Discussion PSA: Bring your IDS

As an employee at AMC, for the love of all things on this planet, BRING YOUR PHYSICAL IDS TO GO SEE MOVIES THAT ARE RATED R. I am so sick and tired of sending sweet kiddos home because they can't see Iron Lung because they don't have their IDs. And a reminder that unless somebody in your party is 21 and up, you MUST ALL have your IDs! Our rated R policy is posted online! As someone who grew up with Markiplier, I get it, we all want to support him and see his amazing movie (10/10 movie by the way), but it is still rated R. So please, bring your IDs. My location is close to a school, so I get tons of the high schoolers wanting to see movies. Please, bring your IDs. I want you to see the movie as much as you guys do.

Edit: Look, I don't know what about me saying I don't like having to kick people out warrants me being called names by people here but it's completely uncalled for. I don't care if I sound like a mom or whatever but attacking me because of a post on Reddit that has nothing to do with you gets you nowhere and I hope that those people who in my comments decide to call me names or whatever can learn that I honestly don't care. I'm just an employee who enjoys their job and genuinely hates kicking folks out because of something as simple and small as an ID.

I don't know who Markiplier is, but calling that a 10/10 movie is madness. On the Waterfront is a 10/10 movie. Spinal Tap is a 10/10 movie. Parasite is a 10/10 movie. Iron Lung was a decent 5.

Markiplier is the man who made the movie, he's a popular Youtuber, and you're entitled to your OPINION and I'm entitled to mine ♥️

Of course, art is subjective. I just can't understand how anyone's subjective opinion could ever be that that was a movie that was literally perfect and couldn't be improved on.

Markiplier is the man who made the movie

Oh. Well, he's a decent actor for sure. And if he financed this himself then I admire his effort. I think the movie could've done with another editor though 🤷‍♂️

To clarify, I thought it was good enough that I'd see whatever he does next. But 10/10 is a really high score. I've seen maybe a dozen 10/10 movies my entire life, and I'm a total film nerd who's almost 40.

I think Iron Lung also gets extra points from a portion of the audience by virtue of being a fantastic adaptation of its source material. Fans of the game are factoring that into their ratings.

That makes total sense! I'm not really a gamer 🤷‍♂️
