    Something similar happened when I saw the Final Fantasy movie. This blue-haired old lady walked in with her 7-8 year old granddaughter. They left shortly after a demon tore a soul from a living human.

    No idea why she thought it would be appropriate for a kid that age.

      An older lady and a kid were at South Park in the row in front of me. They didn’t make it 10 minutes.

      I think that a lot of people in the Boomer and older age ranges never really understood the idea of adult animation, so they just assume that animated shows and films are made for kids.

      (But my favorite Parker/Stone walk-out was the obviously Mormon couple who sat in front of us for the first 30 minutes of The Book of Mormon. The guy had the word “Mormon” embossed on his belt. They didn’t do their homework before they bought those tickets.)

        Was it released as a movie? Or do you mean the musical? If so, that’s the absolute best thing I’ve ever seen on stage. Also the only one that was so good I went to watch it a second time :-D

          It was the musical, so it was not a cheap ticket. I don’t know how they didn’t know it was not going to be supportive of their worldview.
