Is this normal behaviour?

[Deleted]

So I just watched this



Personally I think the movie looks terrible but is this common behaviour among audiences when watching outrageous comedy? Only reason I ask is because never have I experienced a cinema audience react like that to any film (thankfully). Is that reaction manufactured or genuine?

I feel like audiences at these things are always like a caricature of real people. Every emotion is exaggerated.

That's usually my opinion just curious though if people have experienced this

[Socialhealer]

fake, they are just sad star struck people, if he asked for a personal rimjob from all of them they would fight over who goes first.

[Thrif]

Well. It's sacha baron cohen, whose movies tends to provoke emotions one way or another. Especially from average, non-internet-jaded people like the ones in the audience. Also, knowing that their reactions are being filmed probably made them exaggerate quite a bit, intentional or not.

Since the whole situation is highly abnormal and manufactured, I wouldn't call their reactions genuine, but I don't think they have been given instructions to laugh hard and look baffled like that.

Seems pretty normal. People were reacting only a little more subdued at Deadpool last night.

Deadpool is rated R and is an action comedy with a lot of graphic violence and sexual humor.

[Mehrunes]

Well, more normal than people clapping on planes, I'd say. But a bit over the top compared to anything I've seen in a cinema. But as has already been said, the setting is different and exaggeration there is common.

Off topic, Sacha Baron Cohen looks really weird as a normal guy.

Perhaps it's a regional thing

American audiences are much more animated, and a TV show studio audience has been prepped to laugh. Revi's people would sit there quietly, maybe the corners of their mouths would turn up a little.

I also think that this was a publicity stunt for the movie.

They seem to get swept up in the atmosphere a lot more than I'd experience here. Some of those people were probably laughing because the atmosphere can be infectious if incredulous enough. Around here those kinds of outbursts are seen as impolite.

[Jonnusthegreat]

They aren't watching a movie. They went to a late show where it's expected the audience laughs. This is completely normal for the situation. In a movie theater, I'd be pretty upset if that happened. Perfectly normal for that situation though.

[klogaroth]

One thing I do know is that this is a fantastic promotional tool for the movie.

I suspect a fair few people will now go to see the movie to see what it was that provoked that reaction.

[Rafoel]

I experienced bursts of uncontrollable laughing many times during certain comedies. I see nothing weird in this clip.

How can I make a decision either way without seeing what they saw?

"Location: England" aaaaand everything is clear.

Sorry dude, but you guys there behave more straight than sticks.

[The Whimsical Dwarf]

Considering the content in the clip, I'd say the reaction is most likely genuine.

Laughing to the point you can't hear it? Yeah GTFO, a comedy gig I can understand not a movie.

No watching Jimmy Kimmel is not normal behaviour...I kid of course.

Well from my movie going experience, I've only ever seen/heard other people laughing quietly or have a short laugh whenever a funny moment occurs in a film. Then again this could just be an overexcited audience exaggerating the hilarity of the scene because they're on camera.

So people laughing at a comedy, in a group setting, bothers you?
