Showing my little bro Dawn for the first time...

My dad actually. Creepshow was making its debut on Showtime back around '82 or '83. Neither one of us knew anything about it other than it was a horror movie. So, we watched it together. But that movie is pretty tame compared to a number of other movies around that time and much later. Unbelievable!!! So your dad showed you a film which was rated for something live FOUR times your age? Sheesh!

[slickwilly13]

Yeah, but he was watching it with me. So, if it was a movie that was too extreme such as nudity, etc, he would have not allowed me to watch it. Most R rated movies I watched as a kid was after my dad checked them out before. He would never allow me to watch any movie that had sexual scenes, graphic language and extreme violence *ex. Evil Dead*. Creepshow was a rare exception that was made. And that movie didn't become disturbing until towards the end.

My only gripe? Could he possibly hold his attention, at the age of 3, for that long? I doubt I ever could. Scared? I doubt it. Bored? A certainty!

I have a 3 year old nephew who is an avid fan of Top Gear. Whenever the show comes on, he is quiet and always tells everybody to "shhh" when they talk. He knows almost every brand of car on the market and it's because of this show. I would say that if a 3 year old boy likes what he sees then yeah, it'll hold his attention - BIG time!

Agreed, if they're into something - they're friggin' well into it in a big way. I was the same as a kid with a select few movies when I was a nipper. My Mum would always be like "geez, not this one again?!" as I'd just watch these movies over and over and over again, to the point where the entire films are now ingrained onto my subconscious. You're nephew sounds rather cool, Top Gear's awesome! I too have learnt so much about cars and such from that show...and had many a giggle in the process.
