Great now we just need the MPAA or who ever is making the rating to adopt this system and we can finally be rid of all the BS about a movie getting a pg-13 rating because a woman might flash her breasts for a brief second or two.

Great now we just need the MPAA or who ever is making the rating to adopt this system and we can finally be rid of all the BS about a movie getting a pg-13 rating because a woman might flash her breasts for a brief second or two.

According to the article:

Perhaps only three categories are needed: "G," for young audiences, "T" for teenagers, and "A" for adults. These categories would be not be keyed to specific content but would reflect the board's considered advice about a film's gestalt and intended audience. At a time when literally any content can find its way into most American homes, what's the point of singling out theatrical films? It's time to admit we've lost our innocence.

Don't you think it'd be difficult to classify movies into these three alone? Still, appreciate the article.
