Hey Nicole, if I got the theater to myself for every showing I'd go to the theater more often.

If you want to make this closer to the real experience, make sure you include the following in a regular Friday night showing:

  • People talking at full volume to each other
  • teens near the front row throwing food at each other and laughing during quiet dramatic parts of the movie
  • kids racing up and down the stairs or into the hallway during the showing
  • People having full on telephone conversations
  • $25 ticket price
  • Bright mobile phone usage in front of you during the movie
  • Someone on your row bouncing a leg shaking the whole row
  • Someone kicking the back of your seat during the showing
  • violence on you from any of the offenders if you call them out on the above behavior

The theater experience we used to love is dead.
