24. I agree. It's hard to tell what exactly happened.
Edited on Thu Aug-18-05 12:42 PM by sleipnir
I'd like to hear the other side of the story. And for all you out there, March of the Penguins is not automatically a "kids movie," far from it. When I went to the theater to see this film it was 85% adults. I bet there's a good chance that there weren't as many kids in the theater as we are assuming.

Regardless of disability, I hate disruptions at the theater. Phones, talking, etc. Though, laughing too loud seems a bit unusual. I can't say I've ever encountered that in a theater.

It's a reality that some people's disabilities can cause others to become legitimately annoyed or angry. It may not be appropriate or right in the "holy than thou" approach some here want to implement, but it's true.

As usual, the truth probably lies somewhere in the middle. My guess is the kid probably was being disruptive to a degree, but it probably didn't necessitate him being thrown out.
