Show R previews at G films We have had enough and we hereby publicly protest We and our children protest being bombarded with violent and brutal movie preview cli clips shown at childrens children's movies such sueh as Walt Disney productions and other G Grated Grated Grated rated films These preview clips are usually from films rated PG G and R The Thelast Thelast Thelast last Walt Disney movie shown in Vernal was preceded by film previews from two R movies Routine protests to the local theatre managers bring a first response of denial that the clips clip portray any violence or brutality Our response to that thatis is that we as adult parents recognize recognize- the deliberate violence and terror portrayed Inthe in inthe inthe the clips clip our cl children recognize it as violence and our friends recognize it as violence If the theatre managers and distributors cannot acknowledge the scenes for what they are we can only conclude that they have become examples of how people do indeed become desensitized to situations of violence and brutality The second response coming from Vernal theatre managers is that they are powerless to do anything about including the PG and R rated 0 previews If U this s is true surely our repeated and earnest protests could and should be forwarded to those people who DO determine these policies The buck stops stop somewhere in all cases 1 I Many of us ha have ve lived in other communities where childrens children's special matinees were routinely offered and NO movie previews were included at these showings Another plus to this alternative schedule is that a daytime showing is more suitable for younger school school- aged children to attend We feel that we as parents and children who purchase tickets to G rated movies should be heard and given some satisfaction in this matter malter by those who seek our patronage Elinor C.
