Top 5 MCU Theater Reactions

I can’t tell if I love these or hate them.

Well, I love them from afar, certainly.

Watching people viscerally, vocally, vociferously react to film is rather touching. Seeing/hearing folks celebrate these moments is a ton of fun. As Nicole Kidman tells us, this is why we go to the movies, to feel these feelings and become overcome with emotion.

On the other hand, I’m reasonably certain I would also be the nerd that would call out “Can’t hear! Pipe down!” as these whippersnappers hooted and hollered. Also it depends on if you’re feeling the same way as the crowd. Like, I was also jazzed by many of these MCU moments, so I’m more lenient to the insanity these audiences are unleashing. But feeling nothing when Chicken Jockey shows up in A MINECRAFT MOVIE, compounded by a theater full of yahoos causing havoc, would just make me loathe the whole thing even more.

Blink-182 is right — I guess this IS growin’ up.

Spoilers ahead for SPIDER-MAN: NO WAY HOME, AVENGERS: ENDGAME, and AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR.
