The movies
Why do people need to buy popcorn and coca-cola when you go to the movies? When I was in the movies the last time, everybody ate popcorn champed and crunched around me. I was distracted by it. But I liked the movie.
Hello Alex,
This is one reason I don't go to the movies very often, and if you buy the popcorn, cola and sweets there it costs a fortune!
I rephrased the first sentence to make it more natural - we normally have time phrases at the end of a sentence. 'Diverted' is a good word but it is not quite the right word here, cars and water are diverted around something, sometimes planes are diverted to a different airport - it is more of a physical movement. The word you needed was distracted.
All the best
Bob
