I've witnessed this before, but I must admit that I am a culprit of this crime too, but in a different way. If the movie sucks (i.e. Wild Wild West, Loser, or Cold Mountain), and it is obvious to me that everybody else thinks so (not really the case with Cold Mountian), I start doing a "Mystery Science Theater 3000" with the movie. Everybody seems to get more enjoyment out of the movie then.

Just like your comment on the actors not being able to hear the lady in the plane, they can't hear you clap to show your appreciation either.

I've always wondered the same thing. I remember yelling at people on a charter bus for clapping after we saw a movie.

Head over to Westerville if you want to find out. I've never seen them anywhere else.
