16 Types of People You See at the Movies in Egypt

Going to the movies is one of the most popular activities that people like to do, but it can also be one of the most annoying and horrifying experiences of your life.

Unless you live in a mansion in Beverly Hills and have your own indoor movie theater, you never know what to expect from the people that will be joining you in the two-or-more-hour experience you’re about to embark on.

So here’s a list of 16 people that you will always see at the movies in Egypt:

 

 

 

1. The Spoiler Alert

 

tumblr_n02jizNsu91ssm62zo1_500

 

They’ve already seen the movie 12 times and will tell you everything about what’s going to happen and ruin the movie for you just because they can!

 

 

 

2. The Raghay

 

tyra-banks-quiet-gif

 

You can barely hear the movie because they just won’t shut up!

 

 

 

3. The Fan Girl

 

giphy

 

She doesn’t even know what the movie is about and she doesn’t even care, she’s just there because her favorite actor is making a cameo in the movie.

 

 

 

4. The Geek

 

tumblr_n1xsjucXNb1rmb5x9o3_500

 

He’s seen all the sequels, prequels, adaptations and spin-offs, owns all the merchandise of the movie and shows up dressed as one of the characters.

 

 

 

5. The Hopeless Romantic

 

tumblr_ms3udicvYs1sftcl1o1_400

 

She obsesses about every single guy that appears in the movie and imagines how they will end up together, living happily ever after.

 

 

 

6. The Couple

 

tumblr_mlclg0r8yp1so5xtno1_500

 

They’re on a date and the guy is missing the entire movie because he’s thinking about the perfect time to make a move.

 

 

 

7. The Call Center

 

tumblr_m2y7ferD1J1qlrn9t

 

This person is apparently very VERY important that they have to make 29 phone calls while the movie is playing.

 

 

 

8. The Information Desk

 

I-Have-Lot-of-Questions-GIF-2015

 

They are non-stop trivia: “Who’s he?” “Is he in love with her?” “Who’s that again?” “Is he going to die?” “Is that the guy from Titanic?”

 

 

 

9. The Babysitter

 

giphy (1)

 

She thought it would be a good idea to bring her baby to the movies and have everyone enjoy the baby’s crying orchestra.

 

 

 

10. The Crying Machine

 

bcb04febd8f880499dfe8c9db6875a64

 

She treats every movie like a Nicholas Sparks movie.

 

 

 

11. The Laughing Machine

 

b-laugh

 

They laugh at literally EVERYTHING and anything, even if it’s a Woody Allen comedy.

 

 

 

12. The Unfashionably Late

 

GIF-Better-late-than

 

They show up late to the movie and miss most of the storyline, so they end up being confused for the rest of the movie.

 

 

 

13. The Annoying Bladder

 

giphy (2)

 

They will get in and out of their seat 18 times, disrupting the entire theather to go to the bathroom.

 

 

 

14. The Pirate Bay

 

tumblr_mz7u28Ik8G1qdlh1io1_500

 

He tries to record the entire movie in the sneakiest way possible to upload it later on the interwebz. This has since cut down due to ISP’s banning torrent and streaming sites (or at least trying to) viewers of such sites can still gain access with the use of proxies, for example, you can find the best Pirate Bay proxies here!

 

 

 

15. The PDA Couple

 

Tumblr_m4igv26kW11qg96ino2_500

 

They sit in the back and have no idea what movie is playing. They’re just there to “express some emotions” …physically.

 

 

 

16. The Lebb Guy

 

6358238744963757301567442246_noisy

 

He passes by the me2la and buys a mixture of lebb and sodany before going to the movies and by the end of the movie, he ends up sitting on a huge hill of 2eshr.

A computer nerd gone wrong, Hady is a self-proclaimed social media whore who went from programming and writing code to writing about the Kardashians and celebrity gossip. His guilty pleasure is watching trashy reality TV and his mom is always fighting with him because she believes that he loves Beyoncé more than her.
