Monster House-anyone going to watch it?

[xmas74]

My six year old is begging to see it but I'm just not sure. A few of the reviews say that it should be for ages 10+ because of intense scary moments. My brother thinks I'm stupid and teaching her to be a wimp.

Anyone heard anything about the movie yet?

1. I love that uvula gag.

And the reaction on the girl's face.

I'm going to go see it. Looks like fun.

4. I wouldn't mind going

but my kid is so chicken about things and takes them to heart way to easy.

We usually have to wait for a movie to come out on dvd. The rule ends up being I have to watch it first and then decide what scenes to fastforward through. (I really wish I were joking.) Otherwise, she'll flip out if something is even remotely scary.

5. Oh, I'd take her.

Being scared is half the fun.

:shrug:

6. Not when you have to deal w/ the nightmares for the next

month. At her age my babysitter had me up watching Creature Feature w/ her every Saturday night, making fun of each scene from whatever B movie was on. My kid would never be able to do that.

I'll wait a couple of weeks and see what everyone has to say.

7. Eh.

This may sound silly now, but Bela Lugosi's Dracula scared the bejeebus out of me when I was a kid. Had nightmares for awhile too. But seeing that in the theater was one of my fonder memories.

8. I remember watching Creature from the Black Lagoon

when I was five w/ my babysitter. I was afraid of all forms of water (including the toilet) for a week. Now it's a great memory.

9. let's see 15, 11, 10, 6, and 4

11. I just don't know how my six year old will handle it.

She's touchy about so many things.

Let me know how the movie is. I'd like to know what I'm going into before I take her.

[newcriminal]

15. I think we are going to see it in 3D

[xmas74]

16. that would be really fun.

Let me know how it goes!

10. i thought it was a TV show on Discover?

They made a movie out of it?!?!? :shrug:

[xmas74]

12. They did have some kickass, white trash sort of places on

there.

Yep, I used to watch it on occasion.

[GoneOffShore]

13. I want to see it

But I'll wait for DVD.

The new Pixar flic that's coming out next year promises to be really funny - Ratatouille - about a gourmet rat living in Paris. Trailer is hilarious.
