What are your opinions one this?

Wow, you act like they're providing bad customer service when they're just abiding by standard rules and regulations. I hate people like you that do that--I've had people call me all sorts of names because I won't sell them cigarettes or beer without an ID.

Wait until you get older, little boy. Or if you have to break the rules, get some random older guy and have him buy a ticket for you.

I never had that problem, I would either ask my dad or mom, (or friends parents) for a ticket, or someone else, but you wont believe this: in my theater, the parents have to buy themselves a ticket, and then sit with you through the movie, or else your not aloud. Yea, every parent in my town hates the theater. Stupid fat workers.

I think what pissed me off the most is that it's easier for me to buy booze than to get a ticket in this theater.

Than why don't you buy a big stack of Sin City Comics, get drunk and or "high" and make your own little Sin City movie.

R: Restricted; Under 17 requires accompanying parents or adult guardian.

That is directly from the MPAA website. Actually, you're in Mexico, so it might not quite work the same. Is there a Motion Picture Association of Mexico? Otherwise if they follow the American ratings system then they have to let you in provided you're 17. Otherwise, as long as one of your friends it 18 or over, they have to let all of you in.

Sorry to hear you were rejected though. It was a good movie until I had to leave because my girlfriend absolutely hated it. I never got to see the end, but I'm sure it was just as good.

Holy crap, you left what possibly is one of the greatest and most scandelous, with the whole banned from the directors guild, movie of all time just because your girlfriend diddn't like that. Wow...thats love.

Just get one of your older friends to buy you a ticket. What's the big deal?

Hey, I wasn't allowed in a movie theatre before because my hair was too long.

She hated the violence. I thought it was absolutely awesome in every way. But I wasn't going to let her sit there through the entire remaining 45 minutes covering her eyes and ears and not watching the movie at all. She kept saying she felt bad about wasting my money, but whatever.

Shit happens. I'll finish it one day (probably soon) when it's on TV.

A kind of censorship is okay but I do think we should not put a 16 AND a 18 thing. When we're 16, we're old enough. But I do agree on some movie, I was 3 when I saw Jaws and believe me, I'm fuckin scare of sharks!

Depends on who is working there. Some employees aren't really strict on that and others are.

I know that isn't as bad as this:

So a "R" rated movie comes out and I'm 18. I was with my mom and we were getting the tickets early so it wouldn't be sold out.

She waits in the car and I go to the booth. The woman asks for my ID and says she can't sell the tickets to me.

Get this. I can by a ticket to a "R" rated movie, but I can't buy multiple tickets unless I'm 21.

What type of shit is that? Like I'm gonna start some ticket racket where I go around buying multiple tickets to "R" rated movies and selling them minors on the black market.

It was the dumbest thing I've heard. Hasn't ever happened except for that one time though. Maybe I look older or whatever. I don't get carded at all either.


I'm not conceited...I'm convinced.
Also, I like to use ellipses.......a lot...

What are your opinions one this?

you're totally out of line, buddy. don't you know what restricted means? you're not allowed to watch movies like that. that's why they put a restricted label on it. they don't want to let in minors like you. what's the point of the rating if they let in minors? the point of it is to not let in minors.

It's harder and harder to get tickets to an R rated movie, so the best course is to just buy tickets to another show and sneak into the R rated movie.

Frankly, I'm glad they gave it an R rating. I'm sick and goddamned tired of the dozens of movies over the past few years that have been intentionally toned down to PG-13 just so they could make more money.
