No it isn't a Movie Review but it is about the Movies

Finally I am back to the movies but before I get to the review, I have an announcement to make, when you go to the movies bring an ID or verification of age if you are going to see an R rated film. Now to the story,yesterday around9:30 at nighta few of my friends and I went out to see Superbad so we all got tickets for the 10:10 showing. Everything was fine we got the tickets got popcorn played some video games as we waited until we could go in. When we are about to go hand in our tickets to go into the theater area a security gaurd stops us and a bunch of other people asking for IDs. Let me say this I am 17 I saw 300 without showing any ID when I was 16, I have donated blood and I have a donor card because of that, and finally I have a small gotee type thingy that a lot of people have. The only thing I don't have is my license, so what I still have my permit. But I have no verification of my age because my student ID doesn't have my birthdate on it, in fact only one of my friends had his ID, so what happened next you may be wondering, well I wish I could say we got in but we didn't, we had to go back to the ticket people and get refunds. In the end we ended up hanging out at my friends house and played, of all things The Movies, by the way a fun game I may end up buying today. Looking back on it today I should have shown my donor card with my school ID and said well you have to be 17 to donate blood right. But what was so stupid about the whole thing is that one of my friend's mom ended coming in and said we were all 17 or older and could see the movie but the guy was beeing all stubborn saying that she would have to see the movie too, why you may ask I don't know. Another thing that is so stupid is that I saw 300 before when I was not 17 with my two friends and never was asked how old I was. Finally I was ticked that if it mattered so much to show my ID wha wasn't I asked when I bought my ticket and why is it that a security gaurd is the one who stopped us. I totally understand the whole thing that the movies don't want younger kids seeing movies for older people, but I am legal age to see it and buy M rated games but I need ID and all I have is a permit. So there you go it was fun but I did have a lot of popcorn to eat with no movie to go along with it.
