Until very recently I was aware that something called “Hannah Montana” existed but didn’t know anything more than that. Then someone on this very message board asked what it was about and my ignorance was fought.
The key to escaping it is to not pay any attention to it. Not having children helps too.
Everybody who has ever sat in the back seat of my car.
Exactly. Is this really a question?
Mine is male, and too young for this so I’ve mostly escaped it. (Thank goodness)
I know Hannah Montana is some girl, who sings, and parents go crazy to buy her tickets… and now I know she’s Billy Ray Cyrus’ daughter. That’s it.
But even the Wiggles wear seatbelts in their big red car! If Hannah Montana can’t be that kind of example what will happen to the world!? Won’t someone think of the children!?
I’m pretty sure you misinterpreted the statement. Phrased differently, it would read “Shit, how long before Tom Cruise’s kid is old enough to make a mistake (on which the media wolves can pounce)?”
Well, damn. I guess we’d better just raise all kinds of hell with film makers, as pritnear every car in which actors are shown is (covered to protect those of tender spirit)
bereft of an inside rear view mirror!
Not enough rollyeyes
I’m trying to think of how that premise is any stupider than Superman being unrecognizable once he puts on a pair of glasses, but I’m failing.
I hope I wouldn’t have been into this crap as a kid.
Everyone who has ever seen a Ford F-150 25 feet above the median flipping across from the Southbound to the Northbound lane and landing upside right in front of them causing all the cars in that lane to slam on their breaks.
Whew!
I guess that leaves me out. I only started wearing my seatbelt in the front seat because Maryland started passing out points on people getting tickets for not wearing them.
I know it’s safer with them, but I don’t care for wearing them anyway.
I find it extremely unlikely that any kid would refuse to wear their seatbelt just because of a single instance showing some annoying TV star not wearing one. If there is proof that this could ever be the case, I fear the world is not worth living in.
Superman had the power of super hypnosis to ensure that no one recognized him in his glasses.
No, really.
Because then we were bogged down in a war we could not win, there was trouble in the middle east, gas prices were through the roof, our president was lying to us our vice president was a crook, the economy was in recession…[scratches head]…hey we are back in the 70’s!

That’s easy. The guy’s wearing blue tights. Is anyone actually looking at his face? 
Are you saying that the rest of these things are in the Hannah Montana movie? Apparently this will be a better film than I was anticipating.
By the time someone is old enough to watch this movie the wearing of the seat belt is either a habit or it isn’t. If it isn’t then their parents weren’t making them wear it enough anyway. My teens probably couldn’t not wear a seatbelt, it’s so automatic for them to put one on.
Hannah Montana is such a cartoon name. Until my friend’s daughter recently made my friend go to the movie I thought she was someone kind of like Dora The Explorer.
I can’t wait until this safety craze wears thin and the pendulum starts swinging the other way. That’s going to be fun.
Personally, I’m waiting for the inevitable Hannah Montana decline into drugs and alcohol and bastard babies. I’m going to thoroughly enjoy that.
Batman: Robin, you haven’t fastened your safety bat-belt.
Robin: We’re only going a couple of blocks.
Batman: It won’t be long until you are old enough to get a driver’s license, Robin, and you’ll be able to drive the Batmobile and other vehicles. Remember motorist safety.
Robin: Gosh, Batman, when you put it that way…
I really hope she doesn’t. I saw the Hannah Montana movie (I have an eight year old daughter), and Miss Cyrus seems like a fairly sweet well balanced girl. Like Lindsay Lohan once did. It would be such a shame to see her become Brittney Spears.
She may have a better chance than most. The enjoyable thing for me as a grown up is watching how much fun Billy Ray Cyrus makes of himself. I think he has a pretty good understanding of the industry - better than most showbiz parents - and he’s pretty grounded.
There is a point in the film where he is talking to Mylie about the musicians she has backing her up and he says something like “these are all top shelf musicians, honey, and let me tell you, coming from a guy whose played every Indian casino from one coast to the other, that’s sayin something.”
Don’t get too excited. The only one with any nude scenes is Bobby Bare.
