And actually, I try to go at "odd" times (early afternoon for R rated movies and late night for G-PG movies), and either there's really nobody there, or the people that are there are respectful. The only movie I ever brought my infant to was the Phantom of the Opera at the dollar theater, and it was at 8:00pm, so she slept the whole way through...and she was used to Opera-style music, so that didn't upset her. Now that she's older, I took her to see Bridge to Terabithia, and she talked a few times, but she was generally very good.

sadly enough ...they closed up a lot of the dollar theaters in this part of MD...
I won't lie...sometimes, when don't feel like being bothered, I find 'other means' to get my movies and if I really like them buy them on DVD once released...what is the most annoying about the movies is how much we are paying now for movies vs 10 years ago and more of these movies suck (see the thread: Movies you belive people should NOT watch lol) and they keep making sequels. The worst offenders of sucking money from people are Japanese horror flicks remade for the American public.
The Ring, Juon, and a few others were better when left alone but the moment someone tinkers around with it...the movie gets shot to hell and you come out wondering how can you get your money back.
