Should movie theaters decide what's acceptable to show in their theater, or should all movies be made accessible and let movie-goers decide? What's worse, nudity or violence, language or drugs? Who should make the call?
My cousins had a horrendous experience at a movie theater this weekend. A theater full of young HSM:3 goers awaited the movie's start. The first 5 minutes of the "movie" was so vulgar with language and very sexually explicit/pornographic material that parents were screaming at the projector operator to shut off the movie! My cousin Tamara ran out the theater to tell a manager what was going on. A huge mistake was made. An additional theater was added to accommodate all the HSM:3 crowds. However, in this theater, the movie wasn't switched... the young audience was exposed to "Sex Drive." Fortunately they got their money back, but what if the theater didn't have that horrific and pornographic movie at the theater in the first place!? There would be a lot less traumatized kids and furious parents.
Check out this news story here. I'd be curious to hear your thoughts...
