In all seriousness, wasn't there a time where they checked ID's for R-rated movies?

With all these kiosks these days at the movies, are more kids seeing R rated movies than ever before?

I don't even remember anyone checking that Ive been buying kids tickets and saving myself $3 every time now...:mindblown:

You're talking about the concept vs the execution. Every generation thinks the kids need to be protected....but in reality hardly anybody was ever checking IDs for movies, or for music when the PA stickers started.

To make things worse, there was this whole "movement" to keep kids out of R rated movies in the 80's when you could go to your local video/grocery store and see all kinds of shyt on the back of video tapes, anyway.

I personally didn't know any seniors that were making freshmen their girlfriends, no. Sex? Maybe, but even that wasn't some shyt you'd brag about.

I went to school at Central, Paseo, and Westport in KCMO in the 90's. You would get clowned for trying to get with a freshmen. Maybe it's a generation gap. :manny:

The last time I can recall seeing IDs being checked at a movie theater was when Scary Movie came out.

I remember in the early to maybe mid 00s they used to stand outside of certain R rated flicks double checking tickets. Cant remember the last movie they did that for.

Maybe theres less R RATED flicks

First movie i was carded for was American Pie in 1999 :beli:
I was 17 but had to sneak my 14 yr old GF and her friend in :win:


Yeah I think that American pie and Blair witch are the two movies that started that ID check shyt cause before that I never had issues and shortly after it seemed to die down. I had a few friends who tried to sneak into American pie, got caught, had the police called and banned from the theater for a year. shyt was funny cause o was supposed to roll but ended up not going.
