For many years I have refused to go to movies in theaters.
The volume of the sound there is one of the reasons.
Others being, obnoxious people on their cell phones, someone talking during the movie, someone spilling drinks, popcorn etc.


I’m definitely with you on that! On the rare occasions I do go to the movies, I try to remember to take earplugs with me for when they get out of control with the volume.

But the everyday occurrence of watching TV is where it really bugs me. It’s not the volume, but the belief of the producers/directors that tension building music must be in the background of any scene. It gets to the point where I’d rather mute the TV and read the close captioning with a lot of programs.
