Curiouser & Curiouser
Husband and I went to see The Curious Case of Benjamin Button tonight. It was delightful. However, at one very sad point in the movie during a silence a man seated a few seats over from Husband said (I assume to someone next to him) "SHE DIED." I sincerely hope the man thought he was whispering and perhaps lost control of the volume of his voice.
Husband has a knack for finding these people and sitting right near them. It irks him to no end, and simply amuses me. He tells me that about ten years ago he was in London watching a production of Les Miserables and when Eponine's character was coming to an end a woman near him in a quite loud voice near tears wailed, "Oh she's gonna die too!!!"

I have the same affliction as your hub! When I watched "Rainman" oh so many years ago in the theater, I sat next to a man who leaned over to his mate and stage whispered, "LOTS OF CASINOS IN VEGAS!" when they went to Vegas. Loud. Obnoxious. And rather obvious.
I get it from my mom. When she went and saw "Dr. Zhivago" in the theater oh so many years ago, a man leaned over to his mate and shouted, "LOTS OF SNOW IN RUSSIA!" when they showed a wide angle shot of the Russian landscape. Again. Duh. Wonder if it's the same guy.... creepy.
(BTW- my verification word, oddly, is SHOUTY)
