Would be interesting to mention on this page what is usually the impetus for re-rating a film. I assume it's always because the distributor wants to re-release a movie and perhaps get a wider audience, and never because the MPAA voluntarily decides to go back and review past decisions.

Breillat's Romance

I'm wondering if Catherine Breillat's Romance was ever given an NC-17 rating. The article on it says that an edited version was given an R rating, but doesn't say if the original cut was submitted to the MPAA. Robert Happelberg 20:42, 24 Oct 2004 (UTC)

  • The MPAA's ratings database, filmratings.com, only lists an R-rated version, so the original cut was probably never submitted. (Also, I fixed the link to the movie in your comment; hope you don't mind.) —tregoweth 23:16, Oct 24, 2004 (UTC)

Pulp Fiction?

As far as I know, this movie was never rated NC-17. The only source I could find supporting the claim was IMDb, which will print almost anything its readers send in and is very unreliable. --PenguinJockey 04:11, 17 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Unrated Films (UR)

Is there a page of unrated films on wikipedia???

Questions

1. Some of the films here (Eyes White Shut Perfect Blue) are not listed as being originally NC-17 or X in the main source. Should they be taken out?

2. Should Color of Night be on the list? The article o it says it was originally rated NC-17.

Cleanup

This page is full of redundant wikilinks. If an article is linked to once, it does not need to be linked again. I will work on this some other time, unless someone else wants to fix it. Mynameisnotpj (talk) 03:24, 22 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I cleaned up until G. I noticed that a lot of the sentences were missing periods, so if I noticed it, I put them in, but I probably missed a lot. There are also several occurrences of years over and over again, but it is harder for me to remember which ones are there already and not. After I finish with this first sweep, I will come back and start over looking for those two things.
Well, that was a pain in the butt. I have gone through and gotten rid of most of the redundant wikilinks. What I need to do now is get rid of redundant years, wikilink a few movie titles and make sure that there are periods at the end of all of the titles. I will also be adding a tag for citations, as many movies are missing them. Mynameisnotpj (talk) 03:26, 23 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
All of the movies have wikilinks now. I will have to go through and make sure that they all link to the right article. Then I have to get rid of redundant dates and add periods to a few sentences. Mynameisnotpj (talk) 17:05, 23 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Clerks

Clerks does not fit into the description of films listed on this page. It was originally rated NC-17 but changed to R but the film was not recut. 172.131.248.55 (talk) 06:18, 23 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This list is for films that were, at point or another, rated as NC-17, and may have been either appealed to R, edited down to an R, or released as NC-17. Clerks fits that criteria. Socby19 (talk) 18:59, 6 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The Groove Tube

Hello, i've read that The Groove Tube was originally rated X, does anyone know if this is true?
