Speaking of loud noises . . .

I went to the movies the other day and forgot to take my earplugs. I thought I had a pair in every bag, but I guess not. I don't usually use them for the movie, but definitely for the previews. Why oh why do they crank up the decibels for those previews???

It was especially bad in this case because apparently the viewers of this particular movie (Sin City: A Dame to Kill For) were expected to enjoy horror and violence. All the previews assaulted the eyes and ears big time.

This was on a Friday afternoon, and there must have been a total of eight people in the entire theater. I was thinking if the theater had been full, maybe all those bodies would have absorbed some of the sound. The volume was just awful. I wonder what it's doing to the hearing of young moviegoers.
