Rated "R" for righteous
"This Movie Is Not Yet Rated" pulls back the curtain on the secretive MPAA movie ratings board, moral "experts" determined to protect little Johnny from pubic hair and bad language.
By Stephanie Zacharek [2006-08-31]

  • you're kidding, right?

    The motion picture industry as the keeper of America's morals? Give me a break.

    These are the people who give us uplifting fare like Saw, Hostel, Freddy vs. Jason and I Know What You Did Last Summer.

    It's ok to show someone taking life; it's not OK to show someone making love.

    Media never influences behavior; it only reflects society’s ills. That’s why corporate America spends billions on advertising and product placement, right?
