Why so ?

Religion

 

[Miggs]

?? To which point?

Pretty much all of it. But the Buddhism part stands out.

The meaning of 'Rosebud'?

lmao.

hotttnickkk trying to soak up any legitimately good piece of media.....


maybe it's time to head back to Adele and 'epic' films such as Say Anything.

Thanks for the recommendations, guys. However, with only very rare exceptions, I generally don't watch rated R movies unless they are eg. edited for TV.

wow, you're still living in the 60s? Even the most devout people I know understand that the rating system is crap, and therefore that following its line is, well, ridiculous. There are more 'boundary-pushing' things said on this site every hour than in many R-rated films.

Which you think is what exactly?

I don't take the mpaa ratings as gospel, but what's wrong with setting personal boundaries? It's sad you don't see that as something to be respected.

Nothing is wrong with setting personal boundaries. But you aren't setting that boundary; you're letting someone else set it for you. That's very different. Surely you see that.

More than 90% of films are trash, regardless of the rating. But of the 10% remaining, the clear majority of them have an R-rating. You may not be missing much, but you are actually missing the opportunity to see for yourself and set your own boundary.

I guess you didn't see my "I don't take mpaa ratings as GOSPEL" and my "I GENERALLY don't watch r rated movies" comments, then. (emphasis added)

 

[colton]

That being said, the things that trigger R ratings, such as language, nudity, graphic violence, etc, are generally the things I don't want in the movies I watch. So your comment that "the rating system is crap" is incorrect for me. It does have substantial value.

I see those comments for what they are (so far, at least): empty generalities. Why don't you tell me the value you find in mpaa ratings, from your perspective. I'm obviously having a hard time reading your mind, like you appear to want me to.

what specific kinds of bad language, nudity, and violence? I've seen PG and PG13 films that depend on blatant stereotyping; I've seen scantily clad young female 'objects' in PG13 films; violence is now the norm even in Disney films.
