    A cinema in Hull was robbed last night and thieves made off with nearly £9k worth. They were seen leaving with a pick and mix and a large drink each.

    "What should THEATER MODE be?

    Ideally... we can use our phones as we wait for the film trailers to begin. Then I would love it if the projectionist flipped a switch that just shut every phone off in the theater. If you need to use your phone, you'd have to leave the screening room, and your phone would come on. The shut down device should be available to business owners, schools, music concerts, live theater."

    ...

    "The courtesy of acknowledging that we are all paying customers that are coming to be entertained by what is onscreen. If it isn't entertaining you, LEAVE. Don't ruin the experience for those around you. If the movie is so boring, you'd rather text or browse social media... LEAVE. If the movie is so badass that you must tell the world right that second how awesome it is... Save that thought in your MIND. Then, after you've left the theater... share with the world.

    All that said - I do want a phone killing signal that the projectionist or business owner can activate when it's time to pay attention - cuz people need to be treated like idiot children it seems."

      Editing … That's genius, husk. We have Apple Pay, so maybe something like this will be possible. Like a Bluetooth or wifi on theater doorways that disables any compatible phone.

      Editing … it will raise the concerns of like "omg what if we need to call 911" and ye, there was that time someone had a seizure next to me, but if phones were to update to support this feature, then they could just have "Emergency Call" on the lock screen and nothing else :D

      Editing … If you don't adjust for inflation the list doesn't mean much. This one gives you a better idea of how many of the highest grossing films have been recent.

      Editing … Not adjusting for inflation tells you which newer movies grossed more than other new movies and which older movies made so much money that they can compete with what movies make today.
