Cinema NINJA : Hilarious concept

The Prince Charles Cinema, in London's West End, has come up with a unique solution to the problem of patrons using their cell phones, throwing popcorn, or having conversations during a movie: NINJA.

The Cinema has teamed up with Morphsuits, a Scottish company that produces skin-tight, head-to-toe zentail suits, to create their own volunteer movie theater "ninja task force." 

These 'theater ninjas' aren't actually trained in the dark arts of Ninjutsu - they're simply film lovers who provide their services in exchange for free admission to films.
