What rock have you been living under?

There was precious little in this movie that hasnt appeared numerous times in other movies before. That you arent familiar with that is more evidence of your insularity that any condecension on my part.

"the [Scary Movie type] movie has NOT always been out there"
Well what do you define as a scary movie? Would Frankenstein, Dracula, Dr Jeckle & Mr. Hyde qualify? All films from the '30s in which innocents were stalked and murdered by evil? And in which audiences shrieked with fear (& delight). Sound vaguly like the basic plot of and number of teen slasher movies of the past two decades you've ever heard of?

And moral integrity and decency? Have I ever heard of it? Yep. I'm not the one who takes 9 year olds to R rated movies. Perhaps rather than registering your indignation publicly and decrying not being protected from your own errors you should instead take responsibity for your own actions. Thats what living in this country is about last time I checked. We have the opportunity to do as we please within the limits of the law, but no one can protect us from ourselves without curtailing our rights. That puts a bit of a burden on us as individuals. Deal with it.

And I would suggest that if you are such an authority on what the majority want perhaps you could expalin why this movie had the #1 grossing box office in the US this weekend @ $42.5 million?
