I'd LOVE to see local theaters have the backbone to support this policy

A theater in Austin, Texas took a phone call from a customer and made it into a Public Service Announcement (PSA), telling other customers of their policy of not tolerating people who use their cell phones in the theater.  If you'll click on this YouTube video below, you can see an edited version, with the crude, low-class language bleeped.

Who of us movie-goers wouldn't be for this?

All in favor?

You're welcome NOT to return, m'am.

And your friends are welcome NOT to come.

Why I stay home and watch movies on the telly, using the VCR and DVD. Snacks are better too.

It's a pity we've become so self centered and oblivious to the world around us...

Some of us, anyway, for sure.

It would be nice if some theater management got some backbone and courage to create and support their policies, too.
