[Prudence]

I generally dislike people (well, at least sticky ones. In groups. With cell phones.) so we wait until the movie's been out a few weeks and then go to the first showing on a weekend. Matinee prices and fewer people. I used to prefer "adult" audiences to "kid" audiences, but lately the "kid" audiences have been better behaved.

And I've become picky about theaters. I'll only go to the ones with stadium seating and I like to sit in the last row of the first section (usually "ground level" is an aisle midway up with seating above and below). Stadium seating means I won't get stuck with world's tallest person plopping down in front of me five minutes into the movie when I can't change seats anymore. And back row of the front section means no one puts their feet in my hair.
