I only go to see movies in a theatre when 1) it seems to be a movie that must be seen on the big screen, or 2) when it's about 11pm but my personal body clock thinks it's the middle of the day and wants to go out and do something. For The Sixth Sense, I hit the motherlode of ruining experiences. I believe there were only about five or six teenagers, but they somehow gave the impression of being far more. And they all had mobile phones. And boyfriend/girlfriend problems. And coughs. And if I was as brainless as that, I would at least shut up so people didn't find out about it.

Ooh YEAH! The Nightmare Before Christmas! Wow. It's one of the large number of movies which (as I said in some other post) I simultaneously believe to be the greatest movie of all time.
