Martin Scorsese has stated he no longer watches movies in public theaters because of the disruptive behavior of fellow moviegoers, such as talking on phones and making noise. In a conversation recounted by film critic Peter Travers, Scorsese expressed his frustration with the inconsiderate behavior that drowns out the film's dialogue. Travers contrasted this with their childhood experiences of discussing films, while Scorsese noted that past conversations were centered more around the enjoyment of the movies rather than distractions. The issue has become more prominent, exemplified by events surrounding recent films like The Minecraft Movie.
"I asked the maestro why he doesn't see movies in theaters anymore and he went all raging bull about audiences who babble on phones during the movie..."
"Yeah, maybe, but when we talked it was always about the movie and the fun we had chewing over the details."
