How is it rude to text in a cinema?! Everyone does it here and you bother no-one with it

I find it annoying if the person in front of you or near you is texting; it's distracting. Especially now that smart phones have huge screens and are really bright. Not every scene in a movie is bright, and if you happen to be watching a dark movie then it's even more annoying.
Talkers we all agree need to shutup, but too many people think that as long as their phone is silent they can text away. I pay to go to a movie so I can sit in the dark and not have any distractions while I watch. Considering that the theatre specifically asks that people to turn their phones off then I expect at least not use your phone unless it was an emergency.
