equally moronic individuals would obtain every opportunity to see the imbasile in action, even if it means threatening serious movie goers like ourselves! Anyhoo - the 3 in mission impossible 3 is always the first sign that things can only go downhill!
I'll be back Wendy...
Sorry for the bum experience! One of my pet peeves is noisy theaters. The other one is...Hey wait You'll have to visiti me again to find out what my other is. Good luck with your next movie outing.
My kids dragged me kicking and screaming to see MI3. I told them I'm not buying a ticket to his movie because he is such a Freak. I told them I will buy a ticket to anything else playing at the same time and then go into MI3 with them. Its my lame-O way of protesting him and his Scientology crazed, purple koolaide drinking, Travolta-freaking cult-O-rama religon. Was Katie Holmes smoking crack when she hooked up with him. I mean come on! She cant be that big of a wallet sniffer is she?
Anyway, I thought the movie sucked also. The ending was just ... strange I thought. And to think I use to like that guy? WTF was I thinking?
I had no plans to watch the film, and your post confirmed the decision.
I know I'm a stupid bloke from England, but what are the "R8" movies?
Hey, I had a chance to slip away for an overnighter in the woods (camping-don't get excited). It was no 5000 km'er but it was fun. I heard turkeys and strange birds, and saw some huge ant hills. You need to go out and see another movie to rid yourself of this experience!
Electric Orchid:
He was chewing his hand. Not like biting his nails or anything - actually chewing his thumb and palm. Quite a disorder!
Twanji:
Ok. Will stay away from your blog for now... You scared me with all that law talk!

Sorry! I forget I have some foreign readers. R8 movies are our cheap movies. R is our currency, Rands and 8 of them is equivalent to just over $1.
Well... Tom Cruise is a scientologist after all. I think being pyscho is mandatory for that, right? Haha.
