2. When you are in a theater, turn your cell phone off. The cell phone is both visually and aurally distracting. Using it in either way is distracting and rude. If for some reason, you feel the need to make a call, get up, leave the theater, and do it outside. Your desire not to miss the movie does not take precedence over the right of the other patrons not to be distracted by your choice to use your phone during the movie.

I totally agree people should not USE the phone somewhere like a theater. I will turn off all the sound my phone can make, but I will not shut the phone off if I am at a movie without my daughter. If I get a text or a ring (silent/vibrate) I will get up and go in the lobby to deal with it. But there is no way I will sit unreachable for 2 +/- hours if Manda is somewhere else.
