No one is faulting people for being happy about a product. You clearly aren't understanding what is being discussed.It's actually making me smile to see people so bent out of shape at other people's joy.

Its an US specific thing. Nobody Germany does that. Everyone is quiet (laughter is allowed tho).
I'll tell you an interesting thing ... it's about editing and test screenings. Test screenings are beautiful because you can know how to move things around for those types of audience responses. But I'd never tested that line because I thought it was like, 'Oh, is that too much?' And then the last change we made in our picture cutting was to add that line back in. Then the result is that you don't hear it because we put it in the wrong place. It's got its own charm as obviously people will watch the movie in different environments without necessarily a ruckus. It's in there.
I've gone to plenty opening night/weekend releases for MCU films and others, and I have never seen anything remotely close to what is happening in that video. Yes there's laughs, and snickers, and what have you. But for an entire theatre room to erupt the way they do in the video? Yeah that's fucking annoying as hell, and luckily it isn't something that I've encountered.I figure if I'm going to see a comic book movie opening weekend, or most of the time opening day I expect the crowd to just be hype as fuck. It's an atmosphere I enjoy and like. I usually watch it in IMAX so the sound is so bombastic that cheering isn't really going to drown out anything.
It is just fun and it can be contagious, all these people feeling joy for something I love, its just powerful thing so I never go.....man, can these people shut up?....Right there with them going Fuck yeah, that was great.
if you notice, nobody says anything for like 10 seconds when thor first touches downThis.
A few of those clips you couldnt even hear the movie. Fuck that.
Or... the shot lingers? Big entrances is a thing that's been around for a while, it doesn't mean, "start howling like a maniac".if you notice, nobody says anything for like 10 seconds when thor first touches down
the movie stops and thor just stands there for a bit, then they cut to a few characters looking at him
it's almost as though the movie is paced to allow for cheers at the moment that people are cheering
it means people have been reacting emotionally to movies since there have been movies, and to suddenly act like people who cheer when something exciting happens onscreen are committing crimes against humanity is patently ridiculousOr... the shot lingers? Big entrances is a thing that's been around for a while, it doesn't mean, "start howling like a maniac".
Oof. People are excited that their favourite character is turning the tide, not that the rug was pulled from under them. Is this a serious comment?I said "Nice!", maybe loud enough for my fiancee to hear me while sitting right next to me. That's about as loud as my theater got, lol.
I mean, you knew it was coming, it wasn't a surprise. I honestly think some people get surprised by moments like this in movies, and wonder if most people have no common sense or ability to read foreshadowing.
The only movies I've been to where people get loud/excited are Star Wars movies. Yet to see it in a Marvel movie showing, out of a couple random laughs or shouts.
As it should beI went to the TFA midnight showing when that came out and I think the only noise made was a polite clapping during the opening fanfare.
No I am the guy that has self control and can genuinely have a blast at a movie while maintaining my maturity and respect for those around me.
That's the key difference. These people don't have respect or self control in the moment when their hedonistic whims are tickled.. they throw all courtesy and control out the moment adn just act however they wanna act... it's really sad and disappointing.
Its a hero shot.it means people have been reacting emotionally to movies since there have been movies, and to suddenly act like people who cheer when something exciting happens onscreen are committing crimes against humanity is patently ridiculous
also shots don't linger for no reason
like anything else in a movie, it's built to elicit a reaction
The most I've ever heard in a UK cinema is a mild murmur from the crowd when something exciting happens, and a gentle chuckle when something funny happens.
Having the entire cinema whooping and clapping would be incredibly irritating. Shut up I'm trying to listen to what's happening.

But the people around you are having fun. If it was 1 or 2 guys doing peoples head in then I'd agree with you.
Ah, the appeal to mob mentality. Sure, it doesn't make sense. But if a large enough group of people are being inconsiderate, I guess it's okay.
Its an US specific thing. Nobody Germany does that. Everyone is quiet (laughter is allowed tho).
That is different, this is restraint.Are people not allowed to laugh at comedies too? Some of yall are nofunpolice.jpg like crazy and it's blowing my mind.
Didn't happen when I watched it in the UK. Not a whisper. Still enjoyed it though.Happened here in the UK but it was the opening showing in the country and rightfully deserved the applause. Most hype moment of the film.
A laugh is involuntary, whooping and shouting is not that.It isn't different at all. We all go through different emotions depending on what's happening on the screen. A sad scene could make us cry, a funny scene can make us laugh, a shock scene can make us jump and an awesome scene can make us cheer. One of the main reasons to movie making is to entertain one way or another and ilicit some kind of response.

If it was it would happen worldwide
I am in the UK thats why I am pitching it.I wouldn't say laughing is completely involuntary. Emotions aren't binary. Having a room full of people laugh also makes you laugh too. It's definately a cultural thing. In the UK we don't even have clapping for crying out loud.
You sound like a crazy person.No I am the guy that has self control and can genuinely have a blast at a movie while maintaining my maturity and respect for those around me.

People can react quietly. It doesn't make it OK. That's like saying blasting music is OK at midnight since people have been doing it since midnight was defined.it means people have been reacting emotionally to movies since there have been movies, and to suddenly act like people who cheer when something exciting happens onscreen are committing crimes against humanity is patently ridiculous

Im of the opinion that any voluntary noise as a reaction to watching a movie is cringey and stupid on multiple levels. I definitely grin like an idiot at scenes like that and might let out a little joyful laugh to myself at the spectacle, but actual hollering and whooping and clapping, oh man the clapping... just no.
Theyre actors on a screen, they cant hear you, why are you clapping? No one around you needs to know youre so excited about a CGI that you literally cant control your bodily functions. And if the argument is that you can and you still choose too, that's even all the more embarrassing.
But on the other hand, if I choose to go into a midnight premiere of a Marvel movie, I know what's expected of that crowd in that context, so Im not gonna get bent out of shape for how people react to that.
Still, people clapping at the end of movies will never not come across as really gauche to me.
