Depictions of smoking in movies will now be a factor when deciding what a film's rating will be, possibly making a PG-13 movie R-rated, the Motion Picture Association of America said yesterday. The policy affects only new movies.

Along with violence, depictions of sex, adult language and other content considerations, ratings organizations will examine new releases to determine if they glamorize smoking or if it is pervasive through the films, even among adults. Underage smoking has always been considered when rating a film.

thats sweet. because there is smoking, it could be r rated.

sorry al, UHF could become less family friendly.

Yeah, but kids dont need to be seeing rated R movies

why? i'm not saying that they should, but a lot of R movies are only rated that way because of language or "partial" nudity, both of which are already on network tv.

yeah, even when people are texting, the room is usually dark enough to where a phone glows like the damn sun.

Please dont start on this subject with me...seriously. Im one to believe that kids should maintain their innocense as long as possible. I wouldnt let my kids watch shows on tv that are suggestive. Its easy to monitor what kids watch on tv at home, but if I drop my 15 year old off at the movies with her friend, I dont want her watching Eyes Wide Shut.
