Back Seat Watcher

Your running commentary during this film is uncalled for. Listening to your telling of salient plot points alternately mixed with pleas for clarification proves two unflattering truths. That you undoubtedly have no consideration for others and apparently, you are mentally deficient. There is no reason to go into the ways in which talking during a film is the very apotheosis of rudeness. The only way you could not know how rude it is, is from just being oblivious. But that alone does not show you to be an incredible ignoramus. No, it is the content of what you're saying. You can't track the characters or simple plot turns. Your poor friend is mute probably because he knows any answers he may provide wouldn't help. They would lead only to more questions. It is like explaining to a toddler why the dog died. You've made an art form out of ignorance. Maybe I should marvel. This is an offense that should result in meting out of very public and immediate corporal punishment.
