Is anyone actually buying those PSP movies? Where I work, I've only seen one person order one, and they sent it back because they thought it was a regular DVD. I don't see the point of paying roughly the same price as a DVD for something you can only play on a small portable device. Maybe if it at least had A/V outputs to hook up to a regular TV.

Anyways, back to things that make me angry:

4x3 pan & scan movies, and their being incorrectly labeled as "Fullscreen"- also people who buy them

People who have made the moviegoing experience what it is today- this includes those in charge of theaters who don't give a crap about the actual movie, and customers who come in late and leave early while repeating every line of dialogue on their cellphones. Actually, cellphones in general make me angry.

Stupid kids playing "hacky sack" outside the theatre and then one of them coming in to request me to go onto the roof to get his frickin' shoe. No shit - happened last night. That made me angry.

Gosh Mike... what a hard-ass! Give the kid a break! At least he asked you and wasn't skate boarding down your railings or something!

Weren't you a kid at some point? [Wink]

I remember when I was in grade school, I used to kick the soccer ball on the roof all the time (not on purpose if I remember correctly). There was a janitor/custodial guy who'd always get it, I remember running into him at a gas station about 5 or 6 years later, he remembered me from having to go up there all the time, and we had a nice laugh about that. At least they were just playing hacky sack, rather than spraying graffiti on your walls!

Hey, I did...I went up and got his frickin' shoe.

About graffiti -- we're pretty lucky in that regard in this town. There's really no graffiti at all here. (as he knocks on wood)

Columbia has now changed the aspect ratio mistake on the "Ghostbusters 1 & 2" double disc gift set boxes. It now states that one film is 2.35 and the other is 2.40 ratios. But they still forgot to say on the outer box that it is anamorphic widescreen.
