I am going to concur that here in the US people are freaking out over content, BUT ONLY IN PUBLIC PLACES. In private no one seems to care, well except in UTAH. Here in UTAH we have what is now referred to as a PORN CZAR. She is the only one of her kind, a 50 year old female virgin who is in charge of keeping smut out of utah. So far she has issued orders to keep the ABERCROMBIE AND FITCH catalog out of state run stores. Next up she is going to go after VICOTRIAS SECRET, because she claims that they are not selling underwear, they are selling sex. My mother also believes this. JUST TO PROVE MY POINT, I went into the VS store and asked for a two dollar whore. SOrry, they only sell underwear.

I could care less about what age sees what movie. It never harmed me and I am just a harmless pervert with only two women that I stalk.

I remember in previous posts that Ian and Ky don't go for the carding crap. Better to have the kids in a safe and clean environment than on the street creating their own sex and violence.

I pretty much enforce the R rated rule NOT because of the content in movies some things kids should not be seeing like Training Day and From Hell. But the reason I am such a jerk to so many people is that if one person buy a ticket for all his 4 teenage friends, they will probably be talking, or doing something stupid in the theatre which would cause a complaint, and make my job harder than it really has to be. I card and am strict to prevent problems not because I don't want kids to see certain things, I don't think movies like Last Castle are as harmful to kids as something like Training Day or From Hell, even though Last Castle rated R, so I am a little more lenient about it. The major problem is movies like Scary Movie and the upcoming Not Another TEEN Movie. UGH. Why are you marketing to teens if they aren't even supposed to be watching it, they come to the box office thinking they deserve a ticket.
