Author Topic: Movie Theater "Shusher" Stabbed With Meat Thermometer Frank Angel Film God Posts: 5305 From: Brooklyn NY USA Registered: Dec 1999 posted 03-14-2010 10:46 AM                        A good friend of mine worked for the old Brandt chain of vaudville grind houses on 42nd street in the 70s before the city turned that block into a squeeky clean tourist trap. Back then we called it "forty-douche street" for obvious reasons. He was the "street manager" with all theatre managers of the 7 houses on either side of the street under him. He told me that they had at least 3 shootings a month at those once decent theatres-turned-flop-houses/drug-dens. From the day he started work thru his entire tenure, his single focus was looking for another job.  |  IP: Logged Galen Murphy-Fahlgren Master Film Handler Posts: 405 From: Canton, MI, USA Registered: Oct 2007 posted 03-14-2010 05:16 PM                     Man, this is a crime that should've occurred in reverse. I mean, I find the use of any device that emits light or sound in a theater highly offensive, but I suspect that some people may not be aware how disruptive text messaging and that sort of thing are. Seriously though, actually talking on the phone? This is a case of knowing something is wrong, doing it anyhow, and having your cronies attack someone for calling you on it.  |  IP: Logged
