I can't believe this, they list smoking in MPAA ratings now. I don't smoke but still...what the fuck?
Hey man this is the new world we live in. We have to adjust or face madness. I remember when I used to watch "The Sandlot" and just as our hero is about to be chased by the big dog he scream "Holy shit!!" You'd never see that in a kids film today.
It's utterly ridiculous, but whaddya gonna do?
@Terminal_83-you right man, the more we complain(for good reasons), the more stupid they are going to get.
@optimusprime24 we live in a world where everyone doesn't want to offend anyone, we're all pussies now. I agree it's all so idiotic, and this new generation of soft shelled individuals are doomed.
What I don't get is there are so many of us that aren't retarded, so why do we lose out? It's just ridiculous that the minority get to dictate how and what we experience. PC is fucking bullshit and all this does is make us all soft.
The first time I saw that rating reason was on "The Water Horse" and I thought it was just because it was a sort of british kid or something. But then it kept showing up. Doesn't make sense.
Did you see the rating for The Karate Kid? They list "bullying". Seriously.
Remember when even PG flicks had tits in them? Those were such good times. When did we become such utter pussies that "smoking" and "bullying" are so objectionable we have to warn people about them in the ratings?
