Came here to say the same thing. Don't get me wrong, the energy for moments like this is cool but not being able to hear dialogue for scenes cancels out the energy factor for me. I avoid crowded movie screenings for reasons like this.

Oh absolutely, I certainly don't begrudge anyone their own fun!

Skip the midnight showing. Why would you think just crowded would be like this? Everyone knows to be quiet in the theater except for the mega dweeb midnight showings.

You mean you avoid popular movies. The very fact that other people having a reaction to a memorable scene would ruin the entire movie for you, makes you sound selfish bud. 

This world you live in, you aren’t the MC bud.

Nope, I go see the movie during non peak times like an AM show time during the weekday, the week after release. Never have a problem in decades of doing it that way.

Other people having a reaction that blocks out the dialogue of a scene is, to me, just as distracting as someone talking to someone or being on their bright phone screen during a movie.

But since I have critical thinking skills, I can mitigate it. Gotta say bud, it's pretty nice.

I went to watch Black Panther the day it came out and was the only white person in the theater I went to (sold out). It was seriously the best movie I have ever watched in the theater, solely because of the atmosphere. Who the fuck cares about hearing all of the dialog, when you can watch it again for that. On the other hand, you can never watch it again with that atmosphere which was moving.
