What’s Your Worst Moviegoing Experience?

August 17th, 2006 by Larry Smith

It won’t be long before audiences terrorize each other screaming during screenings of Snakes On A Plane (personally, I’m hoping it’s bad to the point of Showgirls-style camp, with midnight showings and friends fighting over who gets to dress up as the snakes and who gets to be Samuel Jackson and who gets to be the pilot).

Which reminds me to plug my friend Bilge Ebiri’s smart and funny film blog for Nerve, The Screengrab,. Bilge blogs about movie deals and rumors, trends, funny film videos making the rounds, forgotten films he loves, and other manna for movie lovers. He also has a weekly bit in which he asks readers for their “Worst Moviegoing Experiences,” like this one by an unhappy Da Vinci Code-goer and the Inconsiderate Cell Phone Lady. Check out Brother B’s blog and add your own cinema horror story.

Also receiving votes today from The Screengrab, a comic featuring a couple of snakes in coach class (scroll down a bit after the link).
