El Hombre Sin Nombre Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 I don’t think it has anything to do with not offending these “buttercups” of yours. Have you ever seen a movie warning and walked out? Or the warnings in someway influenced your choice in movies? Maybe, but most likely not. Now have you ever decided to not let your children watch a movie based on the warnings? The warnings are for children, not adults. Some people don’t want their children exposed to violence. Some don’t want their children exposed to sex. Some don’t want their children exposed to cussing. That all makes sense. But all three of those kill less people than smoking does. So if some parents don’t want their children exposed to people smoking, how does it affect you? Perhaps they aren’t the ones that should be called buttercups.

Yankee, SASS #266 Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 I noticed that this policy has been in effect since 2007. The rating of the movie is based whether the smoking fits into the historical era of the film as one of the criteria. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
