From April 23rd
This was an interesting and very informative article. I personally know how video games are rated and that they have a specific set of guidelines to follow and I know movies had a specific set of guidelines for ratings, but I was still unaware of the Motion Pictures Association of America (M.P.A.A.). These guys are crazy, I mean the volume of work they do is mind-boggling. Honestly, the numbers shown in the article don't even do justice to the work they do. I mean 2,640 internet ads? Please I've found more movie ad's than that on one internet site.
A really fun part of this article was the explanation of the MPAA's guidelines. More specifically how they rate movie posters. I really found this minor paragraph to be an intense critque of American media. How sick are Americans that children in peril, animal cruelty, or animals on fire has to be added to the list? Are their really that many people trying to get away with these things? Do people really enjoy these things that much? I know people like offensive things but how many people really enjoy watching Lassie getting set on fire?
