The theater experience is already going to hell in a hand-basket.  It doesn’t need any encouragement from the actual theater, but that’s what the Tateuchi Center in Bellevue, Washington will offer.  According to the New York Times [via Cinemablend], the theatre (set to open in 2014) is trying to woo “younger audiences” by removing cell phone restrictions and allowing patrons to talk and text their hearts away.

Hit the jump for an explanation of this madness and to watch me go mental over the decline over the theater going experience (again).
