After the Credits: No cell phones in the theater

Cell phones are amazing and terrible things. They’re amazing because I could very well be typing up this article on them, and they’re terrible because I could be doing it while two hundred people behind me try to enjoy Elysium. A lot of people still don’t seem to have figured out cell phone etiquette (myself included), and it’s something that we as a society really need to work towards. A very simple first step is to not shine stupidly bright lights in the middle of dark rooms. I don’t even know why this is an issue. So that’s what the above video is about, but it is a bit broader than that. It’s not just an audiovisual repeat of what you just read, so you should still watch it.
