Even though "The Artist" just nabbed the Golden Globe for Best Motion Picture (Comedy or Musical), not everyone is a fan. Apparently, some British haters moviegoers are only interested in paying to see talkies. Seriously.
The Odeon Liverpool One theater received several complaints from people who saw the French flick without realizing it didn't have any… umm… sound. And unlike the movie, this group refused to stay silent. Unmoved by its homage to the silent era or stellar (albeit non-verbal) performances, they demanded their money back. Not to worry, they were refunded in full for their tickets, Entertainment Weekly reports.
Call us crazy, but between this and the lawsuit over "Drive" (which one patron claimed was promoted as being like "Fast and Furious," but, in her opinion, wasn't) it seems like moviegoers may be taking their entertainment a wee bit too seriously. If this keeps up, we may all have to sign waivers before entering a theater.
Then we'll never have time to load up on popcorn and Junior Mints before the movie starts.
