I just looked. Mighty Ducks got a 27% on rotten tomatoes. That's one of my favorite movies till this day. Who gives a shite what they think nor did I know or care back in the day. Imagine my parents telling me and my friends couldn't go see MD because some critics said it was one of the worst movies of the year

Home Alone got a 66%. It's the greatest Christmas movie ever made. Imagine if we didn't go because some smuck said it was just an average movie and don't waste your money

Mine did.

Independence Day (1996). I was nine-years-old.

And depending on your age, PG-13 movies didn't become a thing until 1985-86. So movies like Jaws and Poltergeist, staples of many childhoods on this board, were rated PG instead of the PG-13 rating they would have gotten had that rating existed in the 1970s-80s.

It's not good, at all. Reminds me of Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.

That's just weird. We were playing outside not going to the movie theaters every weekend especially during July 4th

People were making a lot less money in 1992 than they are in 2026 and If they aren't you shouldn't be taking a family of 4 to the movies to waste $100 on snacks and a movie.


my point is. They weren't worried about wasting money because we were kids and didn't care about critics.

Yes but do your parents think those are the greatest movies ever? You were an idiot kid. A lot of things actually did suck and you didn't know because you were an idiot kid, and if you had been an adult you wouldn't think they are great. I'm sorry to be the one to tell you this

As I recall we went to a weekday matinee because my grandmother went with us and that was the only time she’d go to the theater. We also had extended family in town that Fourth of July and I rarely was outside playing when that happened.

Yes, but even accounting for inflation, the average price of a movie ticket would be less than $10. The cost of living as famously not kept up with rising inflation.

Independence day was a big deal

In the least shocking news ever, SouthEasternKige has determined whether a movie is good or not based on joe blow on YouTube. 10 pages of hate posts incoming.

you can go watch a movie for $5 on Tuesdays in Lafayette so I don't see any difference. People are just spoiled now and spend money on wasteful things today that our parents wouldn't have spent back in 1992. I didn't have an ipad with the internet playing on the way to the theatre or headphones etc. Movies were just a special occasion.

I am sure that Madking and SEK will listen to dollar tree Mick Foley, but as others have said - why formulate your decisions solely off people that make a living shitting on most everything - seems like a very insular life

Yep.

I saw Twister, Independence Day, Titanic, Godzilla, Armageddon, and The Mask of Zorro -- all PG-13 movies -- with a parent before I turned 13. My grandfather took me to see The Patriot, my first R-rated film, in theaters in the late-summer of 2000.

Just saw it. Probably a bit of a disappointment. Certainly had some good parts, and Spielberg still knows how to manipulate emotions and stage a set piece, but... it was too long and the ending (no spoiler) came off as both corny and pretentious. Not what I was hoping for, but I still wish we got a movie like this every couple weeks.

Absolutely loved this movie. Sat there and listed to the score during the credits just trying to process it.

Trashy parents raising nerds. You would have been better off playing outside then stuck inside watching R rated movies all day with your strange parents



Let me guess you had to watch a youtube video from some unemployed bum so you could bring your 7 year old watch Obsession.
