Make A Wish Foundation On the set of Deadpool 2
muldin80
Ryan reynolds is fucking awsome
marcosocram
Still a R rated movie.
foxatomic
Pretty sure he’s filming like a ten minute walk from my apartment. At the Vancouver art gallery. Neat.

As a makeawish kid, I fucking approve. +1
igorbarenschlager
They actively marketed R-rated movies to kids in the 80s/90s. Terminator, Robocop, and Rambo all had action figures.
astorythatshellneverforget
Do people also forget that deadpool is a comic book and video game character. They probably saw the movie, but not necessarily

Life isn’t G rated.

ElbowDeepInAHeadlessHorseman
It's not like rated R means no kids. It just means no unaccompanied kids. Assumes the parents will know if their child is mature enough.
ElbowDeepinaTinyOctopus
The kids are going to a movie SET for an R movie. Unless they chose to invite the kids on Naked Sex Shooting Day, they'll be fine.
JaxDagger
I still wouldn't be bothered if I had a kid and someone was nude on set xD why make the physical form out to be something that needs hiding?
I'd say the same, but I suspect having a kid can change one's perspective on introductions to complex social/cultural/moral issues.
HouseOfEvil
If I had a kid that wasn't going to live long enough to meet the age requirement, I'd let them watch Deadpool too.
quattroformaggix4
Thought the same thing
the4getful
Ya, I may be wrong but I think most kids in the Make-a-Wish where they fulfill a wish is likely terminal or has a low survivability rate :(
WhiteWolfSix
I'm glad I get to bring the good news that ~70% of Make A Wish kids survive into adulthood.

Wow, so all that effort is not wasted on almost-dead people after all.

Fuck I watched R rated movies when I was 11 anyways.

You know why I was able to handle 'R-rated' things as a kid, and become a functional a contributing adult? Parents that (1)

It's not the case for everyone tho. Some kids are more mature / their mind is ready for violence more than others, clearly. Not black&white
put things into proper context, and took the time to talk to me. Not shelter me from it. (2)
imgonnahurtu
There's degrees here. Dead Pool is adult, but pretty child like in a lot of ways. Likewise, most children 8+ can watch something like - 1/3
Alien and, as long as they're talked through it, be fine. But showing disturbing images to a child who's too young and hasn't developed -2/3
critical thinking WILL hurt them. Also, no child deserves to see crap like A Serbian Film. 3/3
Alavar
Adults shouldn't even watch Serbian Film. Shock films suck ass.

If your kid might not make 18, let them watch rated R movies if they want to. This isn't really that hard, is it?
Nymeria298
but they aren't actually watching anything.... they're just meeting "Deadpool" and seeing the set??
amelsander
Ryan Reynolds has been Deadpool since birth, if you look at 2guys a girl and a pizza place you can see i am right.

R does not mean kids can't see it. It means parental guidance required.

Parental guidance suggested.

True, but there's a line. I want to teach my kids about real life, but they probably shouldn't see Deadpool get pegged before a certain age
Really? you are worried your kids are gona get warped from hearing him go "oomph no no no" while a camera films renolds face only? lol

giveitarestalready
R-rated Hollywood action films are hardly "the world".
Froglip
Hardcore violence, torture and decapitations are usually not part of the normal life and shouldn't necessarily be seen by kids.
LusciousLucius
There's a lot of things around now-a-days that wouldn't be part of a "normal life" just decades ago. Still gotta teach them how to handle it
derpisasderpdoes
Like that new Black Mirror episode
Remember when there was kissing or sex on TV, your parents told you to look away untill they thought you were old enough to watch?
Nope I don't... lol because seeing some simulated sex on TV meant absolutely nothing until you understood it anyway.
Theodrian
Yes, needless, puritanical censorship.
Nargawal
Been watching R rated movies with my mom since I was 7 and almost no nightmares after she told that our dog would never anything hurt me...
Same grew up on family movie nights terminator robocop, why? because I knew it was a movie, anyone not making kids understand that need help
Probably the best thing she could've done for me because looking back she toughened me up for real world shit better than some friends were
Corrodias
Isn't this Reynolds the same guy in that popular picture telling kids to get the fuck out of the theater, for the first Deadpool movie?
They had to make it known to adults that this "superhero" film was not aimed at kids because otherwise many parents would be up in arms.
It had nothing to do with renolds point of view, it was marketing that made them point that out as often as they could for the movie sake.
These look to be teens / tweens, rather than 'kids'. That said, the kids in the theater weren't make-a-wish kids.
reicaden2
Why does this not have more votes? Yes yes and yes... which is it, either he's against kids watching it or for kids watching. Can't b both.
Well, it can be both, "normal kids shouldn't watch it but dying ones can", but I want to be clear on this and figure out why the difference.
HisBabes
He explained it in the tweet. Those kids are going through painful hell with treatments, surgeries, sickness etc. mature before they -
should be, while a regular kids is still mostly innocent (hopefully) & should ain’t until they’re a little more mature.
Hoaxme70
indeed, most of them have to deal with more adult shit than most adults will have to deal with
SlowerDwightYouIgnorantSlut
There’s a balance there. You don’t want your kids shell shocked by the world, but you also want to keep them as innocent as possible for /1
As long as possible. It’s tough decide how to introduce some of these things when they’re young.
Why do we want to keep them naïve?
The fact you have -9 pts from simply asking a very basic question should tell you the mentality of most the "adults" here, it is quite sad.
Because it's a stupidly suggestive question. Why aren't we confronting kids from age 2 with everything bad there is in the world?
MrsMojave
"Innocence" is more about waiting for them to be mature enough to know what to do with the info they get. If they learn something before...
...you can explains it then don't play dumb. Teaching kids is an important job of parents, but you don't have to expose them to very...
Innocent, because they’re children and they should be able to stay innocent for as long as possible.
How do you measure innocence exactly??? so they should keep it into adulthood? now THAT is warped.
tomayto/tomahto, but you essentially just repeated yourself. *Why* should we want them to be able to be that way? That's what I asked.
It's never too early to teach kids to deal with the shit this world will heap on them. Like school shootings.
If you show a four year old kid a graphic rape scene, that kid will be taken away from you, and with good right.
Not true. Young kids don't yet have the reasoning ability/critical thought to process disturbing info in a healthy way. You can end up (1)
creating unhealthy thought processes/coping mechanisms if you expose them to disturbing shit too early. Lessons must be age appropriate. (2)
Uglysteve
Um...no. Ask any psychologist what kind of damage you can do to children by exposing them to this crap too early.
latinsaint
Exactly why every other country shows nudity and doesn't censor language. USA is a bunch of prude pricks!
FreedomWaffles
and with the PC crowd it will only get worse.
BarretXIII
Won't somebody PLEASE think of the children!?!!!
somepersondoingsomethings
With the advent of the internet, nothing is really censored here anymore. Netflix originals have nudity/violence with no warning.
jayharrisbb6
They have the ratings which tell you about it before it starts. IMO that's an we should need

Not really it's just the prude pricks bark the loudest
warmNchewey
You can thank the church for that.

Yeah. European countries aren’t known for having any religious affiliations.

JamJarre
Well that's not true at all. Almost every country has age classification
DeTobiasch
Here in the Netherlands you can swear as much as you want on tv, at any time. Full nudity and sex only after 20:00.
We rate sex above violence, one of the only ones in the first world to do so.

VaDamian
A lot of the best stuff from the 90s was rated R. And we loved it, mostly because we saw it as kids.
Pawnderlust
Parents used to take us to the drivein we'd watch the family movie and "sleep" through the R rated. Saw so many movies that way
CrusherOfCities
They knew. Everyone knew. Terminator, Aliens, Predator, RoboCop, etc... Every single one lined the shelves of Toys'R'Us.
leinheart711
To be 4 and watch terminator cut out his eye.
Honestly I'm bothered more by movies that hold back from being rated R. It feels like they don't want to full tell the story.
Lunaki82
Who remember Night of the Creeps ? And the Blob! :o

In the 80s we had Porky’s. I learned at a young age a few of the places you don’t want to put your dick.

First R movie i ever saw was Starship Troopers when i was 10. Can't begin to tell you what that was like.

Mom took me to see the original Robocop when I was 7. It was awesome.

most of the time it was my dad renting them on VHS. He didn't seem to care about ratings on movies. We watched them all.

The ratings were harsher back then too, blues brothers got an R rating because of swearing and a joke about a used condom

One Timex digital watch, broken. One unused prophylactic. One soiled. One black suit jacket, one pair black suit pants. One hat, black.
SlightlyDodgy
My dad ran a mobile video hire store in UK before VHS required certification. I watched everything! I was the only kid at school to see /1
/2 all the horror movies. Horror movies are so meh these days. The rating system is junk anyway. It's all about supervision and education
If u educate a kid Bout whats going on on TV and moderate viewing most films are ok, especially as films are made for 15's to get more views

Did you remember to change the channel to Disney then Nickelodeon so the Last Channel button couldn't rat you out?
Unfortunately, it was during the days of VHS so there was no real changing of the channels. I had to either turn it off or swap to static.

I didn't realize T2 was rated R; I wonder if it would be if it was made today.

Absolutely. A dude got impaled through the milk carton. Linda Hamilton and Arnold got fucked up in the final setpiece. PG13 is p sterile
I guess you're right; The line between PG13 and R is so thin these days though lol.

Been watching R rated movies with my mom since I was 7 and almost no nightmares after she told that our dog would never anything hurt me...
JaxDagger
Same grew up on family movie nights terminator robocop, why? because I knew it was a movie, anyone not making kids understand that need help
Nargawal
Probably the best thing she could've done for me because looking back she toughened me up for real world shit better than some friends were
Corrodias
Isn't this Reynolds the same guy in that popular picture telling kids to get the fuck out of the theater, for the first Deadpool movie?
JaxDagger
They had to make it known to adults that this "superhero" film was not aimed at kids because otherwise many parents would be up in arms.
JaxDagger
It had nothing to do with renolds point of view, it was marketing that made them point that out as often as they could for the movie sake.
imgonnahurtu
These look to be teens / tweens, rather than 'kids'. That said, the kids in the theater weren't make-a-wish kids.
reicaden2
Why does this not have more votes? Yes yes and yes... which is it, either he's against kids watching it or for kids watching. Can't b both.
Corrodias
Well, it can be both, "normal kids shouldn't watch it but dying ones can", but I want to be clear on this and figure out why the difference.
HisBabes
He explained it in the tweet. Those kids are going through painful hell with treatments, surgeries, sickness etc. mature before they -
HisBabes
should be, while a regular kids is still mostly innocent (hopefully) & should ain’t until they’re a little more mature.
Hoaxme70
indeed, most of them have to deal with more adult shit than most adults will have to deal with
SlowerDwightYouIgnorantSlut
There’s a balance there. You don’t want your kids shell shocked by the world, but you also want to keep them as innocent as possible for /1
SlowerDwightYouIgnorantSlut
As long as possible. It’s tough decide how to introduce some of these things when they’re young.
Corrodias
Why do we want to keep them naïve?
JaxDagger
The fact you have -9 pts from simply asking a very basic question should tell you the mentality of most the "adults" here, it is quite sad.
AcidOPhilus
Because it's a stupidly suggestive question. Why aren't we confronting kids from age 2 with everything bad there is in the world?
MrsMojave
"Innocence" is more about waiting for them to be mature enough to know what to do with the info they get. If they learn something before...
MrsMojave
...you can explains it then don't play dumb. Teaching kids is an important job of parents, but you don't have to expose them to very...
SlowerDwightYouIgnorantSlut
Innocent, because they’re children and they should be able to stay innocent for as long as possible.
JaxDagger
How do you measure innocence exactly??? so they should keep it into adulthood? now THAT is warped.
Corrodias
tomayto/tomahto, but you essentially just repeated yourself. *Why* should we want them to be able to be that way? That's what I asked.
masstrip
It's never too early to teach kids to deal with the shit this world will heap on them. Like school shootings.
AcidOPhilus
If you show a four year old kid a graphic rape scene, that kid will be taken away from you, and with good right.
robthelob20
Not true. Young kids don't yet have the reasoning ability/critical thought to process disturbing info in a healthy way. You can end up (1)
robthelob20
creating unhealthy thought processes/coping mechanisms if you expose them to disturbing shit too early. Lessons must be age appropriate. (2)
Uglysteve
Um...no. Ask any psychologist what kind of damage you can do to children by exposing them to this crap too early.
latinsaint
Exactly why every other country shows nudity and doesn't censor language. USA is a bunch of prude pricks!
FreedomWaffles
and with the PC crowd it will only get worse.
BarretXIII
Won't somebody PLEASE think of the children!?!!!
somepersondoingsomethings
With the advent of the internet, nothing is really censored here anymore. Netflix originals have nudity/violence with no warning.
jayharrisbb6
They have the ratings which tell you about it before it starts. IMO that's an we should need
mikeatc
Not really it's just the prude pricks bark the loudest
warmNchewey
You can thank the church for that.
ecstaticbanana
Yeah. European countries aren’t known for having any religious affiliations.
JaxDagger
Sorry but most European coutries don't build MEGA churches and obsess over it like the US does. Religion in your country is beyond fucked.
CycloneSP

ErrareHumanumEww
This is epic.
brianvoncat
Different countries have different reasons. US is religiously driven
JaxDagger
Which is extremely scary to those outside the US who just see a religiously bent country who put an imaginary being before basic humanity.
priestsaresotouchy
Here, I can't buy a car or liquor on a Sunday, or cold full strength beer at all. Tattoos were still illegal until 2006. Churches run you?
sunyudai
Sarcasm noted, but nowadays you are also better at keeping the religious nutjobs out of public office.
sunyudai
(note, I said "better", not "perfect", I know of exceptions over there....)
JamJarre
Well that's not true at all. Almost every country has age classification
DeTobiasch
Here in the Netherlands you can swear as much as you want on tv, at any time. Full nudity and sex only after 20:00.
Theodrian
We rate sex above violence, one of the only ones in the first world to do so.
TheBlueMuppet
Wait till you hear about Britain.
PrinceSatisfactory
Lol
JaxDagger
What about Britain? I live in England and religion isn't all that serious here neither are we prudes. Try going out at the weekend here xD

The law was proposed less than a year ago and wasn't exactly voted on by the public... so what is your point? the goverment want this 1/2
VaDamian
A lot of the best stuff from the 90s was rated R. And we loved it, mostly because we saw it as kids.
Pawnderlust
Parents used to take us to the drivein we'd watch the family movie and "sleep" through the R rated. Saw so many movies that way
CrusherOfCities
They knew. Everyone knew. Terminator, Aliens, Predator, RoboCop, etc... Every single one lined the shelves of Toys'R'Us.
leinheart711
To be 4 and watch terminator cut out his eye.
Hybris51129
Honestly I'm bothered more by movies that hold back from being rated R. It feels like they don't want to full tell the story.
Lunaki82
Who remember Night of the Creeps ? And the Blob! :o
koldfusion
In the 80s we had Porky’s. I learned at a young age a few of the places you don’t want to put your dick.

Robocop
MutantTurd
As a kid I wore out our VHS copy of Revenge of the Nerds. Not for the nudity but because I though Booger was hilarious.
HeroHadley
First R movie i ever saw was Starship Troopers when i was 10. Can't begin to tell you what that was like.
8hourgamer
Mom took me to see the original Robocop when I was 7. It was awesome.
UmmonPrime
most of the time it was my dad renting them on VHS. He didn't seem to care about ratings on movies. We watched them all.
CPTNNemo
true, and if you were scared afterwards that was your fucking problem for watching something you shouldn't have :D oh good old times
AKittenPrincess
I remember being like 5 and watching goodfellas and terminator
Etazin
Watched “species” from behind my couch. I was maybe 6 years old. Terrified. Awesome.
efemral
I actually remember being really badly affected by some scenes in movies when I was too young. But I'm a sensitive person.
3654798521
The first 2 scary movies!!! then they all went to shit...
IAimtoMisbehaveNotLikeThatOtherSpacePirate
I was six watching X-Files and Tales from the Crypt.
DinoKebab
Yeh! Like the lion king.
ferretsandtgirlsshowmewhatyougot
Pretty sure Power Rangers was worse than any R rated movie lol.
LeftHandPanda
I watched the first Terminator when I was 8 or 9. The eyeball scene scared the shite out of me
buttbuttpartywagon
The ratings were harsher back then too, blues brothers got an R rating because of swearing and a joke about a used condom
keillrandor
One Timex digital watch, broken. One unused prophylactic. One soiled. One black suit jacket, one pair black suit pants. One hat, black.
SlightlyDodgy
My dad ran a mobile video hire store in UK before VHS required certification. I watched everything! I was the only kid at school to see /1
SlightlyDodgy
/2 all the horror movies. Horror movies are so meh these days. The rating system is junk anyway. It's all about supervision and education
SlightlyDodgy
If u educate a kid Bout whats going on on TV and moderate viewing most films are ok, especially as films are made for 15's to get more views
Comet260
The 90's were awesome. Born '87.
Noob3rts
I remember sneaking downstairs to watch Under Siege with them tiddies in the cake. VIOLENCE AND NUDITY. A teens dream!
twisster76
Did you remember to change the channel to Disney then Nickelodeon so the Last Channel button couldn't rat you out?
Noob3rts
Unfortunately, it was during the days of VHS so there was no real changing of the channels. I had to either turn it off or swap to static.
GreetingsPrograms
Omg I used to do that hahaha good memories
Fairdinkums
I was bought up on terminator and robocop
WrongUn
Same. When they blow Murphy to bits at the beginning was my first violent scene. I was 4. Bad parenting but fuck it, I'm fine
ScaryScarab
I didn't realize T2 was rated R; I wonder if it would be if it was made today.
deebaser
Absolutely. A dude got impaled through the milk carton. Linda Hamilton and Arnold got fucked up in the final setpiece. PG13 is p sterile
ScaryScarab
I guess you're right; The line between PG13 and R is so thin these days though lol.

You were purchased, "bought up"? That sounds as traumatizing as when we watch robocop as young children. : )

DerpNerpem
Ha..get a load of this guy with his responsible parents
Dongskanker
I had nightmares about dinosaurs for years and didn't know why.... until I watched Jurassic park and realized I saw it at 2-3 with no memory

For me, it was Phantasm and Total Recall that I watched in terror as a kid
