Expired

Every teenager tries to break the rules and, with this promo, it’s actually encouraged. (Of course, we’re not advocating mass chaos. Teenagers should still get their parents permission first. Actually, mom and dad can tag along, too.) The recently released (and critically-praised) independent film from comedian Bo Burnham, “Eighth Grade“, is Rated R. The adult rating means part of its target audience (teens!) can’t even see the film aimed to reflect their experience.

What does a movie studio do to fix the problem? On Wednesday, August 8, A24 invites moviegoers of all ages to rediscover the 8th grade with a night of FREE screenings in every state. No ratings enforced. [Read more…] about Boulder: Free Screening of Bo Burnham’s ‘Eighth Grade’

The savings are really heating up at the Denver Zoo. Animal lovers will want the weather to hit record highs in August, thanks to this wild promo.
