Civil Citizen's Guide
In short, be considerate of the organizers, your fellow club members, and the businesses we frequent.
Here’s a quick reference guide for respectful participation the Denver Cinema Club, ensuring an enjoyable experience for all.
- Read the whole event description. We host several kinds of events, so make sure you know what you're signing up for. If we say you should buy your ticket in advance, we mean it.
- RSVP with integrity. Your organizers make reservations based on RSVPs and also look for and/or wait around for those who have RSVP'd yes. Don't be a no-show! Change your RSVP if your plans change.
- Don't show up if you're still on the wait list. Sometimes the event organizer limits the number of participants. The organizer might think the discussion will be best with a small number of people, or there might be a limited number of seats at the venue. Respect the organizer's wishes.
- Be nice to theater staff and our food servers. Be polite, tip well (we are kind of a pain with big tables ordering and paying separately, so please be nice and grateful to our servers). Take your popcorn/drink trash out of the theater.
- No phone use and no talking during the movie! Not even whispering! Whispering during the previews and end credits are tolerated, but please be considerate of folks who consider those part of the movie experience.
- Be kind to your fellow members during film discussion. Do not talk over or interrupt someone who is speaking. Don't belittle differing opinions. This extends to our message board, Zoom, any way we meet.
Denver Cinema Club is a safe space. If you have any issues, please bring them up with an organizer.
