Are you telling me that you never saw a rated-R movie without your folks before you turned 17? I'm perhaps biased because I was watching R flicks by the time I was 6 or so, with some restrictions from my parents (basically they didn't care about violence or language, but monitored the sexual content of what I watched). By the time I was a teen, my parents would've given the go-ahead for just about any rated-R movie I wanted to watch, but then you've got the whole requisite parental accompaniment bit at the theatres. Bit annoying, that.
No I did not. The only Rated R movie I saw in theatres before I was 17 was The Edge and my mom took me to see that. Youre also talking to the same person who didnt cuss at all until I moved to college... I was probably the most innocent teenager ever until I moved to college. I liked my innocence. I hung out at church 5-6 days a week, went to a private baptist school, and never went out with friends outside of church because I stayed at home and helped my mom with my brother.

One of the reasons I see R rated movies is so I don't have to deal with damn teenies. I often will opt out of seeing a particular movie at the theater because it isn't R rated. So I'm glad we're about to get a bunch more R rated movies.

Sounds vaguely like Alamo Drafthouse here in Austin?


...can't wait to go there this summer~!

=D

(sorry, back on topic)

I saw many a rated R movie when I was under 17. My parents even took me to see Howard Stern's Private Parts in theaters. tongue.gif
I don't think I'm some morally f-ed up guy, but hey people can think what they want.

it's not a legal issue, they simply won't sell them the ticket.

i heard about some uber theater in chicago that has an awesome atmoshpere, either 18 or 21 and up, serving restaurant style food & drinks (alcohol too) and having large recliner sized chairs and stuff. i would pay much more for a regular ticket if it meant there wouldn't be stupid kids and there'd be ultra comfortable seating, with the option for food and drinks.

one of my biggest pet peeves at movies is people who bring babies. especially to movies like spiderman.

Sounds like the Movie Grille that has a few locations in Dallas. I think they allow kids, but you sit down in comfortable reclining computer chairs with a long table in front of you and can order food and drinks. It's pretty nice being able to drink beer and watch the movie. The drawback is that you have servers running around in there so it can be a distraction.

I wish a theatre chain would grow some balls and not restrict entrance to movies based on rating. The 17+ for R movies is not a legal requirement, but a purely voluntary practice.

actually that depends on the state, i think something like 6 or 7 states actually do have laws to that effect. Not that it would matter.


edit: and yeah, studio movie grill is some sweet shit, even if half the servers (at the Plano location) are addicted to heroin and the drinks cost $5-9 a pop, not to mention food costing around $13 on top of a $9 ticket. The trick is to find coupons -- my girlfriend's mom somehow has the inside track on them, and has a giant sheet of 'em every 6 months.

The Plano location also shows sports (ie, hockey and football games) in HD on their screens too.

I saw Days of Thunder in the movie theatre with my mom when I was like 5...but that may have been rated PG-13... I dont remember...


And yeah, Alamo Drafthouse is fun times. I actually refuse to go to the regular theatre now because Alamo Drafthouse is cleaner, has fewer kids, and serves real food and beer/margaritas/wine....although I have never drank there

I miss stars & stripes already.
