Must admit that I thought there would be more of an intellectual debate on the concepts raised by Wittgenstein regarding his argument about the meaning of words

Guess I was wrong!

Apparently, after going to appeal, the Australian Censorship Board has downgraded the upcoming film 'Jigsaw' from an "R18+" rating to a "MA15+"

Review Board decision [pdf]

Potentially this could mean that if the film went to appeal in the UK, it may be changed to "15" instead of the "18" it currently has (although it's unlikely, seeing as it's released at the end of the week!)

I have seen all of the 'Saw' films, bar the latest 'Jigsaw'

I can't recall any point where the puppet on screen is actually named 'Billy'

Have I missed it, or is it just something that is only mentioned in production documentaries?

Did Kevin From 'Home Alone' Grow Up to Be Jigsaw? A Deadly Serious Investigation | Hollywood Prospectus

"Home Alone’s impact on modern holiday culture cannot be overstated. But the movie has another legacy, a hidden legacy. So, do you want to play a game?

I’ve been working on this theory for several years, researching, poring over the film. Now, I can say with certainty that Home Alone is in actuality the origin story of Jigsaw, né John Kramer (obviously an alias), the infamous serial killer and mentor to serial killers from the Saw movie series."

the series of Saw films surprisingly with each new part does not take away the interest of viewing. the quality is judged directly by the viewer but I liked absolutely all the series of films.
