There were numerous, specific ads about Deadpool NOT being a kid’s movie - several of which starred Deadpool himself.

The point being made isn’t personal - only that your aunt should have known that Deadpool wasn’t appropriate for kids, both from the rating and from the specific ads made that stated “Deadpool is not for kids”.

I, personally, think the studio made an honest and upright effort to warn movie goers that Deadpool wasn’t in the same vein as the more family-friendly host of Marvel movies.

Oh for goodness sake, relax. You came on and about a movie you did not even see.

Anyone with two ounces of grey matter to rub together checks out a movie before taking their grand kids to see it.

You cannot post ignorant statements and then get mad when you are called on it.

And really...relax.

And I loved the movie. I think it’s hilarious that someone took their grand children to see it.

“she’s a little busy with other thing I wont go into.”

Too busy to look at the tickets she bought and see the “R”?
No sympathy here.

On the poster is a box that says “R – Restricted Under 17 requires accompanying parent or adult guardian for Strong violence and language throughout, sexual content and graphic nudity.” Doesn’t take much homework, just look at the poster. Really the movie companies pay a lot of money to get ratings and post the ratings and have the ratings expanded to include why, SPECIFICALLY trying to avoid the situation your aunt wound up in. It’s really not curmudgeonly to say she should have done her homework, it’s pointing out that tons of information was readily available to her and in less time than it took to get to the theater she could have known better.
