How would a 10-month old do in a (Muppet) movie?

If we were to take C with us to see the Muppets this weekend, would that be a no-no?  If not, is it smarter to take them pre-nap when they are going to get sleepy and pass out, or post-nap when they are alert?  Am I right in thinking that an early screening (before 3pm) would be most kid-friendly?

    We took J to one movie around that age - it wasn't a kid movie, we just reeeally wanted to see it.

    One suggestion - the Montgomery Royal theater is usually pretty empty.  So, you wouldn't have to worry too much about disturbing other people if he gets fussy.

    One of my friends is planning to take her 18-month old to see the Muppets, and she invited us to go, too. I'm still thinking about it and whether it would be a total disaster... lol.  I think you need a Plan B in place, and one or both parents need to be willing to leave the theater with C if he gets too loud. Definitely go to matinee.

    Not my thing at all. If I'm going to pay $10+ for a movie, I want to enjoy it. I couldn't see enjoying it with a 10-month-year old in tow. But maybe your 10-month-year old is more cooperative than mine was.

    Definitely be prepared for having to leave. To me, it's just not worth the trouble or $.

    Have fun! Good luck if you decide to go!

    I wouldn't. I know my kids at 10mo old would not sit still for a movie,  heck, not even for a commercial! They were way too mobile (both walked before 11mo old) and totally not interested in a movie. If anything, it would have over-stimulated them.
