@Rambler I take it you got removed as you went into incredibly graphic detailing the events of a movie. Was it Nekromantik, Salo or The Human Centipede?
@Hydra_Spectre
So they just decide the age ratings based off a dart board throw?
Pretty much.
Why else would the Mario Movie get a PG (functionally a 13A here) for cartoon violence, while The Rise of Skywalker gets a G rating even with a closeup of a decapitated alien head and Palpatine's face getting torn off by Force Lightning?
Or how Suzume can get a PG for some "damns" and "hells" while a local romcom can get a G rating even with numerous F-bombs.
Some of the live action Resident Evil films even received a PG rating fully uncut, while The Batman was somehow too violent for a PG and had to be R-13.
I know they even once attempted to ban Schindler's List in its original release for a brief and not-too explicit sex scene and non-sexualised nudity, claiming the film was pornographic (they ultimately allowed the film an uncut release, but a very limited release). Yet they are A-OK with locally made softcore porn films, sometimes even giving them PG ratings and allowing them to air on TV fully uncut.

@Professor_Plumber I take it you're taking about my last comment in the thread on Nekromantik, Salo or The Human Centipede?
Hmm...well Visitor Q is disturbing for reasons that would have my post removed, Ichi The Killer makes the Saw films look like Minions, Cannibal Holocaust is all in the title but is a rubbish movie, I'm a big fan of Raw a true drama which uses gore clevely about a vegeratian who eats meat for the first time, Antichrist has William Defoe going mad which is always fun, The Skin I Live In has the Puss In Boots actor invent fancy new skin but he needs to test it out, Tetsuo: The Iron Man has lots of iconic imagery, Bone Tomahawk is just a cowboy film until suddenly that last act, A Serbian Film is rubbish but is often called the most disturbing movie going for a reason and and I will let you know about any other horrible films that will give you nightmares I can think of.
They were less recommendation of good but rather recommendations of disturbing movies. However I stand by my recommendation of Raw though, a really good sisterhood/coming of age drama rather than a schlock fest.
@Rambler I don't think I've seen any of those. I know of Bad Timing becuase I found it weird Art Garfunkel chose that to try acting in and Eyes Without A Face has been on my list to see for ages. Begotten is a new one to me, it sounds quirky!
I want no spoilers for Across the Spider Verse, but when it comes out tomorrow and someone watches it, tell me if you see the Spider Man from either Earth’s Mightiest Heroes (TV Show that has that one messed up episode where everyone dies, scarred me for life back in the day) or spectacular spider man from the tv show of the same name. Both are near and dear to me heart
@Owl1
Spiderverse 2 made me want to die 100/10
GOTG vol 3 made me want to die in a different way. 6/10
I will never emotionally recover from spiderverse 2
I fear no man
but that thing:
The carrot minigame from bowser's inside story
it scares me
I had a flipping panic attack from that work of art. It isn’t a movie it’s art. Meowwolf has nothing on spiderverse.
And now for the final nail in the hammer:
Deltarune is a 4/100 compared to this piece of art.
From me that’s like the highest form of praise and I still can’t believe I’m saying it.
Spiderverse 2 takes a crap on deltarune.

@Owl1 part one of a very long post 1THE ART DIRECTION: you know how people complained about the frame rate of the first one being “too slow” well they kept the frame rate the same until the final scene right after Gwen’s police dad finds out that she is spider woman (who he was looking for the entire film because he thought she killed her best friend and the dads son who’s name happens to be Peter Parker) so when the frame rate went up you knew something was going to go wrong. Also in the art department the way the styles clash with each other is PERFECT. my favorite example is when the William Shakespeare version of vulture fights the comic book styled spider men. There is more that I don’t want to spoil but will in the next post so proceed with caution!!
