Speaker 1 (00:00):
So me and my wife are usually pretty good about
being on the same page of what's going on with
our kids, always have been, which is that's a big help. Honestly,
when you can agree on how you're going to raise them,
what you're going to do, certain things we believe in,
it's a big help. And so we are usually on
the same page when it comes to a lot of stuff.
I mean, there will these small disagreements that obviously happen,
(00:22):
but for the most part, we agree on how we
want to raise our kids. So it's been good. Well,
there has been something that's popped up kind of recently
that is different for us. We're on two completely different
pages when it comes to something that has to do
with my son and letting him do something, where I
(00:43):
think it's kind of silly and it's like whatever, what's
the big deal, and my wife is adamant about not
letting him do something. So my wife is a goodie
two shoes. You think I'm a rule follower, You have
no idea. She grew up, always has been born, raised
the goodie two shoes, always the teacher's pet, you know, first,
(01:05):
the first person showing up for things. You know, she's
like very big time goodie two shoes and we're you know,
I'm I'm a pretty big rule for her. But you know,
I'll get in there from time to time, like you
know whatever. But she she for the first part, she's
straight and narrow, you know whatever. And so you know,
we've raised our kids to you know, have really good
(01:26):
morals and things like that and you know, try to
do the right thing. Well, the way my wife grew
up is that she was not ever allowed to see
an R rated movie until she was what's the age,
seventeen eighteen, yeah, whatever, So she never saw, like there's
so many movies that you know, in the eighties and
(01:48):
nineties that I'll say, hey, you see blah blah blah.
She's like, no, it was right, it are wow, I know,
but I mean everybody saw Jaws or whatever. I don't
remember what's R you know, but I mean like all
those scary movies growing up, never saw any those are
rated R. Yeah, like like Nightmare and elm Street and
those kind of things.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
Yeah, those were the ones that me and my girlfriends
would see.
Speaker 3 (02:08):
And I remember we started seeing them, I don't know
about fourteen fifteen, and.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
We you know, we thought we were so cool.
Speaker 3 (02:14):
I mean, now one of the parents would have to
buy the tickets so we could get in, but they
they would because they're like, yeah, these are this is
a goofy slasher.
Speaker 1 (02:22):
For even renting movies. Yeah, she wouldn't see are rady movies?
Speaker 2 (02:25):
Oh that's what check.
Speaker 4 (02:26):
I don't remember what happens if you were like going
to house.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
You point like die Hard, Yeah, like an R raty movie.
I never saw it.
Speaker 4 (02:36):
And like, was there those movies sitting around the house
too at her house?
Speaker 1 (02:40):
I don't know she could pop one in. Well, no,
I don't think your parents would let her. Wouldn't And yes,
and she was such a good she wouldn't do it
behind the back.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
Yeah, because I think if a movie has the F
word in it, it automatically gets an R rating. Like
there's certain words and certain body parts that will automatically
trigger the R rating. So it's crazy to think that
she went that long without seeing an R raation movie.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
But that was the rule, so she wouldn't do it.
So it was kind of crazy to me. You know,
when I bring up a certain movie and say, hey,
have you ever see it? No? I never saw it
because it was our really but at some point, don't
you just kind of do it? Really? But okay whatever,
That's how she grew up. And so this has never
(03:24):
really come up before because my daughter Taylor, who's older,
she's sixteen now, never really requested to go see an
R rated movie or watch an R rated movie. It's
severally popped up, but my son has. So have you
guys seen the you know, trailer or seen this movie
(03:45):
back Rooms?
Speaker 5 (03:46):
You know what it is, These horror flicks are making
a comeback, So horror movies.
Speaker 3 (03:51):
This one is pretty specific, but I haven't seen the
trailer or anything.
Speaker 1 (03:54):
Yeah, this movie back Rooms, which I think last weekend
was like the number one movie or whatever.
Speaker 5 (04:01):
They like walk through Walls.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
Yes, so it was basically what this is is this
started as like a YouTube thing and like like there
was a YouTube short or whatever about this movie, and uh,
you know, it became the sensation on YouTube and all
these people, well the person that made him decided or
(04:24):
you know, to make it into a feature film. And
he's like a young guy. He's like twenty something, you know,
super young guy. And you know that's why it's like
a big deal or whatever. This YouTube movie became like
this feature film, and it's a huge hit totally and
it's a it's a it's a horror movie, but it's
like a more psychological thriller type of a thing. So basically,
(04:46):
the premise of the movie is this guy works at
a store. He goes into like one of these rooms,
but it leads him into like another almost dimension, and
it makes him spiral into insanity and it's like really
creepy and crazy and the things he sees and the
like all this stuff. It's a trip.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
Yeah, you know, it sounds like.
Speaker 1 (05:08):
And so of course my son, who is in the
YouTube generation, wants to go see this movie, you know,
and was all hyped. He actually wanted to go see
it on opening weekend. Oh wow. And I didn't know
anything about it. I was like, what the hell is
this back rooms and what is it? I didn't know
anything about it, and so, uh, come to find out,
it's right, Dar, And it wasn't even a question in
(05:31):
my wife's mind. Well it's rad Dar. He can't go
see it. He's he's fourteen, just had his birthday in
high school, he's going to be a freshman in high school.
Can't see it. That's wild. And I go well, wait
a minute, I go, let me at least look into this.
I don't know anything about it or whatever. So I
didn't know. I didn't know anything about it. So I
looked into it.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
Yeah, why why are we rated?
Speaker 3 (05:53):
Ar?
Speaker 1 (05:53):
There's no blood and guts, there's no nudity. It's just
because of the concept based. It's you know, psychological and
creeping scary, and there's maybe a little bit of gore
and cursing. That's it. Okay, Yeah, that's it.
Speaker 5 (06:08):
I can't understand if she was like, no, the nudity, Yeah,
I mean it's porkies. No, I mean, I mean fourteen.
I went to the theaters with some buddies. We saw
American Pie two. Oh, it's great life. One of my
favorite movies ever seen in my life.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
Strong sexual content and that.
Speaker 5 (06:24):
Better than the first one and the language. What was
crazy about it? I don't think this is that no
at all. There's no like lesbian scene with stiffler gym.
Speaker 1 (06:35):
Which is a bummer.
Speaker 5 (06:37):
I'll tell you what he's missing out. Yeah he needs
to see that.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
Okay, but walker that movie.
Speaker 5 (06:41):
Merga Pie two definitely not tell my wife next year. Yeah, exactly. Yeah,
we have to watch the first one. First, Yeah, obviously
he's so lost.
Speaker 1 (06:54):
Dad, who's Shannon Elizabeth? Yeah, And so I looked into it. Yeah,
I see this. It's a little creepy.
Speaker 3 (07:01):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (07:01):
But I'm also like I sat him down. I said,
you know what this is about? Oh yeah, he broke
it down for you, watched the YouTube thing, and so
he knows what it's about. All him and all of
his group of friends are hype to see this movie.
And so I'm like, huh, all right, well I don't
really see that big of a harm in this. I go,
(07:24):
you know, do you you do understand? You know that
this is kind of creepy and psychological, and you know,
you may get it like nightmares or something by this.
Are you you understand that? Oh yeah, I'll be fine, Dad,
I know it's not that big of a deal whatever.
All right, let me let me talk to your mom
about it. Yeah. So I go bring it up to
Deborah and she's like, it's rated R And I go, yeah,
(07:47):
I get, I understand that, I understand the concept or whatever.
Speaker 5 (07:49):
Like she's looking at you like you're insane, Like this.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
Isn't even a question, like like we're not buying him
a gun, I might as well we're gonna down to
a path, you know, like criminal behavior.
Speaker 5 (08:02):
Because of the ying booze for the movie when.
Speaker 1 (08:05):
Yeah, pretty much. Yeah, I don't understand. Uh so I
go listen. I watched the trailer. Yeah, I understand, you
know that it's rated R. But I really don't see
the harm in letting him see this movie. If there
was a bunch of stuff in there that it was
like not good for him, yeah, okay, I get it,
But I don't think is that bad. Anything was that bad?
Speaker 5 (08:26):
He's watching Euphoria right, you know, yeah, maybe in a
couple of years.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
Oh yeah, for sure, I definitely will. But yeah I didn't,
but she was. She's ten toes down.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
She's not budgeting.
Speaker 1 (08:43):
She will not budge. I mean, I'm trying to convince
her to let him go see it, but she's pre
staunch and like they're they're not seeing rated AR movies.
Speaker 5 (08:53):
That stinks because then all of his buddies are see
it and he's not gonna see it, and then and
then you know, then the joking star arts probably makes
something up. You gotta tell, you gotta get in there,
and you gotta tell devor listen.
Speaker 1 (09:09):
He's not a boy. Yeah, he's not gonna be what
I try to tell her, and this kind of backfired.
Is you know, Emily took Read to go see Jackass
in the drive in that like three years ago, and
when we was when we was Jack Sage.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
Yeah, yeah, he was Jack Sage when.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
I see that, and that was fine.
Speaker 4 (09:38):
So that's a little bit that's a little extreme, and
I don't in hindsight, that probably wasn't the right decision
because Godzilla, there's you know, it's it's private part. There's
an explosion of fluid over the city.
Speaker 5 (09:54):
Yeah, that's how they kick it off. That I said, though,
I feel like we all like we all watched Jackass.
I know, Jackson, we did. We saw it in the theater.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
We did well. I was grown.
Speaker 5 (10:05):
And Emily I saw. I was like thirteen when that
was out twelve thirteen, fourteen.
Speaker 1 (10:10):
Yeah, I don't know, you think that was a good idea.
Speaker 5 (10:13):
Yeah, it's Jack Gass, you know what I mean?
Speaker 2 (10:17):
And it was read fine after that, I don't know.
Speaker 4 (10:20):
I mean, I think he's always been a goofy kid
that makes some racy jokes.
Speaker 1 (10:23):
But was he you know, driving his bike into a
brick wall.
Speaker 2 (10:27):
He wasn't wasn't he made it through.
Speaker 3 (10:29):
He didn't.
Speaker 4 (10:30):
He didn't try to mimic all of those scenes, thank god. Ok.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
I think he already did half of them.
Speaker 5 (10:35):
Yeah, probably did. Probably what is Deborah things going to
happen if he sees it.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
That's what she's worried that the psychological things like Scarby
he is too young, like mess him up?
Speaker 3 (10:45):
But is he a kid because I've never heard you
talk about like him having nightmares or being too scared
to do this or too.
Speaker 2 (10:53):
Scared to do that. Because he was one of those kids.
I could see what Deborah was saying, you know what
I mean.
Speaker 3 (11:02):
But if it's just because it has that letter next
to it and that's the only scary, it's scary.
Speaker 2 (11:08):
Yeah, I get that it's scary. And see you no
because you know no?
Speaker 3 (11:14):
I Well, I'd let her go see an R rated movie,
but not this one because she is I love her
to death, but she is a scaredy cat kid, you
know what I mean?
Speaker 2 (11:22):
Oh, nice girl?
Speaker 1 (11:23):
What's the line for you? Like? What is it? Nudity?
Is it? Gore? Is it?
Speaker 3 (11:28):
Nudity is not a problem. Sex is not a problem. Yeah,
I mean, she's she's sixteen years old.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
What does that mean?
Speaker 3 (11:40):
I like, she, well, she knows people who had sex,
you know what I mean, Like she came from people
who had sex.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
That is true, But I mean she knows people her
own age she would have had WHOA.
Speaker 3 (11:53):
So it's like that's that's real life, you know, And
you know me in my house, it's like, you know,
we shouldn't be ashamed of our body, blah all that stuff.
But I know her and her being sensitive, I know
she will have nightmares if she saw something like this.
She could potentially worry about people dying and you know,
getting upset about things like that. And I'm like, I
(12:15):
don't yeah, yeah, I don't know what's going on in
those dimensions. So so for her a horror movie, no,
But like comedy, brom com dirty comedy, I'd be okay, yeah,
if she wanted to.
Speaker 2 (12:31):
I don't know if that's her type of humor. I
don't think. I don't think she'd enjoy it. Crazy, but yeah,
so that's that's for me.
Speaker 3 (12:40):
It's like if she if Dever's just saying no because
it's our and the rule is you're too young, then
oh yeah, that's what it says.
Speaker 2 (12:52):
Seventeen you can't go see it already movies, So discussion
is still on going.
Speaker 1 (12:59):
Get it. Uh? And so you watched like Major League
when you were like five? Yeah, so you watched R
rated movies.
Speaker 5 (13:07):
I never even think about the rating, really, I never
even crosses my mind.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
Yeah, I.
Speaker 5 (13:16):
For some reason I thought that, like, especially in this
day and age with streaming, when movies come out, I
don't even like on your stream on your streaming. Yeah
I didn't even know that.
Speaker 4 (13:26):
But I've never really looked at that either, like when
it's like but no, but all like know what the
thing's about, Like I don't know the rating, and I'll
like let read watch.
Speaker 5 (13:33):
No, I'm sure like Haley's, my wife doesn't want me
to like let him watch certain things, but so he won't,
but he will ways.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 5 (13:45):
I watched the Attitude of Wrestling grown Up when I
was like ten eleven years.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
Old, so like I've heard some of those women around
barking like dogs.
Speaker 5 (13:53):
Yeah, it was crazy.
Speaker 2 (13:54):
It was crazy, grown man.
Speaker 5 (13:56):
Vince McMahon taking his pants down and grown men kissing
his ass?
Speaker 1 (13:59):
How many laundry matches as you watch?
Speaker 2 (14:02):
Okay?
Speaker 5 (14:02):
Uh, so my son won't watch them?
Speaker 1 (14:06):
You got something, you know something. Yeah, we'll see what happens.
But yeah, this is a battle and I don't know,
I don't know how far I want to take it.
I don't care that much
