Oh also kicking the backs of other people's chairs. If they do that then they can GTFO.

QUESTION about that.

We took our daughter to see "Rio 2" a week ago.  It's obviously a kid's movie, and we saw it on a saturday afternoon where the whole theater was families.  A woman sitting near us was going apeshit every time a kid would bump her chair.

The question is, as an adult, don't you expect to have your sit bumped/kids talking/crying/etc while going to a children's movie?  Seems like you should mentally prepare yourself and not worry about it.

I took my little ones (4, 7) Wolf of Wallstreet at Carmike in September.  They loved it. 

I'd say go for it Ofc. D.

@Ok_cat depends on what movie you're going to. If that's going on during Wolf of Wall Street i'd go crazy. I'd expect it at Rio, but that little crap needs to knock it off.

Implied risk, IMO.

My oldest son got scolded by LHC Bill Snyder for this when he was younger at a basketball game.

G rated movie: Expect constant talking, crying, whining and some seat bumps. Although if it is constant seat bumping then the parent needs to make them stop because that is annoying as eff.

PG rated movie: Expect some talking with the parent telling them to be quiet if it is excessive. A little crying but the parent should remove the child immediately if it is loud or continuous. 2 seat bumps are allowed and then they better knock it off, especially if you turn around and give them a dirty look.

PG-13 movie: Laughter and maybe a scream are allowed. 1 seat bump and then GTFO.

R rated movie: No talking what so ever and no seat bumps.

I never go to see G or PG rated movies in the theatre.

I think kids should be able to read at an 8th grade reading level before you take them to a PG-13 movie. Age doesn't really factor into the equation at all.

The bigger issue is whether your kids are jerks who are going to be talking, crying, whining, etc. during the movie and ruining the movie watching experience of other movie goers.

Mrs. Gooch did not used to be like this. I have done very well molding her over the years.

I saw Jurassic Park when I was 5 and was only afraid of dinosaurs until about the time I started driving. So I assume your kid should conquer his fear of the Winter Soldier by about the same time.

Is he emotionally sensitive?  Like would the death of a pretty, young actress in some sad drama-y way upset him? 

I could watch Rs all day long as a young gun with horror or action-violence, but mom deaths like in Bambi and LBT really stuck with me for a while.  Do not recommend.

My rule of thumb is that if it's clearly fantasy, it's OK.  But, if it's very close to reality, no dice.

We do super hero PG 13 movies in my house, but no edgy comedy or real life war stuff.
