Pierre the Great Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 (edited) Its rated R here but in Canada its 14A. I've always wondered do the commericals in Canada say rated R on the bottom or 14A or such and such. P.S. I like the Canadian rating system although I think different ratings for different provinces is a little silly. Like for example one movie can be rated 18A in Alberta and 13+ in Quebec. Strange.

I'm pretty sure our commercials have the American ratings attached to them. We rarely have an R rated movie in Alberta though because it has an entirely different meaning. Our 18A is the US's R. But correct me if I'm wrong since I'm not entirely sure on this, with rated R movies in the states can someone under 18 see it as long as they've got someone older then 18? There was a music video that played during the credits that might have been it. It took place in the airport. :hlogo: Ah, ok, I figured it might be in the credits (the song IS called Snakes On A Plane anyway). Theres a female singer in the chorus that sings "Oh! I'm ready for it!" if thats recognizable at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fromage Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 In Quebec, it's extremely hard to put out a movie that's rated R. The highest I've ever seen in theatres is 16+. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 Jackass the movie. Had to be 18 to see it and people lost their minds. The show's on TV and had to be 18 to see the movie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetsniper Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 Sin City was rated R here. Sucked since I was the only one out of my group that was 18 at the time. Went and saw it with my dad. As for Skrats, it's a good thing I like Randy McKay. Skrastins is the shit. B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pierre the Great Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 Saw Snakes on a Plane tonight. Laugh hysterically but I must admit America is a sadistic place when we find snakes devouring people funny. Best death scene was the couple in the bathroom. I kept thinking no they aren't no they aren't and they did the snake went for the boob. LMAO!! Then the guy taking a leak funny. See I'm finding this funny, when I probly shouldn't but oh well.

No no! You're getting the movie! It's SUPPOSED to be cheesy and funny, thats why everyone wants to see it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pierre the Great Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 Yeah I know it was suppose to be cheesy fun. I think they over did it with some death scenes though. Like did they really have to show the horny couple after they'd been killed wished the neurotic newlyweds survived though. Believe it or not they're where 5 year olds seeing this when I was there. 3 of them. A little girl was also there but I think she got scared and was taken home after the horny couples sex scene. This is why I brought up is america sadistic, bringing toddlers to see Snakes on a Plane. Those parents need a talking from social services. Although I think one couple in there tried to take it seriously because whenever I was laughing I heard snide remarks about me. Yeah the movie was fine, they just could have gone less on somethings. Felt bad for the little kids watching the film. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pierre the Great Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 yeah were have you been fanpuck. 6 or seven dollars for one ticket plus 6 to 9 dollars for one popcorn and a drink. Thats 12 to 16 dollars depending on location. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fanpuck33 Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 I pay $3.50 to see new movies. If it's a movie I want to see, but not at the top of my list, I wait till it gets to the $1.50 2nd run theater. If I want to save 50 cents, I'll go on "Buck Wild Wednesday." Movie, popcorns, 12 oz. beers, all a buck each. I could pay 7 bucks to go to a movie, but I don't go to the "popular" theater run by a huge company making millions off people dumb enough to pay that much when there are at least two theaters within 5 miles of it that cost half that much.

shortcat1 Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 All I can add to that is that 'Snakes In A Plane' won't take a bite out of my pocket at all. Not a dollar is going to slither out of my wallet. No coins are going to be rattled on their way to the cashier for my ticket. It won't be part of my personal hissstory that I'll have seen this movie. :king: :hlogo: :king: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
