QUICK POLL: Do You Multitask At The Movie Theater?

According to a recent Pew Study, the number of teens who text is increasing, as is the number of texts sent per day. Given this, it's probably not the most OMG-worthy news to most young people that a recent poll from The Hollywood Reporter found that 80 percent of TV viewers like to browse Facebook while they watch their favorite shows. The poll also found that young people (ages 18-34) would like to use social media while they are watching movies in theaters, if given the choice.

Does this mean that the days of being scolded for texting in movie theaters could finally be coming to an end?

The only multitasking I did at the theater was to tell people to quiet down, which is why I don't go anymore. I miss the days when if you created a disruption, you were thrown out.

It works if you do it in German ( with a high pitch ) .

Pretty much why I hate seeing movies in theaters anymore. People think they're in their living room.

I don't think that's called multitasking, it's called ADD.
