It's even gotten better lately. In most theatres here now they switched to the extra wide seating with huge leg room and mechanically reclining seats. It really adds to the experience and I love going again. I've always gone really but there is much less distraction this way.
have you been to the new Dolby Atmos rooms yet? Reclining seats, state of the art sound with speakers covering the entire ceiling and the best picture I've seen yet.

The cell phone thing was an issue in the late 90's early 2000's when they became more available and pervasive, but most people have gotten the memo on how to behave in a theater when it comes to phones. I almost got into a fight (at Fight Club ironically) over an asshole in front of me blabbing on his phone.
