R-Rated Blood And PG Decapitations

Comments

Also Suede, if my snazzy icon wasn't enough to get you to watch the Sasori movies; they're so much better than you would've expected. (And definitely R-rated.) Just the first three movies though: the 1972 Female Prisoner (or Convict) 701: Scorpion, Jailhouse 41 and Beast Stable. Then the original director left and they tried and failed to turn it into a franchise (which got rebooted even quicker than Spiderman).

Having given it some thought I'd say the main ratings system should only concern itself with keeping (unattended) kids out of certain movies, not with giving advice to parents. It should be determined by the government, so that there can be transparency and accountability, and it should be based on what experts think is (likely to be) psychologically harmful for children. Because I don't think you can (or should) get a nationwide consensus on how to raise kids. One rating system can't hope to accomodate all parents and their children, so I think there should be multiple systems, organised by like-minded people. By now those with young kids are internet-savvy enough to find websites, figure out which ones work for them and make contributions of their own. Which I'm sure is already happening, it's just that the US is still stuck with the MPAA having way more power than it should, over both audiences and filmmakers.

You should check out the documentary This Film is Not Yet Rated. It does a pretty good job of highlighting the current problems with the MPAA rating system, the biggest being they're very closed shopped about it. They don't make public their guidelines so it's impossible to tell why they give a movie one rating and another movie a different one.

i'm a bit weirded out when i watch a PG-13 and and they slip an F bomb in the film, (Big trouble in little china, Lincoln, Bernie. to name a few I've watched recently) it takes a great film that i'd like to share with friends and then gives me second thoughts if i want to. i guess there thinking is if it's only once or twice then kids wont ask their parents what that word means.
