You have to be 17.  (It's really the only thing that makes turning 17 exciting, other than that 17 is an awesome age.)

Actually, I think under-seventeens are allowed to see an R-rated film if they're accompanied by an adult.

That said, if I was interested in seeing the Steve Jobs movie, I'd be totally crushed too.  I hate bad language.

Not having "bad" language in a movie about Steve Jobs would be ridiculous. He's famous for being a not very nice and arrogant person.

I heard something somewhere that Steve Jobs made that I was rather surprised about.

It is true, I've seen a kid who looked like he was 13 walk into see Mad Max (I think that's what it was.)

Well, yeah. But they could limit it like they did with the movies Jobs (which was cool, but according to Steve Wozniak, incredibly inaccurate)

I'd like to think I know a lot about the man, what did you hear?

True.  A 21-year-old, specifically, and not after 9pm.  (I think it's 9pm.)  They're strange rules.

I could be wrong but they don't rate movies R just for having bad language.

Well, they include the general reasons. Like, a movie say, Avengers (this may not be a true case example, it just popped into my mind) has Voilence, Language, Action Peril, intense images, suggestive humor listed in the trailer. But for Steve Jobs, it's just Language.
Must be really bad.

I know! *cries*
It's rated R, for of all things, LANGUAGE! That's the easiest thing to write OUT of a story! Euphemisms people!!

Hehe, one of my favorite movies, Attack the Block (Boyega, anyone?) was rated R for mature language and I didn't even care. Made the movie more enjoyable, in fact.

The first R-rated movie I saw was Blues Brothers, with my parents, when I was 8.  The language in it only increases the humour.  Most movies I watch are rated R, because I like action movies, but I agree that the excessive language used in some films has a negative effect on the film's quality.

That's funny, my dad and I once walked into the wrong theater room, we were wanting to see Age of Ultron, but we accidentally went into the Mad Max theater, as soon as we found out we left. (Not just because of R, but post apocalyptic movies are depressing.) ;D ;D
Dreams, dreams are untapped and writhing. How much more real are dreams than that paltry existence which we now call reality? How shall we ascend to that which humanity is destined? By mastering the dreamworld of course. That is how, my pupils, that is how.

Post apocalyptic movies are depressing?.... you mean they're:
Just pretend there is something interesting and unique written here... I have nothing to say.

   I haven't seen it, but I've heard Mad Max is really good.

If you really want to see it, download it online after it's been released and enjoy.
