Parents taking their kids to the movies

[terry78]

If you are a parent of a young child or a baby, what do you do when a new flick comes out and you are clamoring to see it? Babysitter, leave them on the curb, take them with you, etc.? Anytime I go see an R-rated movie, and it's always the next to last showing of the night, never fails, someone has a baby or some little kids, like clockwork. What the **** are they doing up so late is the first question, the second is why bring them to this? They better not disrupt my viewing pleasure tonight.

That's why I'm glad movies like that are strictly rated over here. If it's rated 15 or 18 you have to be over that age to even consider buying a ticket, meaning no annoying kids can get in

 

[Shuley]

Go during the day during the middle of the week so there won't be any kids there cause they will be in school and it's cheaper to go anyway.

i never see babys at 12 midnight shows.... so im fine..

if i go at 2pm then i sorta had it comin.

There was a baby at a midnight screening of TCM: The Beginning. Boy, was I pissed. Screaming throughout the whole movie, someone even went and complained that they shouldn't be allowed to bring their baby in a movie of that rating.

 

[xwolverine2]

well i've yet to experience a baby at a midnight show...

especially the FIRST midnight showing

 

[nocomics]

heh, going to anymovie barring it a kids movie, I hate it when people bring their baby's. I'm there to see a movie,not listen to the little 'poop machine' ball his/her eyes out......

I usually goto afternoon show anyways,so mostly noone goes depending on the movie....

 

[xwolverine2]

the rollerskate shoe kids are the most annoying.....

those ****ing rollerskate shoes!.... they always rollerskate down the isles...

Here in the UK the Vue cinema chain have special 'late' showings of nearly every movie starting from about 10.30 pm onwards .... No matter what rating the movie is only over 18s can go to these showings.

So for example you can go see Harry Potter with other adults safely avoiding the screaming kids.

Well, it's cheaper to pay to bring the kid to the movie than pay for a babysitter, plus you have to find the babysitter, probably pick them up and/or drop them back home. It's really a hassle, much easier to just bring them to the movie. Plus, it's not like they haven't seen violent, sexual expilicit, foul-mouthed movies before, that's stuff all over the TV and parents can't actually be expected to pay attention to what the kid is actually watching. It's really the movie industries fault anyway, if they didn't make the trailers look so good, the parents wouldn't want to go to the movie and have to bring their kids in the first place.

When we went and saw Resident Evil 1, someone had brought a baby along...so it was crying through out the movie. (well, it may have been the baby and possibly a couple fan boys crying tears of dissapointment also)

Dumbest thing I've ever read today. That is unless you were joking. I can't always tell sarcasm in writing especially when you don't use a smiley. The point is it's the typical attitude all the ******* masses have today. Don't give a **** about anyone but themselves. They don't stop to think that their little brat is going to be making noise and ruining everyone elses enjoyment.

I was one of those fanboys.

Tux to the theatre, top hat and tails to the grocery store. And anytime you have an inquiry about an item you ask with, "what's all this, then?"

 

[xwolverine2]

id bring a sign to the theater reading: "children will be shot on sight" and post it on the theater door... but i think id be arrested

Yes, you could be arrested, but seeing someone do that would bring a tear of happiness to my eyes.

Just give them a gun to play with a la Planet Terror. Oopsie, it just went off by itself.
