A 'Must-Have' tool for every dad

This summer, our sons and daughters have a lot of choices when it comes to what movies are playing at the local theater. It almost seems this year several new movies are coming out each week.

It’s clear to me that the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) does a very poor job in the ratings department, and an even worse job is letting parents know what objectionable content is in a particular movie.

For example, a young lady I know recently posted on her Facebook page that she was going back to see Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen for a second time. Her parents had no idea that this PG-13 film contains extensive sexual scenes, violence, drug use, and 37 strong profanities. And, her Christian parents were shocked to learn that the Hollywood blockbuster used God’s name in vain 19 times!

As dads, it’s important that we know what our children and grandchildren are being influenced by. If we are going to trust the MPAA to do it for us, we’re in big trouble.

That’s why I want to share a website that offers the most complete movie reviews available. Screen It! is an independent website that reviews all major motion pictures and lists every conceivable objectionable element. And it’s free! OneMillionDads staff members have used Screen It! for years and have found it to be the best parental resource out there.

This is not a OneMillionDads.com offer or partnership. In fact, Screen It! isn’t even aware that I’m telling you about their great website. It’s simply a tool I believe will help you as a dad, to control what your children are seeing at the theater.

Screen It! posts the current movies showing at the theater. The website delays the newest movies for one week. (They are available the same day the film is released, with a small membership fee.)

If you’ve ever wanted to know anything about a current or older movie now on DVD, Screen It! needs to be in your “favorites” list. Please take a moment to visit the Screen It! website today and I think you’ll be glad you did! (The top of the page is an offer for membership. However, you can scroll down the page and immediately see the latest movie reviews for free!)

Thank you for caring enough to get involved. If you find our efforts worth supporting, would you consider making a small tax-deductible donation to help us continue?

Sincerely,

Donald E. Wildmon, Chairman
