TikTok Trend Forces Cinemas to Ban Teens from Wearing Suits to New ‘Minions’ Movie

The recent release of “Minions: The Rise of Gru” appeared to be an animated hit with both 👧Children and suit-wearing teenagers over the weekend.

As seen on TikTok, the long-overdue sequel has caused male teenage fans to dress up for the occasion and call themselves “Gentleminions.” The film, a sequel to 2015’s “Despicable Me” spin-off “Minions,” was released Friday.

In response to the fan excitement, theaters have banned those wearing formal attire to the screenings due to their disruptive behavior, Yahoo News reported.

While the formal-wearing teens enjoyed the theater experience, the same could not be said for other moviegoers.

The TikTok trend showed the teens recording themselves cheering, shouting and clapping during the film. They can also be seen mimicking the Minion characters, which caused many others to complain to theater managers.

According to The Independent, some customers also took to 📱Social media to voice their frustrations.
