    I was just wonderin... I have a 11 year old daughter and 4 year old son. They both like to watch your typical animated/cartoon movies, but they really r more into adult style movies. Example, my son is watching Twister as we speak. One movie that my daughter liked since she was little, (and now my son loves) is Ghostbusters. They both will watch Uncle Buck, Great Outdoors, Goonies, etc... (yes I realize these movies have kids in them,) but they will also watch Die Hard if I let them. Does this seem odd to u, or is this just a matter of kids recognizing great movies? My 11 year old will even watch Halloween if my wife wouldn't get mad.

    if they start asking for Faces of Death, be very afraid. I started watching movies like Die Hard when I was like 11 or 12, I love a good action flick and always have. I also like games like Grand Theft Auto, as long as they have a story. (Ever play State of EmergencY? Horrible)

    BTW, I'm like probably one of the most peaceful people you'll ever meet, I've never once started a fight with anyone. Someone posted about a survey they did in high school and found that people who didn't play games with violence or watch movies with violence were actually more violent. I guess they just have no outlet for those feelings.

    the first action movie I ever saw in theatres was Terminator 2. I was nine years old I beleive. I think I had nightmares for days, but as soon as it came out on video I couldn't stop watching it...

    I watch Terminator when i was ten. After done watching i want to video store and rented terminator 2. It was one of the best movie. There's nothing scary about terminator. Even though is old movie is still good.

    the first one wasn't scar, but there was definately a few gross-out scenes, like when he cuts his eye out with a razor blade. T2 was more suspensefull than scary...an all time classic. have you guys seen the directors cut versions with added scenes? I love the one in the garage where they take his CPU out to switch it into learn mode, and john and sarah fight over smashing it

    I think there's three editions actually, the theatrical, directors cut, and one more. but if I recall correctly the directors cut has the most deleted scenes, and is definately the best version of the movie.

    I've got the Ultimate Edition, I think it was the most expensive DVD I've ever purchased (like $35).

    I had the ultimate edition, but sold it when they came out with the extreme edition. I think that might be the one with the directors cut, and it had a bunch of extra features. honestly not sure though, I haven't watched it in a while.

    Mother never let me watch PG-13 or R rated movies until I was 18. Now days I pretty much just watch porn.

    I'm still convinced he's someone else here just having a laugh, but I have no clue who it could be
