Quote:Let's see what would be more scarring: seeing a woman's unclothed body during a romantic scene, or seeing that same body benig brutally hacked to death with rusty knives (but still fully clothed!).
Yeah, I don't think children should be seeing either of those, but I see what you mean... Perhaps the rating system needs additional sub-ratings of S, V, etc. to differentiate between the types of "mature" content a movie might have (similar to the TV rating system), which I guess goes back to your original point about the current rating system being flawed...
Quote:Similarly, I wonder if it would OK to show a guy getting shot...as long as he doesn't scream "F---!" as his newly-limp body hits the ground.
That would get by in a PG-13 if it was only the first or second time it was said...
All right, now back to the original topic...which has barely been mentioned since the third post in the thread.
