Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.

It's Them, Not Me: The Summer of the Kid Movies

Is it me, or are there an inordinate amount of movies out this summer geared for the kid market? It seems that is all there is.

Anytime I go to the movies or drive by, there are L-O-T-S of kids standing in line, many without parents. Have parents found a cheap alternative to babysitters?

What happened to adult movies, and I'm not talking about the Triple X variety, but ones that would bore kids, you know, without the cuteness and constant action?

Here's a list of guaranteed-to-please-a-kid movies playing at the Round Lake Beach Regal Theaters:

Aliens in the Attic
G Force
GI Joe: The Rise of Cobra
Harry Potter: Half-Blood Prince
Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs
Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen

By the way, I enjoyed Transformers and Harry Potter. I have nothing against kids' movies.

Well, It Won't Be Long before the Little Rugrats Are Back at School, Except for the Home-Schooled Ones Who Can Go to the Kids Movies Anytime. --RoadDog
