DON'T BRING YOUR STUPID SNOT NOSED LOUD ASS CHILDREN TO THE THEATER. Seriously, I went to see Ice Age tonight, 12:30AM showing and was blown away by all the parents who lugged their children into the theater.

There were kids crying everywhere, and the constant question asking, and talking throughout the movie made me want to kick the parents right in their face. It's after midnight, put those shits to sleep or beat them until they stfu.

Midnight...Really.

Talk about ruining an otherwise good movie. :|

We were hanging out all day and just wanted to check out Ice-Age. We figured we'd catch the last 3D showing of it, and relax a little bit.

It was just astounding how many kids were in the theater at that time. Really, I was blown away. I wasn't the only one that was pissed either. You had to hear how people sucked their teeth everytime one of the little bastards started crying.

People need to keep their kids home at that time of the night.

Shrug. Never gone to a premiere of a kid's movie. I've gone to a 7pm showing of UP on the same weekend and it was like LOUD AS SHIZZLE. Too early. I saw Ratatouille, WallE and some other kids movies on opening weekend but at much later times like 10pm or so and it's a LOT better. I mean you're going to run into abnoxious kids once in a while, I suppose OP just got unlucky at midnight because common sense dictates that kids won't be around at late hours.

I'd wager that he's really really unlucky. I went to see up with my friends after like a week of opening at 10pm and we were the only ones in the whole theater.

Agreed, OP. I go to movies late night to avoid stupid mobs of children.

Its 12:30 in the morning. Learn to raise your kids properly you fantanstic morons.

You're the kind of jerks that let the bastard children scream their heads off in restaurants.

A half hour past midnight isn't late at night?

It is. Parents are fucking stupid. They're irresponsible with their children and rude to others by doing so.

I saw Transformers 2 midnight premiere, and in addition to having the WORST seat in the house (first row, farthest to the right), there was a baby and (i think) two young kids in the audience. >(

Let me see here, 12:30 am showing is to late to take kids to a movie on the FORTH of JULY, when they had probably just had enough time to get to the theater after the fireworks.

Most kids are worked up by loud noises and tend to stay awake after the fact.

I wonder if the OP was beat to go to sleep as a kid, if not he should be beaten now for being a moron.

i agree with this. i hate when im shopping anywhere rather late, anytime after 10ish, and people have their kids with them. WTF you lazy bastards cant get up earlier to go shopping. fucktards. the ONLY reason id shop that late with my daughter is if i ran out of childrens medication and she was sick!

What time of the day is appropriate to have loud kids in the movies? There's nothing wrong with kids seeing the late show. The problem is their parents haven't taught them how to behave correctly in public, and they're going to grow up to be fucktards that talk on the cell phone, or text in the theatre.

hey man, im bringing my 4yr old daughter to see that movie! but shes not an annoying child, shes very content while watching a movie. and besides, i come prepared, any need she might have while there is taken care of immediately and i bring stuff for those situations. only issue would be getting up to use the potty.
