Outdoor movies

This is a great idea in practice i have to say...the weather is somewhat predictable and you don't have to sit in a huge coat as you would in England. My question is...why would someone pick a movie which makes you jump out of your skin every 2 minutes? also why a Thursday night? As it was outside my dorm window all i had to do was listen through the walls! My thinking is they should play classic movies...real movies!
