What's the most embarrassing film you've watched with your parents?

[Locut0s]

For me I'd say Bruno which I watched a few days ago. We are an extremely open family about just about everything and I've seen thousands of films with my parents but I have to admit that was a bit awkward. lol My father loved the film though.

1. I was six or seven years old, and I wasn't embarrassed, but my dad sure was.

He and Mom had taken my sister and me to the drive-in to see "True Grit," and (between reels, I guess) they showed a trailer for X- or R-rated "Fanny Hill" with bare boobies bouncin' around all over the place. My dad made my sister and me duck down in the back seat until the trailer was over. :rofl:

2. When I was 8 or 9 My dad took me and 3 of my sisters to see

a Kung Fu movie that was full of boobs and sex and everything.
But that may not count because he was passed out drunk in the front seat of the car.
The same car that he would drop us off at home in before he went to his girlfriends house.
:) Good ole dad. :sarcasm: (Ain't I a buzz kill) :rofl:

[Mutley]

3. I can't remember the name of this movie.

But when I was in high school, my dad rented this low-budget, indie vampire movie. It was rated R, so I expected some level of "mature content", but it didn't take either of us long while watching it to realize that this thing could easily have been classified as soft-core porn. That was definitely awkward.

28. Embrace of the Vampire?

A mid 90s vampire flick starring a frequently naked Alysa Milano? It might have been more porn than horror, but Milano's performance was still a tour de force... in my pants.

4. I was going to say "Bruno"....

I took my kids to the video store last night and
they came out with "Bruno"...I was mildly interested
in seeing it, but if I had known how GRAPHIC is was,
I would NEVER have rented it for them.

I watched it with them though, it seemed ridiculous
to jerk it out of the player.

I think that's it for Mr. Baron Cohen around here.

I'm usually OK with sexual allusions, especially
if it's done with a light touch or broad comedy.

This was TOO much for ME, let alone my teens.

5. Chasing Amy

10 mins in my mom left, perhaps the most awkward 10 mins of my life, and I'm sure my bro, sis, and bf at the time felt the same way. She just left first.

[TheCentepedeShoes]

39. IIRC that was

the one with nothing but f-bombs?
The BF rented it and we lasted about 10 min also

[styersc]

6. I'd have to say that it was the up close video of my birth.

I'd have to say that, if it wasn't for the homemade video of my conception.

Dad loved that video camera.

[Locut0s]

22. Haha lol yeah that might just be the most akward of all. Nt

[krispos42]

43. Yikes

Just... yikes.



Gawd, now I have an image of the parents doing the play-by-play... :yoiks:

[achtung_circus]

7. Taboo, with Kay Parker.

especially the end.....

[Locut0s]

23. Wow that's straight up porn if I'm right about the film. Good porn mind you but watching that with..

Family! Lol I have a thing for vintage porn ;)

[tabbycat31]

8. Knocked Up

[Bennyboy]

9. TRIBES...in theaters right during the Vietnam umbriglio

And man oh man did this film piss my WWII vet father. last film I saw with him.


I did watch the "Blueboy" Episode of Dragnet while getting off on acid while waiting for my friend to go to a Doobie Brothers concert back in 72. Stupidest shit I ever saw. No wonder there is a "War on Drugs"....

[mitchum]

29. I watched the Blueboy episode online just a couple of weeks ago

What a hoot!

[Kat45]

10. Eddie Murphy "Raw"

No shit! I was probably in my twenties, I think. When it was on HBO I put it on at their house. I didn't know just how raunchy it was. I can't remember if it was my mother or my father who left the room first, but both did. Meanwhile, I was sitting there laughing so hard I had tears rolling down my cheeks, including when they were still in the room. :rofl:

[Brickbat]

11. I was 16 and saw "Platoon" with my dad.

Even though I had snuck into it already, I went to go see it with him so I could pretend that was the first time I'd seen it and we could talk about it. I knew what was coming, but it was weird to watch it with him, with all the swearing. The rape scene, also awkward.

[donheld]

12. I never watched a film with my parents

The didn't believe in them

[Initech]

13. Bad Santa

[murielm99]

19. LOL!

Really?

I watched this with my daughter, who was in college at the time. We both laughed our asses off.

My parents would not have been amused, though.

[Initech]

27. My dad and I were laughing our asses off.

My mom saw about 10 minutes of it and quit watching.

"I'm an eating drinking shitting fucking Santa claus. "

[madmom]

14. My newly married hubby and I went with my parents to see Porky's, it was kind of

unnerving setting next to my mother, who had up until that moment, seemed to me to be very conservative.

[Sparkly]

15. Ummm... "The Sound of Music?"

:shrug:

[begin_within]

16. I saw "The Groove Tube" with my Dad and stepmother!

When it first came out in theaters, I think 1974. My Dad was 57 and his wife a bit younger, but they were both very conservative. We sat through the whole movie, but I think they were aghast at the nudity and commented about it later, and I said I wasn't offended (I was only 14). I think I was embarrassed by seeing it with them, although I wouldn't have been embarrassed seeing it with friends my age.

[Orrex]

17. I saw Clash of the Titans with my uncle

He's actually a very cool guy, but I was about 10 and barely knew him at the time.

Roll opening credits, then jump to a clear shot of Danae's boobies, followed eventually by Andromeda's Kraken-attracting hiney. I was mortified!

[LostInAnomie]

18. Anal Invaders 12

It just wasn't on par with the previous 11.

[Locut0s]

24. Haha lol.

[av8rdave]

20. Tunnelvision

[realisticphish]

21. Revenge of the Nerds

I know, weird, but I had always only seen it on TV. I didn't know there was nudity (in the part where they install the cameras).

Awkward

[mulsh]

25. Caligula- the unrated version.

My dad was a bit of a movie and history buff as was my mom. It was released in simultaneously to stores and theater as I recal. I'd heard about the movie but I rarely read reviews. Caligula was my favorite Ceasar when I was young. Anyway I popped the film in. Mom left in the middle of the first sex scene, Dad followed her shortly after. I made it through the scene where the servant gets filled with wine then sliced open. I ended up watching the whole thing through out the day while my parents were out. Crappy movie, I've felt ambivalent about butter ever since.

A couple of weeks later one of their oldest friends came up to the bay area from San Diego, rented the same version and insisted my mother watch it with him. She never forgave him she made it through the wedding scene.

[LynneSin]

26. "Best Little Whorehouse in Texas" with my mother

She wanted to see it because she wanted to see Dolly Parton sing. She had no clue what a whorehouse was.

I was only 15 but said I would go with her. Perhaps I should have warned her.

[wickerwoman]

30. The Aristocrats

My brother wanted it for Christmas, so here we all were in our turkey daze saying "what should we watch after Christmas dinner... Hey! This has Jon Stewart..."

We made it through about eight minutes. The longest eight minutes of my life... and I swear like a sailor even in front of my parents.

[Throd]

31. A cartoon called "Deep Sympathy" (1991) I saw with my mom

It is available on YouTube, but I should warn you that it is NOT SAFE FOR WORK!

[Locut0s]

33. Lol that's actually quite a funny little cartoon.

[Hell Hath No Fury]

32. A porn film.

My 60 year old Mom had never seen one so my sister and I rented one and we all watched it together. :D With lots of audience comments and laughing. We made it around half way through before we turned it off.

[Locut0s]

34. Which one was it. What was your moms reaction?

[gmoney]

35. Well, in a different way...

Within a week or two of my mom's passing, my sister and I figured we'd watch a couple movies with my stepfather (who was also very sick) to cheer him up.

(slight spoilers ahead)

So we picked up "Fierce Creatures" and "Shooting Fish" which we both remembered as just lighthearted comedies... but we both managed to forget that a large part of the plot of each deals with dead bodies. "Fierce Creatures" kind of does the "Weekend at Bernie's" bit about moving the corpse around pretending it's alive, and "Shooting Fish" has a funeral and cremation which is also in rather poor taste. (my mom was cremated)

Although he said it didn't bother him, and realized we didn't plan it, I still feel bad about it.

[rbnyc]

36. I win.

I saw "I Spit on your Grave" at the drive-in with my dad when I was a "tween."

[nomorenomore08]

44. A Pyrrhic victory if I ever heard of one...

:scared::scared::scared:

[nickinSTL]

37. That's easy - Oh! Calcutta!

with my mom, when I was 17.

Comedic nude musical with sex-themed skits - wow, that was uncomfortable.

And this from my mom, whose approach to sex ed was, "You learned about this in school, right?"

If you're not familiar with it...

[pitohui]

38. my dad won't go to the movies

my mom does not get embarrassed

so it would be hard to say

[GoCubsGo]

40. Blazing Saddles

Except that nobody was embarrassed by it. I was 15 when it came out. My parents, my 3 siblings, and I saw it in a drive-in. I most remember laughing our heads off over the campfire scene.

[w8liftinglady]

41. lol...I watched Bruno with my mom and my teenage sons

we laughed the whole time...the awkward ridiculousness of it was unbelievable.

[Locut0s]

45. LOL. The scenes with his short Asian boyfriend are classic.

[Dramarama]

42. 7 Pounds

[tigereye]

46. I can't wait to see that - I love Baron-Cohen's films...

I laughed hysterically during Borat.
