i was wondering about the film selection itself. is anything not allowed? what if i had chosen a porn? or something meh? (what if i had chosen twilight *gasp*)

then it occured to me that whatever you picked, people arent forced to watch. after 2 days of crickets, eventually something else would be chosen.
then i wondered what kind of movie should i choose, battle royale is from 2000 and an awesome movie but as i mentioned, subs and not steaming (i checked). i sorta wanted to see zardoz but not really. should it be something youve never seen?

just finished watching 'this film is not yet rated', interesting documentary... i didnt feel there was a real ending to the film, except to reveal the self-interested parties involved. a ratings system is neccessary for the general public - i myself never really bother with it, but now that i have kids (aged 1 and 2.6) i will probably have to pay attention.
i also think that they way we consume movies has changed and is why i dont bother with ratings. streaming? dvd by mail? pirate it? whatevers. i liked it.
