R means Restricted. I don't know how it is at other theaters, but the one I live right next to won't let you into an R movie unless you're 16 or accompanied by an adult.

Maybe some of you have heard this one before yourselves, but when I was a kid, my stepfather explained the movie rating system haha to me thusly:

G = Good
PG = Pretty Good
R = Rotten

This was before PG-13 hehe.

I own Fando and Lis, but I don't like it as much. Enjoyable enough, though.
Santa Sangre is OK, but El Topo and Holy Mountain rule all.


that chick Mara did a fucking awesome job in en El Topo.
i was reading somewhere that she was on LSD the whole time they were filming the movie.

I remember when my dad took us kids to see the G-rated classic The Amazing Panda Adventure (IMDB it if you were lucky enough to miss it), and when the movie was over, my dad said, "That movie should have been rated B for Boring." Now every time we go to the movies, and the movie sucks, one of us has to repeat that line.

I have Pete & Pete on DVD. And I was way into Clarissa as well. Salute Your Shorts? Check. Are You Afraid of the Dark? Check. Legends of the Hidden Temple? Hell to the Yeah. David the Gnome? ...Anyone? Anyone?

atari 2600 12.08.2006 07:30 PM

I think the very first movie I went to the theater and watched was Sinbad and the Eye of the Tiger (1977). Star Wars (1977) was one the first movies I saw in a theater too.

When my youngest brother was two weeks old, my dad took all of us (including the baby) to see Mars Attacks. I only remember this because 1) He took a freaking newborn baby to see Mars Attacks, and 2) The movie made my oldest brother cry.

atari 2600 12.08.2006 07:36 PM

Yeah, newborns don't belong in a theater.

NC-17 hadn't come along yet either.

I think the second movie I ever saw in a theater was Skateboard (1977), which I believe is the movie that originally had a dogshit-in-a-bag-on-fire-left-on-a-doorstep-Halloween-trick gag that's been repeated by so many other TV shows and movies.

static-harmony 12.08.2006 07:51 PM

I remember seeing The Lion King on the theaters that is the first recognition of seeing a movie in the theaters.

The lyric refers to Paul Morrissey's (and Andy Warhol's) Trash in which Joe Dallesandro, a real person and not an actor, shoots up heroin.
