Sorry if i misspell your country name wrong... anyways mpaa in los angles say it was base of six swear words and to bleep them out would take away the message the movies trying to make. Second the company who help make the movie twc tried to appeal and lost by one vote...

Yet the mpaa change a movie about iraq from "r to pg13 that has 42 f bombs.... than there a moive that called peak rated r and change to pg 13...

so what is with this??? mpaa is a joke here in the usa. we got 17 year old doing petition didn't work and another group is petition themselfs and i called them It won't be shown in school cause of the "r" rated that is THE TARGET AUDIENCE

This is insane, have you ever heard kids of this age on the street or the mall?
swear words are like popcorn to kids today they are just words almost without
meaning. To curtail the most important message before young people today
shows how draconian America has become. Music, and art is saying a whole
lot worse and for six swear words the entire message gets scrapped. No
wonder their education system is falling behind, they are living in the eighteenth
century. Even this country needs a kick in the butt PG for a movie about
bullying. What are these people thinking.

That would be a good thing. America has the same serious problem that we do
when it comes to bullies. A solution really has to be found for this problem too
many kids are dying for no real reason. What a waste, and when someone does
come up with something realistic the kids might watch the political correct crowd
and others talk about the colorful language, instead of the important message.

Agreed. A generation of kids watched 9/11 happen on tv at school. If they can handle that they can handle some swears.
