fullmetaboy Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 Now i don't have a problem with Good Movies, infact i love movies, when i'm at home, thats all i do is watch movies. But whenever i decide to have a kid, (Probably never) I don't want him exposed to this stuff. Like Kill Bill, Great Movie, Great Actors, Actresses, but way way to violent, Saw, Swordfish, Dawn of the Dead, Land of the Dead, The shining, So on and so on... but yeah, don't you guys think that The violence in todays Society is a bit much? i'm just pondering, you guys can throw in whatever you want Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knives669 Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 Personally, I love violent movies. I will watch ANYTHING as long as it is violent. When I have children, I will work hard early in their lives to teach them the difference between reality and the fiction of movies and video games. Once I'm sure they can differentiate between the two, I'll let them watch whatever they want to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest GhostRanger Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 You like and appreciate the movie without the violence getting to you now because you are older. Just wait for your kids to get older before they see them. Its way we have ratings. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Punc Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 I don't know, when I was little I watched movies like Rambo and Terminator and so, they were pretty violant, but there is a difference with those kind of movies and movies like Saw. It's a pretty delicate subject, and the line between violance and non-violance is sometimes pretty blurry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jak722 Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 It has been already accepted by society... Much like drugs, sex and other social taboos. I wonder if blood sports would be legal in the future... *ponders* The Enrichment Center reminds you that the weighted companion cube will never threaten to stab you and, in fact, cannot speak.

Pete_the_Viscous Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 I don't think it is too much, no. I think that a lot of it is cheap, but I don't have a problem with it. It really depends who's watching it: some people can watch anything and not be affected adversely; others watch things and go out and kill people. The thing is, (I think) those people would crack sometime in life anyway. There is no way (I don't think) that any sane person will see a film and, because there is violence in it, assume this is OK for real life. Generally (now that I'm an adult and can watch what I please) I agree with age classifications, at least when it comes to levels of violence. What I do not agree with is the way swearwords, sex and all sorts of things like that are slipping into pg films. My reasoning is (however right or wrong) that seeing someone being shot won't make a kid go out and shoot someone; hearing a swear word will make them use it, however, or at least draw their attention to it. Strangely, I don't have a problem with people using swear words. However, I think kids find it (forgive me) "cool" to do something which isn't allowed; ergo they will tend to over-do it. I don't have a problem with someone swearing when they get in a bad mood, or hit their thumb with a hammer or something, but when people use swear words to fill the gaps in their sentences I think it has gone too far. Anyway, I don't want to get this too off topic, so back to violence. I just don't see what is wrong with film violence. For the very young, maybe it's not good, but for anyone with any proper sort of a mind, I don't see how it could affect them. deviantart account Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
How2PK Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 I won't. I will get him/her to watch quality movies, and quality movies sometimes contain violence. I'd rather have him/her to see some violent pictures so that he/she can develop a full good taste than sensor his/her life and that he/she ends up having a bad taste. Of course I won't show him movies like Itchie the Killer (sp?) when he/she is five years old. Signature by Maurice SendakWhen the stars make you drool just like a pasta fazool, that's amore!

Faux Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 Disney movies ftw. I'll make the little guy/girl cry with Lion King, just as I remember happening to me :cry: Would I show violent movies? Depends, is it a girl or a guy? If it's a girl, then no, she's gotta be a bit older til I let her watch and if it's a guy, I don't know.. probably after 9 or so, I can show mild violent movies. :: Guess the Movie Contest Champion: pfilc23 :: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
insane Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 Desensatize your kids early. At least that's my plan. The thing is that violence affects them alot more at an early age - trying to desensitize them will not only desensitize them to violence on a screen, it will also desensitize them to violence inflicted on others in real life, and that's not a good thing. I'd wait until my children are older before showing them violent movies, once they're older, they can spend the rest of their childhood mutilating each other via video games for all I care.

Lionheart_0 Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 it will also desensitize them to violence inflicted on others in real life, and that's not a good thing. ERm isnt that a good thing, cause they wont care for violence and know whats right from wrong? just my opinion. Sig by IkuraiYour Guide to Posting!

No because then they'll end up class bully... unless you're all for people doing whatever they think is right - which generally sucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
