Saw Iron Man 3. Eh, not bad, not great. But what is up with the volume in movie theaters? I ended up making ear plugs out of a napkin and it was still too loud. I'll have to remember real ear plugs the next time I go, I'll still be able to make out dialoge clearly.

Is everyone going deaf?

I find it varies with the theater. I hate going to the AMC 24 in Hampton, they run the sound so loud, it aggravates the tinnitis in my right ear. Last time we went there, I took ear plugs. The Cinemark over in Norfolk at Military Circle is my favorite. Beautiful theater and the sound is just right.
