I stopped going there after a while because while it was fun to be part of a boisterous crowd during, say, a Marvel movie, the constant din during more serious films grew distracting. The Babysitter 12 closed during the pandemic, when people\u2019s living rooms became their theaters.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">My colleague Marie Solis recently wrote <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/01\/14\/style\/laughter-movie-theaters-nosferatu-anora-babygirl.html\" title=\"\">a story for The Times<\/a> about a \u201claugh epidemic\u201d in movie theaters. People are chuckling aloud during violent, sexy and scary scenes in movies like \u201cAnora,\u201d \u201cBabygirl\u201d and \u201cNosferatu.\u201d For some moviegoers, this behavior is appalling, disconsonant with what they think the appropriate response should be.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Marie puts forward some theories as to why some people are laughing at moments that others think require more gravity. Perhaps we became accustomed to watching movies at home and forgot our theater etiquette. There\u2019s been such genre collapse in movies that it can be hard to tell what\u2019s meant to be funny and what\u2019s not \u2014 is \u201cBabygirl\u201d an erotic thriller or an erotic comedy? Maybe we\u2019re uncomfortable with a scene so we laugh nervously, or we laugh to show we get a reference.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">I saw a fairly serious movie about a violent relationship in the theater last summer and was surprised at how much laughter there was during tense scenes. I had the sense that groups of friends who\u2019d been laughing and joking before the lights went down were having a hard time switching gears, that their laughter was almost like a glitch in their software as they went from the delight of a high-spirited night out to the sober nature of what they were watching onscreen.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-1\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">I remembered the experience of the Babysitter 12, how part of the reason I stopped going was because I didn\u2019t like myself when I felt that others were misbehaving. My inclination was to be the busybody who shushes strangers who are just having a good time. I like the rules of the Alamo Drafthouse theaters, where they declare that anyone who uses a cellphone or talks during the film will be expelled. (I have never seen this happen and imagine that the threat of such a sanction is enough to scare potential rowdy patrons straight.)<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The point of going to the movies, though, is other people, as intrusive and perplexing as they might be. The reactions of other moviegoers to the movie is part of moviegoing. Yes, there are shows now designed to be streamed alone, at home, on a small screen. But when I\u2019m at the theater, I want to be generous, to take in the fullness of the audience, the community. I want to let it all in, to subscribe to the view that one person Marie talked to put forth: that experiencing emotions not just about the film you\u2019re watching, but also about your fellow audience members, is \u201cwhat makes film-going really exciting.\u201d You can\u2019t get that in your living room.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"css-1uuxri4 e1gnsphs0\" id=\"link-1439ed98\"><span><strong class=\"css-8qgvsz ebyp5n10\">THE WEEK IN CULTURE<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"css-9w1fbe e6idgb70\">Hip-Hop<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-4\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-9w1fbe e6idgb70\">More on Trump<\/p>\n<ul class=\"css-1le37cb ez3869y0\">\n<li class=\"css-1i3ul0c eoqvrfo0\">\n<p class=\"css-1il0jfh evys1bk0\">Trump said he was <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/live\/2025\/02\/07\/us\/trump-administration-updates\/trump-biden-security-clearances\" title=\"\">revoking Joe Biden\u2019s security clearances<\/a>.

Unfortunately, it\u2019s important: It kills pathogens from produce and raw meat, and it helps keep the kitchen from getting smelly. Luckily, <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/wirecutter\/reviews\/how-to-clean-a-kitchen-sink\/\" title=\"\">cleaning your sink can be an easy, two-step process<\/a>. Scrub off grime with a bit of dish soap on a brush or sponge and then rinse the sink down. Next, sanitize it with a spray containing bleach, making sure to cover the faucets and handles. Let the spray sit for the recommended time (or about 30 seconds if no time is specified on the bottle), rinse with water, and voil\u00e0. A truly clean sink. \u2014 <em class=\"css-2fg4z9 e1gzwzxm0\">Abigail Bailey<\/em><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"css-1uuxri4 e1gnsphs0\" id=\"link-c590adc\"><span><strong class=\"css-8qgvsz ebyp5n10\">NOW TIME TO
