Wicked 2024

★★★★

Rewatched 28 Nov 2024

The 40-year-old mom sitting in front of me was recording the movie with her iPhone, so I kicked the back of her chair. She turned around in a fit of rage, and screamed at me for not verbally communicating with her to turn off her phone. 

Look, lady, if you’re gonna shine your bright ass phone in my face while Idina Menzel and Kristin Chenoweth are singing their cameo, you’re gonna get your seat kicked. 

I didn’t come to the theater to have a conversation with you about why you shouldn’t have your phone on, let alone why you shouldn’t be filming in the theater. 

I don’t care about your shitty ass trend, and the fact that you’re a 40 year old mom who feels the need to be on their phone for the entire duration of the movie says to me that your kid needs to be hauled away by child services. 

Someone is going to get seriously hurt over this trend. 

You just wait and see.

I didn’t really want to see Wicked a second time. But that’s what my friends wanted to watch Thanksgiving night. I was mostly bored, and that shitty bitch with her phone didn’t make it very enjoyable. 

How are 40 year old adults watching TikTok throughout the duration of a movie they just paid $25 to see? What the hell is going through these people’s obviously empty heads?
