Reading your post had me think about the slogan "Movies are greater thanever.".

It may be that some Group(s) are prejudice to that slogan and begandegrading
it.

I haven't visited a Movie Theater in years.

When I am watching a movie on TV, if it is rated TV-14 I go to  imdb.org to see
what Rating that website says the movie was released as.
Many many TV-14 are not PG-13 they are rated R.

Then I scroll down to see what topics under the Family friendly (Ican't recall
the actual heading) are listed at.
I makes me wonder why the U. S. Federal  Communications Commission allows R
rated movies being shown by the local TV Stations.
But Iam a person who likes watching The Andy Griffith Show.
