AMC Theatres will let guests under 17 in to see the film "Bully" with a guardian or bring in a signed permission slip availible on their site.

A little "ballsy" to make that statement!

Do you think that you're better than those who may live in those so-called "bubbles" just because they won't step down to your level of life..and you're not mature enough to accept their level of life?

(Not to flame, but this one got me a bit here...)

C'on, let's be a little fair with this since these people are being fair with you in your decision of what you want to do with your life....by leaving you alone. So, show a little fairness and leave them alone.

it has nothing to do maturity - its about being open minded. I don't have to agree with other people in this forum, that's because it's just that - a forum. I don't have to side with someone just because they think they know it all or make grand statements on what is acceptable and not acceptable. I have my opinions, Robert has is, so be it.

Regal Theatres will treat this film as a normal MPAA "R" rated film at it's theatres. Evan without the rating tag.

Report: Harvey Weinstein Plans PG-13 Bully Edit
By Kyle Buchanan

Try to act surprised: After milking his ratings battle with the MPAA for everything it was worth, the LA Times is reporting that Harvey Weinstein has readied a PG-13 theatrical cut of his new documentary, Bully. Weinstein has spent the last several weeks blasting the MPAA for slapping Bully with an R-rating over several f-bombs, a high-profile crusade that may have diminished the point of the documentary but at least provided a hook for enlisting celebrities to fight on behalf of his film. The re-rated cut will hit theaters on April 13 (the current version, which is going out unrated, debuted in Los Angeles and New York today) and recalls Weinstein's attempt to goose the grosses of The King's Speech last year by replacing the R-rated Best Picture winner with a PG-13 cut. That revision failed to crack the top ten at the box office and earned Weinstein the enmity of his Oscar-winning director, Tom Hooper, and star, Colin Firth.

Today the MPAA will downgrade the "R" rating to a "PG-13" rating. The main scene on the bus with the "Fuck" words will be left intact, but to get the "PG-13" rating they will cut the 3 "Fucks" used later in the film.

That's Hollywood

Like they said on South Park, if this movie was so important that every kid needs to see this movie (as its marketing suggests), then they should release it on the internet for free.

Nobody needs to see this movie.
