Almost all of them.
I watch movies. I do not do other shit while I watch movies. I do not talk during movies. I do not scroll through my phone. I don't miss one frame. I do not miss one sound. And I do not do well when any of that is interrupted. I would rather not watch a movie than have the movie, as it was intended, compromised for me. I am absolutely the person that will turn around and tell literally anyone to quiet down. Parents with kids. That big scary dude in the back. The loud woman talking to her friend that no one wants to engage. Shh.
This the main reason I only see movies at certain theaters and at certain times. If I want to see a movie in the theater I either go at an odd time like 1:30 in the afternoon on a Tuesday (work permitting) or I go to a theater where I know the audience to be respectful.
The Broad Theater, not far from me here in New Orleans, has a surprisingly respectful audience. I saw Black Panther there and there was plenty of laughing and gasping and such that was appropriate to the film but when the film wasn't inducing a reaction from the audience, you could have heard a pin drop. Not a cell-phone in sight. Same exact way with Nope.
I also saw Memoria there. If you've seen it, you know how important silence is to the film. And nary a sound that wasn't emanating from the speakers was heard in that room for 136 minutes. I mean, people chewed their popcorn quietly.
People know that if they come to my house to watch a movie, we are watching the movie, and there will be no talking once the film starts. The most people are allowed to say are things like, "What a great shot" or "God she's good", and that shit better be whispered under your breath.
Anyway, obviously the point is that I cannot keep my shit together if people are distracting me from a movie, particularly if I've hauled my cookies to the theater and also paid to watch the movie. So I would mostly rather watch them at home at this point.
The snacks are cheaper too.
