Fact is the BBFC ratings have become increasingly liberal down the years (a few years ago who would have thought Last House would ever be released uncut?) and if anything these days the general mood is swinging towards 'more' censorship (although this is usually of the internet rather than home videos). Since most Hollywood films are carefully tuned to meet the requirements of an R-Rating (ie. plenty of blood but strictly no female nipples), surely the MPAA would be a far more relevant target for this sort of campaign.

Depends on how you look at it but the MPAA have already came under fire from the Anonymous Branch in the US (many, many, many times), so thats already covered. I contacted some people in the group and got them into my new Censor Fighting Collective to go against this whole sort of censorship thing (Project Crush the Censor was my idea) however the way they choose to go about it is their choice. Though I see them based on the videos content targeting the Tabloids and Media-Watch more than the BBFC, if they move against us again. Presumably the 2012 incident they mention is the whole Christopher Tookey vs HC2 controversy, with Media-watch going on about how they have a problem with these films. https://www.facebook.com/groups/1436...463/?ref=br_tf |

I didn't watch past the halfway point of the video because the computerised voice was annoying and the information it was delivering had been covered so much better in the Video Nasties: Moral Panic, Censorship & Videotape documentary. One of the most annoying aspects of film classification nowadays is distributed cutting films in order to secure a lower rating from the BBFC in order to maximise box office takings. There was a really interesting presentation from someone from the BBFC at the Festival of Fantastic Films, talking about what goes into decisions and pointing out that films (like Horns, which was initially given an 18 certificate and trimmed by the distributor to secure a 15 certificate) are now censored by distributors.
