Spoiled golden compass

Just yesterday, I watched the Golden Compass and it was like hell. Don't get me wrong, the movie was fine, it was the couple sitting next to me. They spoiled it big time.

How? Maybe the dark and cozy setting of the cinema provided a good place for them to make things a lil steamy, because the movie did not have any steamy scenes at all. From time to time, the person sitting beside them could hear sounds, or more specifically, muacks. Once or twice is OK with me actually, but please lar don't do it every other minute like you gonna make love. At least muacks more quietly lar can??? Armoured bear roaring, muacks. Witches with bows shooting arrows, muacks. Nicole Kidman's awesome by the way, muacks.

Ok, muacking may be acceptable for some people. How would you feel if your seat shakes every time the person sitting beside you shifts his position every 15 minutes (agak-agak only, it's very frequent lar) for god-knows-what reason? I don't know what they did, because it's dark and it wouldn't be nice to look and stare (and get the shock of my life) would it? but our row of seats even jerked once. Jerk as in how you would very abruptly move away when someone tickles you if you can't stand tickling like me. A better example would be when a bad driver stamps on the breaks. Again, I have no idea what they did. Obviously they're not into the movie.

If you happen to be dating, love going to the cinemas and the couples' seats are sold out, please be considerate and the person sitting next to you would be very thankful. You could do whatever you want in your car (remember to cover up if it's a convertible) or find a room instead, just not in a cinema. Thanks.
