Penitentiary: Specs Thread

[Hawkmonger]

Discovered a loop hole. Certifications on Arrowdrome releases only apply to main features. As Penitentiary 2 is gonna be an extra feature, the certification doesn't apply to the actual DVD. Whoopy!

How so? Surely the whole thing needs to be put before the BBFC? The 'consumer advise' that 'applies to the main feature only' is just the 'Contains strong sex and violence' bit.

Indeed. Unlike places such as the US, where they can put the extras on as 'not rated', eveything on a UK release, (from menus to audio commentaries) has to be approved and taken into consideration when a certificate is given.

How come the consumers advise for ADs McBain has a little notice stating that the certification apples to main feature only?

Because the consumer advice is the words "Contains strong language and frequent strong violence" not the certificate.

Oh I see! Sorry about that.

Yeah, don't worry, I'm just sorry for you really! Must be really infuriating, especially when the main feature would be rated 15 on its own and it's just the addition of the sequel that's gonna prevent you from seeing it.
