This Crazy World We Live In

At No. 2, David Fincher's "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" took home another $10.2 million, lifting its total haul to $22 million. Starring Brad Pitt, the film follows the story of a man who ages backwards.

CNN has a story about a man in Philadelphia who shot at a family of moviegoers because they wouldn't shut up during a showing of The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, proving once and for all that movie theaters are in need of some kind of technology that would prevent this kind of people from entering them.
