[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I took my 2.5 & 4.5 year olds and thought it was fine.  It was certainly no more violent than when they play make believe Star Wars (and they've never seen Star Wars).  I really think people have become too sensitive if you think this movie was bad.

Do your kids act out torture scenarios?  You don't see any difference between acting out generic violence like cops and robbers, and tying someone down, making their "blood" heat up until they explode? Not only that, but even though they got the information they wanted, they killed him anyway. I thought it was pretty unnecessary.[/quote]

Come on!  You are taking this movie- and its "violence"- way too literally.  I'm not concerned that my child is going to start torturing people because he saw a movie where a car heated up the gas of another car.  I believe in sheltering kids, but this is too much.  [/quote]

It's not about sheltering them.  It's about the fact they cannot process such [b]extreme[/b] examples.   You can, but they can't.   And if they grow up seeing this stuff as the norm, they can develop irrational fears and/or become immune to the horror of violence.    I' not against violence in media, but it has to be age-appropriate.   This scene was not. [/quote]

Yes because talking self aware cars are so real [/quote]
To my 4 year old, they are. [/quote]

Agreed.  You need to look at it from a young child's perspective, not your own. [/quote]
