Just got back from playing hooky this afternoon at Regal Cinemas where I caught the matinee of "No Country for Old Men."
Some observations:
Regal management, please don't put loud films like Will Farrell's "Semi-Pro" next to a relatively quiet movie from the Coen Brothers. At one point I thought that the loud bass music was actually the soundtrack for my movie. Wrong. I couldn't figure out why the disco beat was accompanying Josh Brolin as he was viewing a deadly scene. It reminded me of when I used to live in an apartment and I could hear the guy next door playing bass.
Also to Regal: I understand now why some art house movies never make it here. I apologize. To my dozen or so other moviegoers who shouted at the screen when the credits rolled, "IS THAT IT?" All movies don't have happy endings. For future reference, if you see a movie with the Coen Brothers on the credits, just skip it.
And they wonder why people aren't going to the movies anymore!

Wait for video, man ... there's no such thing as a quiet theater any more.
