Movie theater rant: FLAME ON!

[forestblend]

Went to go see "300" last night. Not gonna give a good/bad review on the movie in this particular little rant. The movie itself has zero to do with this posting

Someone actually brought a little kid to that movie?

Sheesh.

I am continually astounded and horrified by the number of people who seem to think that bringing a child to a (often late-night) R-rated movie is a good and acceptable practice.

Ya know, I knew this was gonna be a good read right from the start.

Preach it brother.

S~ Proud to be a parent that this was not targeted at. :)

Sing it loud!

I don't get it. I really don't. I would be mortified to even set foot into an R-rated movie with tLD even if she spent the entire time sound asleep. It's rude to the other patrons. God forbid that she be awake and talking during any movie -- even one that was age appropriate. We'd leave because...well, because that's what you do when you're a parent and you have a child who is disturbing others. You take the child away from the other people, and you explain to said child why her behavior is inappropriate. It's not rocket science.

You said it. Though, I'm not above fetching an attendent to remove the offending parent and child. Same goes for people who don't recognize that really, we actually ARE talking about them when the little "Silence your Cell Phone" message (which actually was in about five different languages, in the Regal Cinemas anyway, last time I checked) comes on.
