You're just gotten to the last scene in "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" when some jerk three rows over starts talking. Or beeping. Or playing with the velcro on his parachute pants. Do you fume silently? Hiss? Pistol whip him and risk getting that third strike your parole officer warned you about?
No.
Just sit back and let the Cineplex Jerk Ejector do its work, as the powerful spring-loaded seat either propels the offender through the roof into nearby sewage treatment plant, or merely smashes him into the ceiling repeatedly.
An optional gag attachment could muffle the screams.

Rant. Redundant rant at that... |

I think the only answer to this problem is mob justice. |

Don't some theaters have rules against the use of cell phones (just as many courtrooms do)? If not, they should. Perhaps a reminder could be shown on the screen before a movie begins; that's one advertisement on the big screen that many moviegoers would not mind seeing. |
