I had to write a paper on Censorship for one of my classes. I was wondering how the message board felt about censorship, i thought it would go hand in hand since the movies we watch are mostly gory and violent. By the way im taking a stance against censorship.

I'm totally against any censorship of any kind. Freedom of expression is an essential element of any free society.

seriously, i mean censoring something makes people only want it even more, an addiction for a blood thirst. I guess thats what draws us to horror movies, LOL.

what really pisses me off is when they put gory movies on commerical tv, you have to struggle to understand the dialogue and extensive scene edits.

I absolutely loathe censorship, especially when people try to hide behind some stupid excuse like "it's to protect the chiiiiiiiildreeeeeeen." What the hell ever. Your damn kids shouldn't be watching those movies in the first place. Filmmakers shouldn;t have to censor their movies just because you're too lazy to parent. *Steps off soapbox*

This is one of the reasons why kids today are so damn soft, have no concept of reality, and have an unending sense of entitlement. They grow up with an unrealistic, "romanticized" view of the world.

Censorship? Any company that tries to censor something is run by Nazis! That includes you, MPAA! Curse the fourth reich known as the Motion Picture Association of America!!!

I also agree. That piece of shit MPAA censored and ruined way too many good movies. It's also their fault that we won't get to see so much gore footage in so many movies they were cut from. They're the reason why the gore footage from Friday the 13th's part 2, 3, 4, 5, and 8 were completely lost and can't be found, except in photograph. They're the reason the business end of early DVD never saw that the studios released Scream or Nightmare on Elm Street 5 uncut on DVD. And why there were 2 versions of Dead Alive on VHS. And why the 100/104 minute version of Dead Alive isn't on DVD yet.
