I'm not going to lie. I'm not a die-hard Swift fan. At all.

Do I know the lyrics to every song? No.

Did I get a chance to see the concert live? No.

On Wednesday, Swift showed up to the Los Angeles premiere of her record-breaking concert film, and it looked like an absolute blast.

Before the movie began, Swift told the fans, "I think you'll see that you're absolutely a main character in the film. Because it was your magic and your attention to detail and your sense of humor and the ways that you lean into what I'm doing…"

— The Swift Society (@TheSwiftSociety) October 13, 2023 ">And Swift's right. Even though the film's only been out a couple of days, the behavior in the movie theaters proves that Swift fans, aka Swifties, are in a league of their own.

OK. But let's not. Consider the ppl around you. Cinema sound is not even a fifth as loud as concert speakers. We wanna hear taylor, not off key fans

— LINKLAND (@Swift1989AGAIN) October 14, 2023 ">And while some Swifties are super excited by this behavior, others are a little annoyed.

I love this for everyone there. They are a total vibe. But now I am very nervous about bringing my autistic Swiftie toddler who would not do well in this setting. I thought we all agreed we were sitting and singing along bc the standing and screaming was for the stadiums

— Brittney (@Brittbabi) October 13, 2023 ">Here's how people are reacting to Swift fans going wild in the theaters:

Swifties can give the best vibes in a setting like this! Looks so fun!

i'd cry if this was my screening 😭 i was so lucky with my crowd, they were literally perfect - singing along but not in an obnoxious way, and only standing up & dancing during shake it off & karma. that's all i was hoping for tbh.

Apparently, one fan was so excited they started squawking in the middle of the movie.

Another fan took an actual cardboard cutout of Travis Kelce into the theater.

Even the other Taylor (Lautner) showed up and did backflips and stunts in the theater.

I wanted to go but I just know her fans and these shenanigans that I can’t stand… I’m sure the Renaissance one will be pretty similar so I’ll wait for the digital releases thanks.

Hell no. This isnt a stadium. Thankfully everyone was respectful at our showing tonight, i think buying the more expensive imax tickets helps as people that act like this would go for cheaper ones. Shameful.

— Victoria C (@VictoriaCphotos) October 13, 2023 ">

This is the reason I wouldn't watch this in theatres. We knew there would be fans like this, treating it like a concert.

They should have "yes go psychotic this is encouraged" showings and then "normal" showings u can take ur family and not be horrified and embarrassed
