Back Seat Film, Reviewers

So last night my new husband and I went out to a movie. Actually two. We randomly went out, ended up at the Cineplex. The movie we wanted to see wasn't on so we saw another one on account of driving out all that way.
Enjoyed the first movie, naturally was very early for second flick so went in, got a good seat.... 

A bunch of old people sat behind us! Like, right behind us even though the cinema was empty. They seemed nice. They then proceeded to talk in an uncool middle aged fashion through out everything... The adverts, the trailers, the film! 

'My name is Max.' Proclaims a scrubby man in a desert wasteland war zone. 
'Ah, this is Mad Max.' Says one of the old men smugly. Like, no shit, dude. 

Their partners arrive. 
'Oooh, this must be a blokes film!' One of them advises during a trailer for Fast and Furious 7.
'This is definitely a chick's flick!' The other says during Age of Adeline.
'Yeah, it's a new genre.... Chick sci-fi!' Guffaws one of the blokes.

Or, you know it could just be an interesting film about a woman but I was just thinking there weren't enough gender stereotypes flying around here.
