CDC wants to give original 101 Dalmatians "R" rating

Because it depicts tobacco use. They want to make every single movie that shows someone smoking rated R. Thanks to these people I finally understand why I smoke, these god damn movies! I couldn't figure it out but now it all makes sense. I guess my next step is to stop seeing R rated films, then I'll be able to quit. Thanks, Center for Disease Control and prevention

I couldnt agree more.. ,, it should be rated X..

 

I don't know why people are outraged.... All movies that have other drugs are rated R (most of the time). And Nicotine is still a drug so why would it be any different?

 

Caffeine is a drug, should coffee and soda drinking constitute an R rating as well?

 

I've never heard of a cup of coffee giving someone cancer..... Use common sense man lol.

 

Movie ratings are fucked.

 

was the stuff in the film specificity labeled tobacco, cause humans can smoke anything ..

 

lmao what movie would be rated R at that point

 

Wonderful... another government agency looking out for what is best for us...

If the government was as concerned about the morals and ethics of its members and its corporate cronies as it purports to be about ours we would likely not be teetering on the verge of economic collapse.

 

If the government was concerned about morals and ethics, congress would be drug tested and all political debates would have the candidate hooked up to a polygraph.

 

No government agency should have any influence on a PRIVATE ratings board.

The rating scale shouldn't even exist.

Why don't we just make it illegal for children to be in movie theaters?

 

Good thinking... I'd like to refine said polygraph to deliver a brief but severe electrical shock when deception is detected. These sessions could be televised... pay per view with proceeds used to pay off the national debt or finance the next war for the just and noble cause of shoving freedom down the throat of another sovereign nation.

 

It would not solve it as it is us warped parents who are buying our children classic films.

The nerve of us to wish for our kids to view those nasty films.

 

U S A! U S A! U S A!

But seriously, we should do this.

 

I feel like a polygraph test that shocks you would have a lot of false positives. But we're doing it to politicians, so whatevs.

 

The CDC has no more authority to rate movies than your local Ministerial Alliance. All it can do is make recommendations. Movies are rated my the Motion Picture Association of America, not a Government agency.

That said, I WANNA CIGARETTE HOLDER JUST LIKE CRUELLA'S AND I WANT IT NOW!

 

What Cruella de Vil and I do in that extra-long car of hers is certainly deserving of said R rating though

She may hate those damn dogs, but she loves my trouser snake

 

the things you say :rofl:

 

The only false positive coming from a polygraph that's hooked to a politician would be from when he or she is taking a breath.
