Okay, this seriously needs to be discussed. For fucks sake, it seems like common sense to me, but apparently it isn't.

Talking. We need to have a discussion about talking.

If people are sitting in a room, watching a movie, it's perfectly okay if they talk amongs themselves. The general atmosphere of the room generally lends itself as a gauge of how acceptable it is to talk. Even moreso, the other people - and you - are satisfied with a simple "shush". Because hey, nine times out of ten, they're talking about the movie!

But people who wander in? Who are just passing by? For the love of the gods, don't fucking talk to us. It's unfuckingbelievably annoying because you don't shut up with a single shush. You keep trying to get your damn question in. And it's rarely anything about the movie. We don't want to talk about other things when we're in the middle of a fucking movie. We want, if talking absolutely must happen, the following conversation:
You: What movie is this?
Us: < title>
You: Oh. Bye!

NOTHING MORE.

Next person who comes in here and tries to strike up a conversation? I'm going to strangle.
