Kayt's CAP Compendium and Drinking Game

Thomas A. Carder, the founder of the CAP report, believes that there is a link between the degradation of Media Values and Moral Values. He has taken it upon himself to review and rate movies ina a manner that addresses issues of God and Christianity. Each review begins with a general overview/thoughts on the movie. Next, the film receives two specific scores based what he terms the WISDOM (WantonViolence/Crime, Impudence/Hate, Sex/Homosexuality, Drugs/Alcohol, Offense to God, and Murder/Suicide respectively) scale. At the end of the review all the given offenses in the movie are listed by type and specific offence.

I found the web sight after someone recommended that I read the South Park: Bigger, Longer and Uncut review. Any review that starts with the phrase "*South Park* is another movie straight from the smoking pits of Hell." is destined to be entertaining.

However what entertainment I received was mitigated by the fact that Thomas had slaved away on these reviews and all I was getting out of them was some chuckles, head shakes, and wonder as to how someone could be so narrow minded. I decided that if Thomas A. Carder spent all his time bringing me this information I'd DAMNED well find a use for it.

And now I have found a use: Intoxication!

I feel that the CAP report web page is a fine provider of drinking games! Now just imagine that you and your buddies rent a movie and desire to become inebriated (this is hypothetical of course). When you and your posse return home you can NOW print out the CAP review for the movie you've rented. Skip the general overview, it's better once you've seen the movie and go directly to the list of specific immoral moments within the movie. This section will be your guide to drunken fun!

Now, for relatively moral movies, such as Babe: Pig in the City, or George of the Jungle you can choose to drink for each time an offence occurs. However if you used such tactics for, say, Full Metal Jacket (which I don't believe he's reviewed) you'd DIE. If your movie is one you know is going to be full of evil then divide the drinking cue up among your cohorts.

On July 22, 1999 my friends and I put this game to the test using George of the Jungle. We learned to our great glee that half the fun of the ratings were in our own interpretation of the offences ("was THAT inappropriate eye movement?") and the rest came from our mastery of creating new offences ("I call inappropriate cross-species touching!").

Overall, I'd say it's a fine use of the CAP report and that if used as such, you should probably e-mail the CAP folks and thank them for providing such an interactive page.

They'll love hearing from you.
