Found an old and very thumbed copy of Dam Busters today. I just scanned thru the book and read a chapter. They were so determined and so brave. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Chastise

My grandparents had that movie on VHS. Used to watch it all the time when visiting.

Great movie and one of my fave wwii movies , I got that new 4k th other week 👍 So finding this book, which I had never seen before in a shop was a real bonus.

Ah dang it. Minipeelers want to see the FNAF movie but it’s rated M. Knowing them (they love jump scares and horror themes) they could handle it, but they aren’t legally allowed to so they are more than a little upset about it!

My nearly 10yo went with his Dad. He loves the games, and has no trouble separating fiction from real life. He loved it! I will admit to a moment of questioning my decision, but you know your kids best, and you know if they’ll cope with a more mature film.

They’re both familiar with the games and the Elder loves the books. The separating reality from fiction is an important factor isn’t it. I’ve always been at pains to point out the difference, whether it’s a scene from a movie or a picture of an influencer lol

It’s a skill that not all kids have, that’s for sure! I will admit I didn’t see the movie with them, but my son’s biggest concern wasn’t any violence or bodily harm, it was that they didn’t follow the story that he knows to the letter.

My daughter says it’s OK as long as there’s parental guidance.

As long as an adult is with the child you could see the movie. She’s seen many M rated with her dad. Mostly marvel movies.

So I can take a 10 and 12 yo to see an M movie as long as I’m there to watch it with them? It would be cool if I don’t have to pretend they’re 15. Miniest would fail, although she said she’s suffering from a condition that makes her short 😂🤦🏻‍♀️

Yes. Exactly. Like I said to Bull my daughter has seen many marvel movies with her dad when she was younger which were rated M.

It looks like I’ve got shingles (appt later to confirm since I’m developing the symptoms my specialist on Wednesday said to keep an eye out for)… What a pain in the fkn arse!

That’s going to be an embarrassing email to my new section since it’s contagious to those who’ve not had chickenpox.
