Really?

I've posted before about fights breaking out in movie theaters. Well today it happened again.

My friend Dave and I went to see King Kong (much enjoyed, by the way) and right at the part [SPOILER] where Kong is back in NY and being introduced on Broadway a guy a few seats down from us turns and practically yells to the person behind him "That's it! Stop kicking my goddamn seat!" After this, the people he was yelling at got a bit defensive, there was more angry yelling and then a couple of he guys actually stood up to "take it outside."

Of course, they didn't actually go outside. They went into the little hallway between the door and the theater and continued to yell at each other. In full hearing range of the entire theater.

What is it about this city that people feel the need to threated and beat the crap after each other at the movies? I truly and honestly don't get it.
