On December 2009, just after Christmas, I went to a cinema in one of the shopping mall in Kota Kinabalu. Me and my friends were planning to watch the biggest movie of the year ‘ Avatar’. As expected, it was crowded and we were lucky not to get the neck bending seat right at the front. We managed to get seats that were okay even though I thought it was a bit too close to the screen which made everything moved so fast.

The movie was after all not disappointing and worth our time watching it. Only a few glitch of course especially when they suddenly changed the Na’vi subtitles into Malay which was a bit confusing and funny. It was also annoying as they put some words into short term as if I was reading a confusing short text message.

To make things worst, right in front of us was a family of 4, the parents and a pair of twins babies which could have been less than a year old. At the other side, another couple with a probably 2 or 3 years old child screaming and whining around. Lucky for us that the audio was loud enough to compensate the extra sound effect around us.

However, what were these parents thinking guys? Don’t they ever realized they should not bring along kids let alone infants into the cinema? They must have no idea on how such loud noises can affect their children. They must have never think about the flashing lights that can damage the babies sight. I bet they want the kids to grow up with eye problem or even worst, hearing problems. I thought it was really inappropriate to take such a young kids to the cinema. Don’t you think so too? Maybe they were so desperate to go out and enjoy a movie but there is no harm being reasonable right. Grown up kids I don’t mind, they can enjoy the movie at least. But these a toddlers! How are they supposed to understand the movie let alone watch it?

They should at least leave their kids to someone to babysit them while they can go out and watch any movies they want. Or they could have just waited until the home DVD is out so they can watch together at home without disturbing others or damaging their kids senses.
