My grandma and I were both huge Stanley Kubrick fans and when Eyes Wide Shut was released we both wanted to see it, because Kubrick. And why not see it together because we’re both such big fans!

Don’t forget this was ‘99 so Neither of us saw a trailer or knew anything about the plot. It’s not like we could pull it up on YouTube.

So yeah. Saw Eyes Wide Shut in the theater with my grandma.

FatReverend@reddit

I'm a little confused. You say that you and your grandmother were huge fans of Stanley Kubrick yet neither of you knew of some of his previous films like Full Metal jacket or a Clockwork Orange.

[-]

NachoNachoDan@reddit

There’s not a lot of fucking in Full Metal Jacket.

IN THE THEATER? Dear lord. I hope you had a good therapist.

NachoNachoDan@reddit

lol I don’t think I’ve thought about this in decades.

I saw this subject and was thinking how lucky I was growing up because my parents were both vulgar as fuck, and gave zero fucks about anything we watched or said, it was weird if you weren't saying cocksucking mother fucking piece of shit log eating whore by the age of like 8 so, and I was gonna joke about that. My parents would crack up and cheer us on. I did not grow up in a traditional household.

But then I read your story. It changed everything. That is sincerely hilarious and fucked up. All at the same time.

This happened one time when we were watching a movie on HBO and not only did the woman get topless for a really long time, but the guy was rubbing ice cubes on her body and she was loving it.

My dad uncomfortably remarked, geez this movie is like Hooterville!

[-]

pendejo-san@reddit

The ice cube thing was very big in the 90’s.

🤣 Me my wife and my friend and his wife went to see this in a theater. We were all high as shit and us and the whole crowd were rolling in laughter, definitely my best theater experience. I felt bad for the amount of parents who unknowingly brought their children and they all got up and left in the beginning of the movie.

[-]

Phillyphil956@reddit

my dad used to tell me to cover my eyes.

[-]

Sanguine-Penguin711@reddit

My dad once threw himself in front of the tv to shield me from a nude woman in Critters 2. I (female) was 16 at the time and found it hilarious.

[-]

Prize_Ad6430@reddit

I'm just happy someone mentioned Critters. The first one kinda scared my little self.

[-]

draculawater@reddit

My dad did the same thing. Gore though? Watch away, young lad!

[-]

BobbyGuano@reddit

I am pretty lax with stuff and my 11 year old wanted to watch it and when he asked I realized that show is one of the few things I have to say no to.

We settled on Invincible instead, it’s animated and it’s got a lot of gore and sex scenes…but no nudity and the sex scene stuff is usually just people moaning in another room while the character on screen is annoyed they can hear it.

[-]

ConnectKale@reddit

Oh lord 11! My kid is adult age, It was soooo over the top. I glad his friends weren’t here. The reason I was asked to watch was because his friends bailed on their weekly watch party. Had no idea they were watching soft porn.

[-]

BobbyGuano@reddit

Oh yeah The Boys has some REAL fucked up sexual stuff in there 😆

[-]

cmgww@reddit

I saw Wedding Crashers with my parents and GRANDPARENTS!! Remember this was 2005 so we knew it would be a bit raunchy and my grandparents aren’t stuck up, but it wasn’t prepared for the multiple nude scenes…. Definitely felt a little awkward. They were good sports about it though.

This brought back some core memories:

1995, 15 years old, Clerks on VHS in my family room with my parents and my aunt and uncle. My uncle is a total movie snob from LA and the only movie in our small-town video store he would deign to watch was the independent black and white film that had garnered a lot of buzz but he knew nothing about.
2001, 20 years old, Y Tu Mama, Tambien in an art house theater with both my parents. There was one other group in the theater, 4 people about my age, and they kept looking back at me with pity after every scene.

[-]

DetectiveObjective00@reddit

Me, my cousins, and my aunt and uncle watching The Man in the Attic on rented VHS because we thought it was a horror film.

[-]

Beetso@reddit

It will never fail to blow my mind how incredibly uptight most people are about nudity. Censoring violence I can understand, censoring nudity, I just don't get it.

[-]

absentlyric@reddit

How can you not understand censoring sex yet somehow understand censoring violence? The implications go hand in hand.

[-]

BornTry5923@reddit

If you're watching at home, mom and dad could just fast forward through the scene

[-]

MyNameCannotBeSpoken@reddit (OP)

Why? What's going on with them mom?

I watched There's Something About Mary with my mom and stepdad. It wasn't the edited cut. I about turned inside out with cringe.

[-]

Jupitersd2017@reddit

Oh it’s wayyyyyy worse now - it’s almost every show for no reason and the scenes are incredibly long. Most 80’s movies were a kiss outside the bedroom and fade to black. It’s so uncomfortable and unnecessary

Me watching American Beauty with my parents in 1999

[-]

adiosmith@reddit

OK, I have best story about this...

In my younger years I had a roommate from Uzbekistan who had never seen all the popular American movies and I loved watching through them all with him. His mom came to visit for a while. I came home from work and as I was walking through the door I look into the living room to see him and his mom watching Requiem for a Dream together 😲. It is exactly at the "@$$ to @$$" scene... I felt so bad, they had no idea what they had decided to watch together. I walked straight to my room, wanting no part of it. He laughed it off the next day, admitting it was terribly awkward, but he thought was a great movie.

[-]

tlivingd@reddit

Was visiting my parents and sure I’ll stay to watch burn after reading. Chair scene.

Welp looks like it’s time to go.

[-]

bookofgray@reddit

I had my mom over recently, and we’re like we should see Bone Temple in the theater. I had to change that up last minute because of all the ding-dong. I had to sell it like, well you haven’t seen the first one’s first

[-]

Turbulent_Tale6497@reddit

My dad rented Fast Time as Ridgemont High, because he thought it was a high school movie. I was 12.

It was awesome

[-]

Munchkin531@reddit

Omg I (female) watched Sorority Boys with my dad. 💀 I had no idea there were going to be so many sexual jokes. I had to get up and leave the room! It was so awkward.

[-]

JackSpadesSI@reddit

Too true. My dad always got up and left the room. Not because he was too prudish about the sex, but because of the awkwardness of sharing it with us kids in the room. I always thought that was funny because it would draw less attention to it if he just sat there.

My family at Titanic.

[-]

RedDirtPreacher@reddit

My mom would take me and my little brother to see movies with my grandpa a few times a year after my grandma died to get him out of the house, etc. Saw Titanic in the theater with them as a 13 year old boy. Embarrassing, yes, but I reveled in every unexpected second. I remember thinking, BOOBS!Don’t look at mom, don’t look at mom, don’t look at grandpa, don’t look at mom, am I acting too interested, act casual. BOOBS!

So that was fun.

When I was a teen my Mom rented Baby Boy (with Tyrese) had no idea it was gonna be that kind of movie, never ever ever again

Also saw Jerry Maguire at friends house, her Dad ofc walked in and watched the scene with Tom and Kelly with us, lost all my oxygen

[-]

Had that happen while watching Frankie and Johnny with my parents.

[-]

jhotenko@reddit

When I was 14, I watched American Pie with my Brothers and their wives. They're all solidly Gen X and were in their 30s at the time.

It was awkward. I think my brother got yelled at pretty good by his wife for suggesting renting that one.

[-]

Tylerdurden389@reddit

I watched the terminator a thousand tines as a kid and my parents would make me cover my eyes during my the sex scene, or theyd fast forward it. Rewatched it in the theater with my Dad for its 40th anniversary so I made that scene my bathroom break lol.

[-]

AshDogBucket@reddit

This is why i hate the American Pie movies. I only watched the first one. Because my cousin thought it'd be a great family movie for me, my brother, my cousins, my parents, aunt and uncle, AND NANA.

BTW we attended evangelical high school at the time.

I don't think in my life theres ever been a 2 hour stretch that was more embarrassing

It didn't have a complete sex scene, but the first time I watched BTTF, it was with my mom and I was a teen.

Lol my dad took me and my younger brother to see True Lies in the theater. "Don't tell you mom" and "Why the fuck would I tell mom?!" was silently communicated.

And now we get to relive it all over again with our kids. Although we usually laugh about how ridiculous the scenes are and how uncomfy we all are. Better than pretending it's not weird.

First time that I watched True Lies on home video, I was sitting in the living room with my grandmother and when we got to the scene with Jamie Leigh Curtis in the hotel room, I couldn't stop laughing (because it was uncomfortable watching that with my grandmother). I was about 14 at the time.

[-]

mattjh@reddit

My dad would make me turn around and face the couch until he gave the all-clear. Which was impossible when we saw Total Recall in the theater. There was nothing he could do about his son staring at three breasts. Turning point in our relationship.

My wife recommended Borat to a colleague who watched it with his parents. She didn’t warn them.
