Lots of spoilers aheadIn Revenge of the Sith, Anakin tells Windu his belief that Palpatine is the Sith Lord. Mace Windu then decides to head off with a group of Jedi to arrest Palpatine. Anakin expresses his desire to come along and help, but Windu denies his request and makes Anakin stay at the Jedi temple. Mace Windu and his Jedi friends head off to arrest Palpatine while Anakin stays behind and stews over the situation. What if Windu had allowed Anakin to come along? Would Palpatine have attacked Anakin as well, or would he have come along quietly?
Were your parents very strict (ie you had to be 17 to watch an R rated movie), or were they more relaxed?My parents were pretty relaxed for the most part. My Dad was not shy about watching R rated action or Sci-Fi flicks around us. When we went to the video rental stores my parents usually didn't bat an eye with our choices in movies unless friends were around.
I'd probably introduce them to the same movies my parents did with me.Wizard of OzE.T.Star Wars TrilogyGhostbustersBack to the FutureI'd also throw in Pixar films, and the occasional Schwarzenegger action flick.
The Empire Strikes BackAround 1985 or so my Dad bought our first VCR and the first movie we watched on it was The Empire Strikes Back and after that I was hooked on Star Wars, sci-fi movies, and just movies in general.
Honestly, I do not go to the theaters too often anymore. These days I only go to the theaters to see movies that I'm can't wait to see otherwise I wait for the movies to appear on Netflix or HBO.
I'd chalk this up to a very weak lineup, and perhaps people expecting too much. I also agree with Baumer about pirating, high costs, and more alternatives (Blu-Ray, Netflix, cable) effecting things.
