So I read lots of movie reviews and am always hearing how the audience applauded this or that or cheered the hero on or something.
I'm 33 years old and have seen an insane amount of films in theaters in my life. I have seen people applaud a movie ONCE. The crowd actually applauded Austin Powers 2 which I saw in a theater in Century City in LA.
I've never seen it where I'm from or anywhere else. Is it a regional thing? Where I'm from, people might laugh at a movie out loud or possibly be a goober and talk to the characters in the movie out loud, but at the end, people get up and file out the door.
Why this bugs me enough to post about it, I don't know.....but I'd love to get feedback on this.
