Reading your post had me think about the slogan "Movies are greater thanever.". It may be that some Group(s) are prejudice to that slogan and begandegrading it. I haven't visited a Movie Theater in years. When I am watching a movie on TV, if it is rated TV-14 I go to imdb.org to see what Rating that website says the movie was released as. Many many TV-14 are not PG-13 they are rated R. Then I scroll down to see what topics under the Family friendly (Ican't recall the actual heading) are listed at. I makes me wonder why the U. S. Federal Communications Commission allows R rated movies being shown by the local TV Stations. But Iam a person who likes watching The Andy Griffith Show.
