Did you go to see Godzilla tonight? I have a policy of never going to the theater on the opening night, or even the opening weekend of a blockbuster, but my kids said it was enjoyable, and very crowded. Steve and Ash of Megacynics and their friends bought tickets ahead of time, but couldn’t resist giving Ash a hard time when they texted their last-minute plans. This is but a small portion of the conversation that just got weirder as it went along. Read the rest of it at the Megacynics website.

I have the opposite policy, especially with the Marvel Comics movies. Nothing like the cheers of a packed house! (And since we buy our tickets online a week early...)
Those who know not how to move through their fear to the other side and act always find themselves trapped in an emergency, no matter what they've been taught. It doesn't take any effort or training to realize that attempting to swim away from a sinking boat is better than staying on board.
However, for one frozen by fear, no thoughts are had, so no amount of prior training will matter.
