After months of anticipation, dozens of Star Wars fans were agreeably angry when the “Star Wars: The Last Jedi” began to play with no sound at a Burbank theater Thursday night.
Several posts to social media show fuming fans standing in the lobby of the AMC Burbank 16, 125 Palm Ave., demanding management start the movie over again.

According to Twitter user, Isaias Rodriguez, theater management attempted to appease the angry fans by either moving them to another screening at the same theater — albeit not in the IMAX format — or to attend a screening of the much-anticipated film at another AMC theatre Friday.
Despite these options, many fans were not satisfied.
@AMCTheatres wow opening night showing of Star Wars at AMC Burbank starts without sound for 10min and staff refuses to restart the film! Unbelievably poor customer service!

Despite the problems, it appears the issue may have only been with the IMAX screening.
The disturbance became so tense, there were reports police were called to the theater.
ALERT: Burbank police have been called to the AMC Theaters for a large crowd of people mad that the sound failed in their theater.
You think you have it bad waiting in those long concession stands…
