yeah nothing says family-friendly like anal rape. who wants to explain that to their 5-year old?

What? I thought tonight was Ghostbusters?!

I think the SOTG movie at Strathmore tonight is Ghostbusters. Perhaps they couldn't get permission for Kite Runner?

I am going to be sorely disappointed if I show up expecting to sing along to the Ghostbuster's theme song, and instead have to watch the Kite Runner. Critically acclaimed, best-selling book be damned...I want to see some Dan Akroyd!

totally agree w/ fenster....
wtf - kite runner kid friendly? really? REALLY?...have mercy.

Apologies, apologies, it looks as though I was working off of an old schedule posted on About.com. Tonight's feature is indeed Ghostbusters. Maybe the Comcast folks realized the same thing you all did -- that The Kite Runner isn't family friendly.

Correction made.
