The kid dies – tragic – on popcorn at the movies – tragic – and he’s only three years old. Tragic.
SO WHY WAS THIS KID AT ALIEN VS. PREDATOR???????Sure, he could have died at The Country Bears and it would have been equally tragic.
My point: WHAT THE HELL ALL OF THOSE PEOPLE TAKING LITTLE KIDS TO THESE MOVIES THINKING??? And not (only) because little kids in movies can be irritating. They can, but when we go to see, say, The Incredibles (which I cannot wait for!), I expect little kids. I do not think it’s okay for little kids to be at something scary or ultraviolent.
I could smack the couple who brought their two-ish little girl to go see Kill Bill and wouldn’t take her out when she started crying. Of course she was freaked out! How selfish do you have to be to think, “Oh, I want to see this movie so of course I should take my little child with me.”
