Context and staying under the quota so it's not seen as vulgar and excessive

Who cares? MPAA assholes probably fell asleep and missed one.

>Well cut my dick off and call me Wendy, that's Jason Bourne!

You can get a few uses of "fuck" is it's not being used in a sexual context.

Cause hes not on earth duh

The rule was always one use of a non-sexual "fuck" in a PG-13 movie.

Because Mars is actually Hell

Adventures in Babysitting: Two "fucks", a "rape", multiple uses of "homo", "asshole", and "shit.

Rating: PG-13

I laughed, ty

because of qt comm chick

Shitloads of money and box-office gold as your lead actor.

Where is he? Can we track his cell phone? SOMEBODY GET ME A LOCATION!

Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom:
>Eating monkey brains
>a demonic occult group forcing hearts out of people as the hearts then burn
Rating: PG

Yes I know no R or PG 13 rating existed back then (which I found bizzare that the American industry only had G - PG movies up until the 80's)

It came out in the 80s though. The Based 80s. Only recently did movies with the word fuck get r ratings

He's on Mars, sir!

>Yes I know no R or PG 13 rating existed back then
R rating did, and the first PG-13 movie was either Temple of Doom or Gremlins, I forget.

This is my thesis, man.
This is my closing argument!

fuck sorry yes it did no PG 13 existed dam I am idiot please forgive :(

Incorrect. It's two fucks

Often you'll hear a 2nd fuck inserted needlessly to get their 2 fucks' worth

The MPAA is fickle.

Name the last PG-13 movie you saw that had two uses of "fuck"

Because Damon is a Democrat

Britbong PG-13 (a.k.a. 12A) allows up to 7 uses of fuck depending on context and frequency
also Big has a use of fuck and that's a US PG

The Martian

wow you really didn't think that through.

keke

>It was at this moment that poor user realized he had lost the argument.

Because standards change over time and people view things as less unacceptable. There was a time when you couldn't say ANY fucks in a PG-13 movie. There was a time when you couldn't call someone a dick on network television. But the times, they are a-changin' and the younger generations are less prudish and hung up about "muh evil child-mind-warping bad words" so it becomes more okay to swear in things without jacking up the rating.

>mfw 80% of the jokes were cut from the book
>mfw it was still funnier than anything else in 2015

(.) (.) Look! A pair of boobs!

Because there are really no rules, just the ratings board's opinions about what is acceptable.

You guys are retarded.
The MPAA doesn't have rules for rating.
If they have exact rules, they're a censorship organization and that's obviously not true.
So they have suggestions and guidelines.

Directors submit their movies and they get a rating with no specific details.

Whats the dumbest thing youve seen a movie rated with and for what reason?


I remember Triplets of Belleville getting a PG-13 only because you saw tits for two seconds of the movie. Even though it was pretty G rated stuff

>this triggers the American

Pretty sure Forrest Gump has at least three plus nudity.

Would make sense in an older movie like Airplane! or The Right Stuff, but that was the 90's when they had pretty much settled down the rating rules.
Anyone have an explanation for this one?

*Gump was the 90's. Others were 80's before PG-13 was a thing.

This was PG-13 as well

G and PG are all you need. It's a free fucking country.

General audiences means there's nothing a reasonable person would find objectionable

PG means parents want to monitor what their kids are watching. Which should always be true

Is that where the saying i dont give 2 fucks comes from?

No it originally comes from your mother's response to a misprinted BOGO ad in Coalburners Quarterly

>fuck you, Mars

these lines are so reddit goddamn
