Silly gadget for reporting bad picture, sound, and piracy at the movies

"Link goes to a news report on the 'Regal Guest Response System', a pager system given to a random patron in 114 US cinemas (here's the media release). The patron's device has four buttons on it:

1. Sound

2. Picture

3. Piracy

4. Other disturbance

"When they press the button, a staff member is alerted and responds accordingly. Presumably #3 sends a call directly to the MPAA bat phone.

"That's hilarious corporation-oriented design, eh? Surely the moviegoer's number one complaint is noisy neighbours, and yet it's bundled under 'other disturbance'. Where's my button for 'the guy next to me reeks' or 'I paid $11 for this jackalope turd?'"
